Hi Garthan, I think Christophe plans to port Slimbox to JQuery -- there's some discussion about this here:
http://groups.google.com/group/slimbox The framework isn't at issue. The key is that the rel=”lightbox” or class="thickbox" attributes aren't sufficient -- you need to initiate the scripts using an onclick event from inside the infowindow html. I didn't see a ready way to do that with Thickbox, but Slimbox can be called via Slimbox.open(). It's an easy "out-of-the-box" solution for anyone needing something simple.
