Issues

• Unfortunetly, mootools.js (used for Flashbox) and Lightbox don't like each other, so there are problems using both of them simultaneously. But there is a solution: Slimbox (by Christophe Beils)! It's a clone of Lightbox, but small, efficient, more convenient and 100% compatible - and it uses mootools! (Slimbox also uses rel="lightbox". You don't need to change existing posts. NGGallery and other Plugins will still work. If a plugin supports Lightbox, it supports Slimbox, too.) Slimbox is included within the plugin archive and can be activated in the admin panel (Settings/pb-embedFlash).

• Flashbox does not work for Internet Explorer versions lesser than 7.0! All other browsers should work, like Opera, Firefox, Safari and IE7.
