hello

if your template uses mootools library (like mine) and you have problems with the Lightbox
here's a simple workaround i tried and worked perfectly.
The problem it's that Lightbox cause conflicts with mootools so we'll change it with Slimbox.
I tested it on the latest version of Joomla 1.x but it should work on Joomla 1.5.x as well...

1) install Neoreferences component

2) download Slimbox from here: http://www.digitalia.be/software/slimbox#download
download Slimbox 1.53 for templates using mootools 1.11
OR
Slimbox 1.64 for templates using mootools 1.2
and unzip it

3) open in your joomla installation the component/com_neoreferences folder

4) overwrite the folders  css and js with thosewith the same name you found in the Slimbox folder

5) in the folder component/com_neoreferences/
open the files:
neoreferences.html.php
neoreferences.php
and find and replace in the code the occurrences of
lightbox.js and lightbox.css
with
slimbox.js and slimbox.css

6) do the same in the administrator/components/com_neoreferences/neoreferences.xml file

done! the unistaller will work as usual if you want unistall the component

the geeks of neojoomla could make easily a new version modifiying the installer... i tried but missed someting..

i hope that this solution could help you anyway!
