Hi Sam,
thanks... and you're right, without js the mail link is not created. I
found, however, safe_mail is working very well; since its installation
in this page, i receive far less spam mails.

Shadowbox: is one of the greatest script i've seen so far mostly
because of its smart plugin detection mechanism, ease of use and
options.
For the SWF files: i already asked Michael to consider an automated
preload of HUGE flash works: in my portfolio page i have (as you've
seen) two large (and old) flash experiments, both over 2Mb (FCO and
Learjet31). FCO was made two days before my departure to Amsterdam for
a short (but intense) weekend with the friend on the right (i'm on the
left).... weel, simply trying to load them work as expected with
shadowbox, but they're HUGE and user won't see anything until they're
completely downloaded. pretty annoying, one can close the window
thinking there's an error.

So i was forced to call those huge swf file inside an HTML template
(instead of linking directly) and on the HTML i have the well-known
SWFObject script that calls a preloader:

var so = new SWFObject("../../preloader.swf", "sotester", "550",
"550", "7", "#FFF");
so.addParam("scale", "noscale");
so.addParam("salign", "lt");
so.addVariable("movieToLoad", "pilots.swf");
so.write("flashcontent");


the preloader calls "pilots.swf" and you see the preloader (a user get
an idea of what's going on...and maybe will wait till the end).

That process should be automated in this way:
<a
rel="shadowbox;width=400;height=300;preload=true;version=7;bgcolor=#FFF"
class="option" title="pilots" href="media/flash/res/pilots.swf">FCO</
a>

Shadowbox should read the params in the rel attribute, and act
accordingly.
there's an issue however that may lead to a no-fly decision: the
framerate.
As far as i know, imported movies in flash WILL run at the same
framerate as the IMPORTER clip. If i have a "cartoon" made at 12fps,
importing that with a preloader will make it run at the same FPS set
in the preloader (eg: 30fps).
There is no way to dynamic change the framerate...other tan that yes,
shadowbox rocks!


Ciao
GC
