lightbox2 newbie help
Hi
I looked through the forum, and did not find a fix, I am trying this script out on this test page:
http://nwchristiancowboys.com/lite.html
I cannot get the lightbox effect with my image, it just opens in a new page. I only have 1 image set up until I get a handle on this.
I am missing something, hopefully simple. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for patience with a newbie!

There's a syntax error in your BODY tag:
It should read:Code:<body onload="MM_preloadImages(‘/images/menu_on.gif’)…;initLightbox()">
Code:<body onload="MM_preloadImages('/images/menu_on.gif');initLightbox()">

Hi
Thank you for taking the time to reply! I changed the syntax error in the BODY tag, but this did not resolve the issue of image opening in a new page.
Any other suggestions???
Thank you again

There's still a (different) javascript error on your page, namely:
I'd remove the MM_preloadimages() code from the BODY altogether for now just to see if that does it.Code:Error: MM_preloadImages is not defined Source File: http://nwchristiancowboys.com/lite.html Line: 1

Hi
I removed the MM_preloadimages() code from the BODY, still not resolved.
Thank you for offering this suggestion.
Any other thoughts?

Hi Susan
Couple of problems I can see ...
1: The link to your CSS file appear to be incorrect
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
2: The link to your Javascript files also appears to be incorrect
<script src="js/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/lightbox.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
You will need to correct these before it will work
I attempted to load both (CSS & JS) and both came up with URL Errors.
HTH, John
