Hey Glen, did you try pulling the litebox code and demo page and running it with a more recent version of jquery.js? That Mac Firefox flicker looks familiar, and I think it was taken care of in an svn release within the last couple months. --Karl _ Karl Swedberg www.englishrules.com www.learningjquery.com On May 30, 2007, at 5:49 PM, Glen Lipka wrote: Ok, so we are back where we started.
