# Lightbox not loading content

 * Using 4.9.6, when using the following, everything works fine
    `[su_lightbox src
   ="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-31042477"]The BBC[/su_lightbox]` However
   if I add any HTML in them, which is needed, it doesn’t load the lightbox, for
   example: `[su_lightbox src="http://twitter.com/home/?status=Is your office living
   in the dark ages? via @REALinsure"]<img src="http://realinsurance.net/wp-content/
   uploads/twitter-309418_640.png" alt="Twitter" width="60" height="60">[/su_lightbox]`
   or `[su_lightbox src="http://www.skype.com/en/"]<em>Skype</em>[/su_lightbox]`
 * As you may be able to tell, these are needed, I assume with the second I can 
   put the _ tags outside the lightbox? But for the image, I can’t think of a way
   around it._

 * Unfortunately no, I haven’t. The text one was fixed by putting the _ tags suddenly
   started working, so that’s no issue, but the image never did the same._
