Hello all,

I have used slimbox on other domains using the same code, but this
time when I click the image that is supposed to open SlimBox it opens
the image plainly in a new window (without the SB-effect). Anyone
familiar with this problem? It happens on both IE as on FF. In FF is
looks like it tries to use the SB-effect for a fraction of a second
before it renders the picture without the effect.
Thx.

This happens when a javascript error occurs.

Javascript errors mainly occur when there is a conflict with another
script, when you don't use the right mootools version, or when there
is a syntax error in the autoload code block (assuming you changed
it).

It seems that different templates respond differently to the script.
Could it be a <div> problem?
how do I check the autoload code block or the mootools version to be
compatible?

It only depends on the javascript file you are using in a page. If you
are using Prototype + Moo.Fx in combination with MooTools for example,
it will probably not work.

I had this issue, from a ASP.NET AJAX conflict, somewhere.

Solved by using Milkbox instead: http://reghellin.com/milkbox/

If you show me a web page that is not working, I could tell you what's
wrong.

I have/had a similar problem as first stated... took me a looong time
to somewhat figure it out.

I was using jquery-1.2.3.pack.js, but when I switched to match the
jquery call in the example file (http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/
jquery/1.2.6/jquery.min.js) everything worked fine... so after
downloading the newest jquery (1.2.6) library and using that all is
good. not sure what the difference is, but worked for me.
