The ESC key don't work in IE7 to close the lightbox.

The jquery plugin on http://warren.mesozen.com/jquery-lightbox/ does work fine in IE7.

In the latest dev version of the module (5.x-2.x-dev), you can configure which keys should close the lightbox, along with navigation keyboard shortcuts too. The setting can be found under the Advanced Settings collapsed fieldset on admin/settings/lightbox2.

Please ensure you are using the 2.x dev version, rather than the 1.x one as you selected in the form above. The 1.x version is no longer supported.

Cheers,
Stella

I managed to reproduce the issue. You can try out the latest dev release (available later today). It's actually caused by an IE bug, but I've implemented a workaround.

Cheers,

My year long project is about to go live so didn't want to chance upgrading to lightbox 2.x module. COuld you tell me what fix you made in the js so that I could apply it to the 1.x branch code i'm using?

The 5.x-1.x version is no longer supported. It is so out of date I wouldn't even know where to begin! Esc should work though, that code only changed recently which is why it had stopped working in 5.x-2.x-dev.

The 5.x-1.x versions still use prototype and scriptaculous libraries. You may find other problems as a result, as Drupal 5 now uses jQuery. All the 5.x-2.x versions use jQuery so it doesn't have these potential conflicts. I would really recommend upgrading.

Stella
