Description
I don't know if this is feasible, but could we have support for lightbox2 in addition to thickbox, also, is thickbox even supported for 5.x?
#1
+ 1 to this but for D6.
#2
Any particular reason to use Lightbox2 instead of thickbox? We're using thickbox on a D5 site with no problems.

Hi,
Seanr ,thanks for picking up the support and maintenance of splash.
Anyway, I'm not able to get the thickbox to work in 6.x.
Kind regards,
Jim

Lightbox2 is better than thickbox in my opinion. I switched off thickbox a while ago and It's much faster, better looking and a more elegant solution in general. I think people are moving off thickbox and into lightbox2. Take ubercart for example.
I'd like this to be supported as well. I'd also like to remove thickbox from inside this module and instead require thickbox / lightbox module dependencies instead. Selectable "popup" support would be the best.
I was able to get Thickbox working in 6.x, but I did quite a bit custom programming and fixes in my version, so I'm not sure if I fixed this or if it just worked.
This module does need a little bit of clean up work to get it to where it's a viable option for casual users. Thanks for taking over support and I appreciate any future work.

jwilde, can you try it with one of the core themes? It works fine with garland for me, so it may be a theme related issue.
#6
Ok. I tried the thickbox option with garland and nothing happens. I also tried zen and got the same results.
I'll look in to the module more when I get some time. Thanks for your speedy reply.
Kind regards,
Jim

jwilde, can you list your exact settings for all the tabs so I can try to reproduce the problem? Also, do you have any other modules enabled that do anything JavaScript or jQuery related? Also, make sure you've got the latest versions of everything.

I discovered there was a conflict between this module and the thickbox module because this one packaged it's own (and thus dusplicate) copy of the thickbox javascript code. I'm looking into integrating with Lightbox as well, but having a very difficult time due to the way Lightbox2 was designed. I have an issue in their queue seeking assistance: #565554: Invoke Lightbox2 on page load?.
