RokBox

Please note that RokBox is not part of the template but is an independent download from http://www.rocketwerx.com/products/rokbox/overview.

RokBox, the successor of our popular RokZoom plugin, is a mootools powered JavaScript slideshow that allows you to quickly and easily display multiple media formats including images, videos (video sharing services also) and music. RokBox provides a theme system that allows you to create your own custom ones to fit your websites design. It includes two predefined themes, a Light theme and a Dark theme that will fit seamlessly into your site design. RokBox is as easy as pie to install and customize, providing an easy way to create your own custom themes for it.

RokBox comes in 3 formats. A standalone HTML/JavaScript solution for inclusion in any website or page; A Joomla 1.0 plugin, and a Joomla 1.5 plugin. Each Joomla! plugins come with a system and a content plugin.

We highly recommend using RokBox in Joomla 1.5 for optimal performance and ease of use.
