All the functions (video, pics, messaging, and login) work perfectly in firefox, but in ie it either never loads or the shaded background layer is on top and blocks the desired content. i thought about re-installing the thickbox mod but i just did get the video mod to work.

i've got all of the mods that were needed for the video-like-digg mod.

any thoughts?

In firefox, everything works fine.

In internet explorer the image thickbox and login thickbox both work fine and now i've got the video thickbox to work, but when a user tries to message another the message box layer is behind the shade layer and makes it impossible to type.

any suggestions?

I am getting the same problem. Firefox has no problem on Private Messaging via overlaying the message thru lightbox. When switch to Internet Explorer (6 and 7) I am getting a shade layer for about 90% of the page and I can't type message and even close the "x" or close button. I can't do anything on the page but click on Back button on the top. I search and I am not so sure if this is something to do with the template CSS body width properties. My setup is currently set to 980px.

body { width: 980px; }

I tried to set it to 100% but nothing happened. Any idea?

Having the same issue where the lightbox in private messaging is not working in IE, it is grayed out and you can't do anything with it while viewing a message.

I tried playing with the CSS, but had no luck. It must be something else. Do you think it could be a conflict since I am running the optimized scriptaculous code and thickbox?

Any suggestions would be radical.

Since nobody else has come to the rescue I managed to make a rough workaround to keep the PM system functioning.

Just go to the /modules/lightbox/css/leightbox_screen.css

Delete the entire section for overlay.

This will at least prevent the overlay from appearing above your PM box and allow users to view the messages, etc. You will lose the grey background, but gain functionality.
