So I have been toying with the Fancybox overlay lightbox clone. (personally I prefer shadowbox but it performs less than stellar on a mobile device right now)
I updated to the newest version for a little tweaking I am doing on my store site. I always try new stuff in a temp folder just in case. I copy and pasted the code exactly how they tell you to off the website. It looks the same as the old version save for one folder in the paths and the version number. However IT WOULD NOT WORK! No matter what I tried. It worked fine with the old version. (I say old it's 2.0.3 to 2.0.5)
Finally after getting some donuts from that crazy Cambodian place and an hour of wanting to stab my monitor with a pizza cutter I thought "Hey let's delete this backslash (/) in front of the paths because I am out of options and sanity". Guess what. IT FUCKING WORKED AFTER THAT!
The old version it worked fine with the "/" in front of the path. That is exactly what they show on the examples on the website AND the instructions. However as soon as it got on my server all logic went out the damn window.
What possible functionality BS change is this? I don't get it at all. Just don't get me started on the easing in animation. I needed extra code to make that work.
Hey Developers: when you "improve" something it's supposed to be an IMPROVEMENT!
I'm gonna eat more jungle donuts now...
