Fancybox 1.3.4 not working on ie6/ie7

Hi guys,
The other day I noticed there was a new version of Fancybox, the Fancybox 1.3.4. Initially, I was using the Fancybox 1.3.1 for all our websites.
Seeing that, I decided to update the files and quite surprisingly (or not !) it didn’t work on Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7.
Theres’ definitely an issue with the CSS, could even be the last release of jQuery library.
My advice: not use the Fancybox 1.3.4 for now (if you want to make it work on IE).
I tried few things but didn’t really get the time to work in depth on it.
I’m going to update this post as soon as I have an IE6/IE7 fix.
I’ll keep you posted,
J.

How to secure your ajax controller for codeigniter/php

This is a basic security test that I thought about last week. In my websites, I have an AJAX controller where I put all my Ajax functions (eg autocomplete, email check, etc ).
Before last week I wasn’t protecting the functions from a classic call via browser.
For some functions it was not a big deal because I was sending data in POST but for those in GET, it was more problematic. So I added a security check in my constructor. From now on, I’m 99% (for Josh) sure that these functions are called only via XMLHTTPREQUEST.
