Hello there,
I'm having an issue with something and was hoping someone might know the solution:
Basically, i've installed zen lightbox within my site and everything has worked wonderfully.
Recently i added a feature to my product image page allowing the product information to be displayed in a four tabbed AJAX menu box. Since the addition of this, lightbox no longer works and the large images just load in a popup window like default.
I have narrowed the problem down to three lines of code that work in conjuction to cause the proplem with light box, but are necessary for the AJAX menu to function.
The file i have modified is includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php
And the three lines of code causing the problem are:
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/prototype.lite.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/moo.fx.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/moo.fx.pack.js"></script>
Does anyone notice anything about these lines that would cause lightbox to stop functioning and if so any suggestions on how to remedy the problem...?
I apologize for the poor explanation and will try my best to clarify if asked... :)
Any help is welcomed!! Thank You!!
it would seem that the tab add on has overridden the mootools js for lightbox, which is what some will do.Quote:

or you might have to install jquery lightbox instead

Yes, i have tried removing the js scripts for the tab add on and it causes it not to function.
I will try jquery lightbox. Does it not use mootools...?
Thanks again!

and if possible and there are any files that need to be overwritten try winmerge to merge the two files.
Thanks will do!Quote:

In short... no! jquery and mootools are two different libraries. and don't play will with each other.Quote:

ZenLightbox is using both modified and default mootool core files version 1.2.1..Quote:

I want to convert my tree menu over to mootools, it be nice to have both running on version1.2.4... Already tried a quick switch out of the core and it didn't work out.

Not sure if this is of any use to you, Slimbox... http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=830 - I prefer it over the full Lightbox add-on as it is a stand alone mod, easy to install, easy to uninstall - I only had problem after problem with the full Lightbox mod and gave up on it after a short whileQuote:
