Demos
Below you will find some examples of the syntax used for a variety of RokBox functions.
At any time, you can switch between Light theme and Dark theme by clicking on the buttons below.
Image - Local
This demo will load a local image and automatically create a thumbnail thanks to "Content - RokBox".
Since album is not specified, you won't see arrows appear, so you cannot navigate through other RokBox links.
Syntax
{rokbox title=|Audi RS8 :: Sample Caption for RS8 Image| size=|561 350|}images/rokbox/demo/rs8.jpg{/rokbox}
Image - Remote
This demo will load a remote image.
Thumbnail maker functionality cannot generate thumbnails of remote images, it functions only for local ones. For this remote image we're going to specify a local thumbnail we've created on purpose.
Syntax
{rokbox title=|Vauxhall VXR8| size=|450 271| thumb=|images/rokbox/demo/vxr8_thumb.jpg|}http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/05/vxr8_newhi012_450-op.jpg{/rokbox}
Audio - mp3
This demo will load and play a local mp3 file. It could of have been remote also.
From now on we're going to specify an album to each demo, so we can navigate through them. Pay attention at the way we have specified the caption description, there's no caption title.
Syntax
{rokbox title=|RocketTheme promo| thumb=|images/rokbox/demo/mp3.jpg| size=|250 15| album=|demo|}images/rokbox/demo/rockettheme.mp3{/rokbox}
