Question

I’m trying to get fancybox to open a php file; the file contains this code <?php echo "hi"; ?>.
Now when I set the image href attribute to a jpeg file it loads fine. But when I set it to a php file it doesn’t load. Can I have help trying to get it to load a php file.

<a class= "fancyimg" href="http://mydomain.com/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4/count.php" ><img src="http://mydomain.com/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4/fancyimg2.jpg">

Here is part of my code

       <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {

        $(".fancyimg").fancybox({
            'overlayShow'   : false,
            'transitionIn'  : 'elastic',
            'transitionOut' : 'elastic'
        });
    });
</script>

Use type attribute of fancybox as below to open php file.

$(".fancyimg").fancybox({
 'width'        : '75%',
 'height'       : '75%',
 'autoScale'        : false, 
 'type'         : 'iframe',
 'overlayShow'   : false,
 'transitionIn'  : 'elastic',
 'transitionOut' : 'elastic'
});
