Answering in order:

I am not sure the files are being included - everyone talks about the [root] of the site, as i am unable to get access to the server root the js files live in a folder called [ js ] which is in the httpdocs folder on the server along with the .css and lightbox.html file. The link from the .html file is constructed thus -<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>Is this correct?

I am not getting any javascript errors [i wish] at least then i would know it was talking to the js files!

How do I do the call to the "initLightBox()" funtion in the onload tag of the body? Do I have to add or change anything in the .js files?

Thanks for the help guys
