Slimbox 1.3 and Lightbox 2.8.2 not working with Atahualpa 3.4.1
 

Slimbox works fine with Atahualpa 3.2, but doesn't with 3.4.1. I've tried Slimbox with Wordpress Classic 1.5 and that works OK. I have the same problem with Lightbox 2.8.2.

When I click on a thumbnail the image opens in a new browser window, rather than the Slimbox effect.

Here's an example using Slimbox and Atahualpa 3.4.1:

Try removing the IE6 PNG fix section from js.php

From

/* IE5.5+ PNG Alpha Fix v2.0 Alpha: Background Tiling Support

... up to...
/* JQUERY */

If that doesn't help remove this from header.php as well

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $bfa_ata['siteurl']; ?>/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.2.6"></script>

Thanks for your reply.

I tried both those suggestions but still have the same problem.

Try setting JS to external at Configure CSS & JS. This looks like a Javascript problem between jQuery and Mootools (slimbox)

When you tried with the classic theme, did you have both
Clean Archives Reloaded and slimbox activated at the same time?

If so, could you try to leave the JS internal and delete this line from js.php:

jQuery.noConflict();

Setting JS to external fixed it. Thanks for your help.

That fix worked for IE8, IE7 and Firefox thanks. I've tried it on IE6 - Slimbox and Lightbox both work but produce an error:

Line: 181
Error: Invalid procedure call or argument
Code: 0
URL: http://escapetocontinue.co.uk/blog1/

If I refresh the page the error does not repeat. If I restart the browser the error repeats.

I tried your previous suggestions and they didn't affect the error.

An example is at http://escapetocontinue.co.uk/blog1/

Any ideas please?

I've tracked it down to the code in js.php. If I comment out the block of code after "Apply PNG fix for IE6" then the error stops. I don't know what this is for - can I fix it or safely remove it please?

You can remove the long IE PNG fix section in js.php if you don't have transparent PNG's (or don't care for transparency in IE6).

Removing the IE PNG section didn't fix the problem.
This one will fix the problem:
comment out the following js in header.php:
mootools-for-dropdown.js
and
jquery.cross-slide.js

then the slimbox plugin willl work alright - i guess lkightbix as well.

cheers
