[TYPO3-dam] New extension "damlightbox" - sounds interessting?

Hi Ron,

  data is solved. So possibly some other extension causes the problem.

Would be interesting to know which one it was. Do you install something 
exts after damlightbox? If yes those might be potential candidates...

Then my next guess is that something's wrong with the CONTENT object 
which executes the damlighbox template at damlightbox.10.10. It seems 
that it doesn't get rendered... Please check the following:

1) In the imagelinks that open the lightbox there should at least be two 
parameters: &content=XY&img=X

The first one transfers the UID of the current content element to the 
damlightbox.10.10 element which retrieves the param via {GPvar:content} 
in its select part. To debug, you can do the following:

damlightbox.10.5 = TEXT
damlightbox.10.5.data = GPvar:content

If the param is successfully retrieved you should see it in the 
lightbox. If not, something is wrong in

tt_content.image.20.1.imageLinkWrap.typolink.additionalParams.cObject.dataWrap

BTW: Check if you have another extensions or static TS included which 
changes the TS under tt_content.image.20.1.imageLinkWrap. As it says in 
the manual: "Include the static TypoScript of this extension AFTER all 
other TypoScript that changes tt_content.image and tt_content.textpic 
(this of course includes css_styled_content)."

2) Does the path in damlightbox.10.10.renderObj.20.template.file point 
to the correct file.

Hope this helps solving the "blank" whitebox. Cheers,
Torsten
