Slimbox issues

Just installed the Slimbox plugin for Joomla 1.5.25. Using this on a development site. I've figured out how to insert the code into an article and the modal window works correctly. I'm having 2 issues with the plugin
1. When the popup image is accessed close to the top of the template window the slideshow image and part of the menu at the top show on top of the image. If the popup is accessed on the page without the top part showing it opens fine (no overlay of anything - hope this is clear!)

2. I would like to be able to align the text either to the right or left of the image in the editor and article. Can't seem to figure out how to do that.

Here is the code as entered in the editor. (JCE 2):

Code: Select all

<div style="text-align: center;">{slimbox images/stories/using_slimbox/test/slimbox_test1_large.jpg, images/stories/using_slimbox/test/slimbox_test1_thumb.jpg, Test for slimbox and Joomla - use x or click anywhere outside the image to close}(Click to enlarge)</div>
<div>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Donec quam felis, ultricies nec, pellentesque eu, pretium quis, sem. Nulla consequat massa quis enim. Donec pede justo, fringilla vel, aliquet nec, vulputate eget, arcu.

Aenean vulputate eleifend tellus.</div>
(above edited for clarity)
I realize that I have the slimbox call and the text in separate divs. This was for testing purposes. When I combine everything in just one div I still can't figure out how to make the slimbox thumb appear on either the right or left side of the text as I can normally can when just inserting an image.

Thanks for any help with this.
