I know it is not a problem of how you coded the hack. I love it and I appreciate the time you put on this, but I can only imagine that the javascript that comes with lightbox is causing problems with some vb javascript.
There are obviously problems with the way lightbox integrates with vb, since lightbox wasn't written for vb originally. So when I said "I guess it is not easy to fix" I didn't mean that as in fixing your hack. I was just saying that it is probabily not easy to modify the lightbox code so that it doesn't break certain vb features.

I know that a modification I did, which used javascript interaction with Quick-Reply, didn't work in Internet Explorer. I tried four methods of doing the same thing, same result every time. Code validated, no errors or issues. It just didnt work. IE seemed to have problems with the textarea being the target of two javascript functions from different places. It is, to be fair, a very bugged browser and it worked perfectly in every other browser for every method I tried so I could only conclude that it was some kind of issue with IE and I ended up restricting the modification with a conditional that barred it from loading in IE.

Might have been some kind of browser-specific shennanigans in the forum code itself I suppose.
