 * hi there!
 * Thanks for great plugin and great tutorials….
 * I am trying to create a link to another page that opens in a lightbox. I can 
   get the link to open a lightbox but then the linked page just opens in my browser
   and doesn’t stay contained in the lightbox. I thought it might be a size issue,
   but if so how can this be fixed?
 * Ideally i want the lightbox to contain a few images, with each individual image
   opening a link in a lightbox. the effect im trying to create is one main webpage
   that the user navigates to then the relevant extra info to just be overlayed 
   in lightbox….
 * hope that makes sense
 * thanks!

   might of guessed 🙂 )

 * Hi, it seems [http://ft01.dcwh.nt/test](http://ft01.dcwh.nt/test) is not accessible…
   I tried .net too but same result.

 * Hey thanks for reply:
 * My fat fingers strike again! The page is actually
 * [http://ft101.dcwh.net/test](http://ft101.dcwh.net/test)
 * The image in the lightbox is linked to a test page with the iframe class….

 * Trying to test that page with Dragonfly in the Opera browser, I get a blocking
   error:
 *     ```
       Uncaught exception: TypeError: 'window.requestAnimationFrame' is not a function
       ```
   
 * but this is not related, it just makes debugging more difficult for me.
 * It looks like the target page has a so called frame-breaker script running somewhere
   that prevents the page from being embedded in an inline frame. No idea where 
   that snippet lives but you can learn more by disabling all other plugins one 
   by one (test each time) and if that does not work, switching to the default theme.
 * By the way, please be aware that you are running a few too many lightbox scripts
   at the same time. Here are a few I noticed besides FancyBox:
    /wp-content/plugins/
   nextgen-gallery/products/photocrati_nextgen/modules/lightbox/static/lightbox_context.
   js?ver=4.0 /wp-content/plugins/out-of-the-box/includes/colorbox/jquery.colorbox-
   min.js?ver=1412746628 /wp-content/plugins/photo-gallery/js/jquery.fullscreen-
   0.4.1.js /wp-content/plugins/photo-gallery/js/bwg_gallery_box.js?ver=1.2.3 /wp-
   content/plugins/slideshow-gallery/js/colorbox.js?ver=1.3.19 /wp-content/themes/
   basic/themify/js/lightbox.js?ver=1.9.9
 * You really need to limit the number of lightbox scripts to one to prevent conflicts.

 * thanks! the error may be to do with page transitions i have set on the page….
 * i’ll do a bit of troubleshooting and disable plugins etc, see if that sorts the
   problem
 * seems every plugin i use has a lightbox feature built in – now to turn them off!
 * hopefully that will sort it!

 * well, i think it was page transitions that were making the page break out of 
   the iframe.
 * thanks for your great help and support…
 * great plugin!

 * > well, i think it was page transitions
 * Was that part of the theme or a plugin?

 * It was a seperate plugin, but I’m pretty sure that’s what was causing the problems…
