Lightbox not working

Sorry about the new thread, I was going to put this in the bug thread but didn't want to clutter that up.

I've installed the gallery integration with few problems (other than a new version being released whilst half way through my install).

The one problem I can't seem to solve with my meagre knowlede of all things coded is the lightbox not working, although I have an idea what might be causing it.

Ok, I can put a picture in a post and tell it to use the light box.
The picture shows in the post but when it is clicked on the page changes to just the picture.

I've got a feeling it's something to do with either me misinterpreting the discussion on the bugs post or the fact that I'm running phpbb3 inside MKPortal.

Just in case it's the former here's the head section of overall_header from my theme, proglass (based on prosilver).
**well, I was going to show you but the forum wouldn't let me add it using the code BB tags, so I'm gonna need some help on that one too!

Obviously there is a bit more than that, but none of it is relevant to the problem.

Many thanks in advance for any help.

Further to this I've now discovered that I'm getting a white page on trying to change any permissions within the forum. Not sure if it's related to installing the gallery intergration though Neutral

*quick edit* from my server error logs ... "Cannot get media type from 'cgi-script'".

This is the error being thrown up everytime i try to set permissions.

Okie dokie, here's an update for anyone that's reading this.

The permissions error has now disappeared ... becuase I uninstalled the intergration.

I'm going for a reinstal and if i get the error again I'll let you all know (cos i'm good like that!)

Incidently, back to the main reason for this post ... Is there an update on the correct way to add the lightbox mod to the overall_header yet (err, using prosilver) as the other thread about it is confusing.

Thanks

Harry, there are no bugs in the integration release that keep it from working the way it is, except maybe the find instruction, but it is close enough you should be able to find it anyway. The other things we are discussing in the bugs thread are other/better ways to do the same things.

If I were you I would install the integration as is, then try the other changes/enhancements. Get the core integration/style/language mods done, then test and make sure they are working. Then move on to the lightbox mods from the integration package and make sure that is working before going on to Denney's mods

A quick google search makes this seems to be a server configuration error. Is this your host or an online host? Frankly, I'm not familiar with this error. Confused

Thanks for the reply.
I've installed the intergration and got it working (with no permission errors, so not entirely sure what was going on there, I probably did something wrong).

I'll try the lightbox mod again in a day or two and see how I get on.

The host is an online one (heart internet).
