I can't believe how hard it is to get this to auto start, extremely frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

// Automagically load Lightbox on Page Load – by Bramus! (http://www.bram.us/)
// Code modded from http://www.huddletogether.com/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=1269&page=1#Item_0
function autoFireLightbox() {
//Check if location.hash matches a lightbox-anchor. If so, trigger popup of image.
setTimeout(function() {
if(document.location.hash && $(document.location.hash.substr(1)).rel.indexOf(‘lightbox’)!=-1) {
myLightbox.start($(document.location.hash.substr(1)));
}},
250
);
}
Event.observe(window, ‘load’, autoFireLightbox, false);

I know that it says that you have to call the lightbox.html, but I do not have that html file when I download lightbox and the only thing that it does is shows a thumbnail up in the top right hand corner of the page. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Phil

I’m having some issues with setting up your autoFire Lightbox, even with the corrections cited on the page in Note 3. Basically, my id’s don’t trigger the autoFire effect. I’ve triple-checked all the code and have made sure to apply the changes specified above, as I was using version 2.05. I wonder if it may have something to do with the way my WordPress settings handle permalinks? I will also try using your older Lightbox file as one last shot, and then attempt this with an html page, as opposed to the PHP files used by Wordpress, before I throw my hands up in the air, completely. Thank you in advance for any clarification you can provide. Hello. I’m having some issues with setting up your autoFire Lightbox, even with the corrections cited on the page in Note 3.

In your posting you say you have to change the 'html head', but what is that? The closest I could find are the files index.php but that doesn't seem similar to the file you have. Thanks already & regards, Jeroen. Hi Bram,
