Description
Hey guys
I have made a gallery using the 'Fast Gallery' module (it contains a mixture of Jpegs and SWF's). The images load as usual (using Lightbox2) but the SWF's open in a new browser window. Is there anyway to get the SWF's to load into Lightbox too?

have you followed these guidelines?
Quickstart on Videointegration
1. Download JW FLV Player. In the zip file, there is a file player.swf that you should upload to your webserver.
2. Make sure you have Lightbox 6.x-1.x-dev installed (or use the patch I posted above on Lightbox 1.8).
3. Go to Admin->Lightbox2. Under General tab in Video settings, click Enable Video and type in the path to the player.swf file you uploaded in the first step.
4. That's it! Upload your FLV, SWF, MOV, etc files to the gallery folder. Click Rescan and you're done.
5. If you want to specify the width and height, upload a JPG screenshot that's sized to the size you want. Name it the same as the video file but with extension ".screenshot.jpg". It will also be used as the thumbnail. The EXIF description of this JPG is used as the caption.

Hey
Yep - sure have :( - everything's in the correct place but SWF's still launch in a browser...
Have also double checked that the .screenshot.jpg is the correct same size as the SWF/ Height-width etc...
