Powerslide Pro in IE6 and text colour in lightbox

Is there a way of specifically formatting the Powerslide Pro module in IE6? As far as I can see, the shaded background of the text is missing. See maxbingham to get an idea of what I mean. Also, is there a way of changing the text color at the bottom of the pictures that come up in the lightbox? At the moment, it's black on a black background. I can't see an obvious way of changing it...

Lumo replied Good News and Bad News

Well, lets start with the bad news - we don't support support IE6 - and neither does even Microsoft anymore... this is not due to being spiteful or anything like that - its just that you almost have to re-write an entire sites code just for IE6 - when people should not be using that old donkey anymore ;)

That shaded background is a transparent image (which IE6 does not support) so your only option there would to place a solid color - I can help you with that if you like...

As to your lightbox text - this should be a color - do not know why it is not in your site, but easy to fix - just open up your Power Slide CSS file in your powerslide module css folder and add this to the bottom of the file:

#lbCaption {color: red }

Obviously set the color to whatever color you would like. Hope these answers help you get sorted out!

Maxer replied Wow, so quick!

Thanks very much for your really quick reply... Wow! No worries on the IE6 issue. I know its now seriously out of date and many don't support it. I just wanted to check if there was a solution anyway. I will give the caption solution a go and see what happens. I will let you know what happens.

Maxer replied Works Perfectly, Thanks!

Nice. Managed to get the captions showing in the light box. Added #lbCaption {color: #FFCC00 } at the base of the CSS and it's working a treat.
