Question

I have a modal window from which I am calling a lighbox to view images. I have got the lightbox to work on it’s own, but cannot get it working from the modal window.

If i include jQuery before the lightbox includes – the page breaks and all styling of the portlet fails.

Any help greatly appreciated, Rich.

Looks like you are including both jQuery and Prototype. Since they both redefine the $ you need to do special handling and have the following line after jQuery is loaded

  jQuery.noConflict();
