I have:
Drupal 6.16
Gallery Assist 6.x-1.9
Gallery Assist Lightboxes 6.x-1.3
JQuery Update module that includes JQuery 1.2.6

In Gallery Assist Lightboxes I have following lightboxes downloaded:
colorbox
fancybox
lightbox
shadowbox
slimbox

The Bug:
If I select any of the following lightboxes:
colorbox
fancybox
shadowbox
slimbox

They DO NOT WORK! = I click thumbanail and image is opened like I have no lightbox installed.

If I select
lightbox

It WORKS! but INCORECTLY! I can see the background menu through the picture like in the attached file.

Any ideas how to fix that? I cannot upgrade to new Gallery Assit till I make Lightboxes working.

Ok, I found solution:

It seems following lightboxes:
colorbox
fancybox
shadowbox
slimbox

DO NOT WORK with jquery 1.2.6 - but gallery assit lightboxes documentation states that jquery 1.2.6 is ok!!!

I needed to manually download jquery v1.4.2 and put it into misc directory replacing the old jquery file.

question:
- Is it safe t replace something outside sites directory?
- Shall you include into documentation that 1.2.6 is not supported and that you need to replace jquery library manually?

Another solution is to install module:
jquery update 6.x-2.x-dev

The problem is that it is development version and has many problems still.

So, how do we solve that?

Hello almalino,

I sent to you a privat message with loggin data to the test site.

you can use jquery_update and you can overwrite only the minimized file with JQuery 1.3.2 or highter (1.4.2).
Currently JQueryUpdate can't load the other versions (variants).

To the time that GA-Lightboxes was developed Colorbox worked with JQ-1.3 and highter. If this is to understand in the documentation this is wrong. Please tell me which docu?

Stronge is that I have updated to GA 1.9 and GAL 1.3 at pruebas.puntolatinoclub.de and all lightboxes works.

Regards
Juan Carlos

PS
Many thanks for the reports, now I detected a bug in the fancybox by create link to the next image. I will report this to the fancybox maintainer.

I have changed to the version 1.3.2 in the test site pruebas.puntolatinoclub.de.
Please make tests from all supported lightboxes.

Remember this thread is categorized as a bug but the bug is not defined.

Juan Carlos

Hi Juan,

I now checked the documentation (README.txt) and you stated there versions of JQuerry required for lightboxes to work.
So, it is not a bug. You can close it. Sorry for disturbance.

I created a feature request to update README.txt on how to get crrect version of JQuery.

Is it possible to use the lightbox 2 module to hold the majority of the node content... how would one do this? Cause it may have to open up views etc...
