It appears that ModalBox (at least the latest version, 1.6.1) renders DHTML menu unusable on any pages referencing "prototype.js", a file which comes with the ModalBox package and is necessary in order for it to function.

I haven't ever used this software so I don't know how to help you solve this problem.What I can tell you is that I use Web Modal Windows Builder (Likno) for my pop up windows and it worked fine for me,and the menu works fine,without being conflicted.

Dani,

I was just about to look for an alternative -- good timing!

I'll take a look at this, although I'm leaning more towards lightbox2; hopefully I won't have any conflicts with this or other modules.

Title: ModalBox and Lightbox2 are conflicting with DHTML Menu » ModalBox is conflicting with DHTML Menu

SCRATCH that.

It appears that lightbox2 has the same exact issues with dhtml menu -- they both use "prototype.js"

I've updated the title to reflect this.

Just a note... TenaMurphy posted a workaround to this:
http://drupal.org/node/261570

These instructions didn't work for me, so I went with a ThickBox implementation, which had no conflicts.

EDIT: ColorBox also works :)
