Bump, it's really urgently needed for an assignment

Body Tag
By looking at your code I can see that you have preloaded images in your body tag for rollovers if you take these out so the opening body tag is just
then your light box should workHTML Code:<body>

But i still want to pre-load images for the menu rollovers. Is that possible?

All your lightbox scripts are 404's not found.
There could also be other problems, but without the scripts, nothing (as far as lightbox goes) will happen.

What do you mean by that?Originally Posted by jscheuer1

I mean that when I tried to navigate to (for example):
as indicated by (in your source code for the page you linked to in your post):Code:http://www.themothershipmusic.com/js/lightbox.js
I got:HTML Code:<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lightbox.js"></script>
This means that the lightbox.js script is not on the server in location pointed to by the source code of your page. The same was true of (again from your source code):Not Found
The requested URL /js/lightbox.js was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/2.2.11 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.11 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at www.themothershipmusic.com Port 80
The second of which (scriptaculous.js?load=HTML Code:<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects,builder"></script>effects,builder) requires effects.js and builder.js to be in the same path as scriptaculous.js. All of these files are available in the lightbox archive you should have downloaded when you first got lightbox.
If you don't have them, go back to the download page:
http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/
and get them (get the full archive).
If you already have them, upload them to the server to the locations indicated in your source code, or (if you have uploaded them to the server already) change the path in your source code to point to their actual locations.
Now, as I say - there could also be other problems, but without the resource files, the script has no chance of working. The other advice (given by other members in this thread) probably is not relevant though. In the case of Nilsy, if you use the version of lightbox from the link I gave, it will play nice with other onload stuff. In the case of traq, yes you can do that, but it shouldn't be required - though it may be preferable.

Thanks, it was pointed in the wrong directory. And i didn't realize until i studied it for about 40 minutes. The Lightbox set-up should mention that if you do install it in a sub-directory, you will have to change the call for the java script as well.
