video keeps playing when popup closed

julianos · Wed Sep 17, 2008 3:52 am

Hello,
Beginning with highslide, I am using the popup window, in the iframe configuration, to open an html page containing an embed video from youtube.
The problem I encounter is that, when I close the popup, the video keeps playing and we still can hear the sound of it, even though we don't see the window anymore.
Any lead?
Thanks a lot!

Try setting hs.preserveContent = false.

Try inserting the YouTube video with Highslide's builtin Flash capabilities instead, like shown here: http://highslide.com/example-youtube.html

Okay, wmv videos must be put in an iframe to be displayed in Highslide. See http://highslide.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1602 .

No idea - when I opened the iframe there was no video there. Just a heading.

No problem here - I am running the latest Firefox on Vista.

Hi, this worked wonderfully for my local xampp installation, but when I try it on the hosting, the same version (just zip and unzip on the server) it does not work... any ideas where to look at?? It's a if there is a difference in the way javascript is managed but have no clues to start debugging it.

Tks in advance, Willie.

Well, today's my day... I realized the issue was actually that it worked OK with the domainname.com name but was failing with the www.domainname.com, so this would be easily fixed on the web server side by redirecting. Anyway I'd be curious for how would this be...

tks all!!
