Can't get lightbox background to full page height

    Hi,
    I've downloaded a swf-compaible lightbox from here:

    http://videobox-lb.sourceforge.net/

    And It's fine when tested on a test page, but it doesn't like my actual website. I'm confident it's a CSS conflict.

    My site here:
    http://www.wizmomagic.co.uk/coin-tricks-c-2.html?debug=1

    There's a test 'Display Test Popup' link at the top and bottom of the page. The lightbox works in firefox but not in IE. The background it 'trapped' at the top, and the lightbox is also stuck to the top. So when you click on the bottom test link, you can't see it.

    I will offer $10 to the first person who provides a full solution (Via Paypal).

    I'm not interested in installing a different lightbox system as I tried that and the other system was worse.
    Ideally I'm loking for a bit of replacement CSS code.

    It's nothing to do with the CSS it's do it with the lightbox script

    I had this exactly the same problem before and I just checked where that was and I never found a solution... so can't help in that regards

    yes, i agreee. its not css issue. its problem with script in ligthbox. the test page u have is going to be smaller in height thats why the lightbox looks fine in test, or else the same script is messing up in IE every other time.

    anyways, have u checked http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox/ ???

    Thanks for the suggestion but the one you recommended isn't inteded for videos.
    My lightbox appears to function properly, the javascript is firing etc, it's just that the background div isn't stretching down the page.
    It must be conflicting with something else on the page.
    The script author has a demo running on a page as big as mine without any issues.
