Hi,
I have a large table of which only few columns are displayed in a primary ARI Data table module in an article (with Search field and pagination).
The first displayed column has hyperlinks. Clicking on one opens a secondary ARI Data table on a secondary page that displays all columns for that one record.
With your great support this works very well (see forum www.ari-soft.com/ARI-Data-Tables/42922-Table-detailed-view.html).

Upon your suggestion I purchased ARI Sexy Lightbox to show the secondary table in a lightbox.
I installed only the module (none of the other plug-ins), activated it and in the settings I set Choose type: Article and set the proper articleID of the secondary page. The other fields were left at default.
My idea was that the plug-in would capture the event of rendering the secondary page with the given ID, and show the page in a lightbox instead of a regular Joomla page.
However, the module makes no effect, no lightbox. The page shows as a Joomla page, as before.
If I put Choose type: Module and set the proper module ID for the secondary module, again, no effect.
I tried the column Format from an earlier post in the forum ("ARI-table working, styles missing lightbox needed"), but that does not work: instead of the hyperlink in the primary module, the text of the Format field is displayed.

To summarize:
- The first column (named ZBNr) Format setting in the primary ARI Data Tables module is:
<a href="index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=68&ZBNr={$value}">{$value}</a>
this works fine without the lightbox
- Lightbox setting Choose type: article, article ID = 68, Link text field left blank (I do not know what to put there).

During the prior forum discussion I mailed you the information to access my site. This is still valid.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello,

Install "ARI Sexy Lightbox" module then install, configure and enable "System - ARI Sexy Lightbox" plugin. After this modify link for details table in the following way:

<a href="index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=68&ZBNr={$value}&TB_iframe=true&width=800&height=600" rel="sexylightbox">{$value}</a>

That's all.

PS: Set "Load" parameter to "Always" in "System - ARI Sexy Lightbox" plugin settings.

Thanks for your prompt reply!

I followed your instructions and now I see the lightbox.
Problem is that the lightbox contains at the top the Joomla page (banner, menu, etc.) with empty article and the article itself (with the table) below it. Of course the lightbox should only contain the article with the table.

My website is in Dutch. Can I replace somewhere the word "Close" by "Sluiten" in the lightbox?

Thanks,
Chris

Use the following code for details link:

<a href="index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=68&ZBNr={$value}&tmpl=component&TB_iframe=true&width=800&height=600" rel="sexylightbox">{$value}</a>

If you want to change button labels, it requires to modify images. See buttons.png image in sub-folder for selected theme in <joomla_directory>/modules/mod_arisexylightbox/includes/js/sexyimages/ folder.

It works! Great!
Thank you very much for the prompt support.
