CGSmartImage with Fancybox returns corrupt file

[rodfarias]

Hello.
I'm trying to implement a gallery of images with CGSmartImage and jquery Fancybox. Documentation for CGSmartImage give the following example, including any filters:

Code: Select all

<a rel='simple_album' class="fancybox" href="{CGSmartImage src=$file notag=1 noembed=1}">
{CGSmartImage src=$file}
</a>

The thumbnail is generated OK, but the large file is not displayed in the popup as an image, but as a ugly sequence of characters.
The problem is that Fancybox displays correctly the file if you provide the appropriate extension (jpg, png ...), but CGSmartImage sent from its cache a renamed file without any extension.
My solution was to skip CG for large image and leave the code like this:

Code: Select all

<a rel='simple_album' class="fancybox" href="{CGSmartImage src=$file notag=1 noembed=1}">
<img href="{$file}" />
</a>

However, I want to know what mistake I'm making and why the example of the documentation not works, in order to use CG with both images.

Thanks.

set the fancybox 'type' property to 'image'.
fancybox uses the file extension to try to determine a type.
