Hi Shelane,

1: Not sure, try it! You shouldn't (untested ;-D) need to have global
includes, if you have any trouble you can always check the thickbox code and
make the CSS as specific as it needs to be to not affect the rest of your
site.

2: I think (but haven't used noConflict) that yes, you would need to replace
$ in thickbox.js

3: I had a form working inside a thickbox window, although heavily modified
the thickbox code to achieve the effect that I wanted. I've since moved to
jqModal as it is more customisable which I needed.
The method I used for thickbox was to create a <form> in my document then
pass this as inline content to the thickbox window. Without the code handy I
couldn't show you how.

Hope that helps in some way...

I like the idea of thickbox, but I have a few concerns.

1. I would really prefer not to rewrite my css for all of *my* elements to
handle the global padding, margin, etc changes by the thickbox.css file.
How will thickbox behave if I comment out the global settings.

2. I still have to use prototype for one function that I have yet to get
working on jQuery.  So my jQuery calls start with this var $j =
jQuery.noConflict(); to make it play nice.  Do I need to change all the $
in
the thickbox.js file to make it play nice too?

3. My use for thickbox is to pull up an edit form for some session values.
How have other people handled form submissions with thickbox?  I'm going
to
have the form submit and on success call a different function on my base
page to reload (via jQuery) my results.


I appreciate your help for this jQuery newbie.
