I've managed to stump myself with this one.

With Simple Gallery in Lightbox display mode, add a link to the description field of an image. Do this by typing something like this:

 This is the description and <a href="http://google.com" mce_href="http://google.com">here</a> is a link to Google.

Then try it out. View the image, the link will be there. It looks and behaves like a link, but it can't be clicked.

I can't for the life of me see what is messing with the link, but I have removed all CSS and all HTML using Firebug to find what makes it work again. It is the div id="lightbox-container-image-data-box" that does it, but it isn't caused by any of the CSS applied to that div. It must be something else.

I'm wondering if there's something in the js perhaps?

Any solutions are much appreciated.

I've found the offending section in the js file:

// Assigning click events in elements to close overlay $('#jquery-overlay,#jquery-lightbox,#lightbox-container-image-data-box,#lightbox-container-image-details-currentNumber').click(function(e) { if(this.id == 'lightbox-container-image-details-currentNumber') { e.stopPropagation();_finish(); return true; } if(this.id == 'lightbox-container-image-data-box') { return false; } _finish(); });

That's the unpacked version.

This bit of code makes the lower lightbox panel not-clickable so that the overlay isn't closed by clicking on it. This obviously also makes any links inside that sections unclickable.. hence my problem.

Can the js be altered to allow clickable links in the description, without making the unlinked parts of the description close the overlay when clicked?

The description is held inside id="lightbox-container-image-details-description".

Any ideas are appreciated
