dojox.image.Lightbox - dialog rendering is off in IE

[Sam Foster]

For me this manifests itself as the footer toolbar being present in the DOM but not visible. Others have reported other issues - presumably variation is introduced by different css, quirks/standards mode.

[PATCH] [CLA] adds correction to size for border-box box model (i.e. IE and IE7 in quirks mode)

[Sam Foster]

6682_lightbox_20080504.patch has a fairly simplistic patch to the issue I was seeing. Basically, the resizeTo method was setting size on the outer element and not correcting for any padding/border on it. So in IE it ended up being smaller by 2x border, padding width. Ideally, we'd calculate this value rather than hard-code here.

I'm not sure if this is related or not - but I have ie6/ie7 issues with this URL:

​http://www.spiritualpaths.net/sitepages/pid2045.php?ltemplate=image_demo&pageId=2045&item_id=3

If you click the icon to the right of the word "Photo:" a title pane with image thumbnails appears - click one of the images for a lightbox. In firefox2 works like a champ - in ie it either sticks in the lower right or doesn't have a footer. I will try applying sfoster's patch.

A little more information found - if I add &pb_debug_dojo=1 to the end of the URL it loads dojo.js.uncompressed.js (not my build) with debug=true in djConfig. This yeilded some errors in the ie console (see attached image)

Exception in animation handler for: onAnimate [ Error: Invalid argument. ]

Thanks

Think this is a different Lightbox issue - applied sfoster's patch and now the image is in the middle of the page but still with the onAnimate exception and greyed out. (btw, this is against 1.1 release)

Let me know if you want a separate trac filed.

(In [14277]) fixes #6682 - add in padding calculations for IE when in content-box mode to the footer shows up propertly. also makes _LightboxDialog a public class, as it is very useful without the "degradable" dojox.image.Lightbox wrapper
