Ok so I have dreamweaver cs5 and I am using the lightbox widget for some photos on my web site and the pics show up wrong in ie9. They show up in a browser window instead of likeit shows in the demo view. Here is the page it sits http://www.nimbusplanetproductions.com/photos/8-11/
It took me over two hours to get this widget to work as well as it is but it's not working right, is there something I missed like a code of the browser? I haven't tested it in fire fox or other browsers. Can anyone help me here?

Thanks
Dan

I got a 404 error with that link. Perhaps JavaScript is turned off or IE9 may just hate that particular LightBox? I have a LightBox that works in all my browsers, but my FireFox hates a LightBox another user here has. Browsers can be downright moody with coding.

How do I check to see? I have the platform installed on my pc and the right files uploaded to my site so I thought it should work.I have my site hosted with godaddy so they should have it turned on but I'm not exactly sure.I have no idea what file might cause the problem so it's frustrating.Would posting the code help?

I meant the browser may have it turned off. But mine's on and it doesn't work for me, so I doubt that's the case now.

Were there any additional instructions that came with the widget? Like to put rel="lightbox" inside each image link? That's the only other thing I can think of.

Well I saw a video on using the widget on youtube and I downloaded it in widget browser and customized it and saved the files. I added the widget to my page by insert/Widget in Dreamweaver cs5. I created thumb nails of all the pics and placed them in the images/thumbs directory and uploaded the files that I saved. I then changed the links to the images and made sure the file links were right. The default and the more detailed paths are not making a diffrence. As for the image link I did what the guy said and modded the link to this
Code: 
<li> <a href="http://www.nimbusplanetproductions.com/photos/shows/8-11/pic10.JPG" title=""><img src="http://www.nimbusplanetproductions.com/photos/shows/8-11/images/thumbs/pic10.jpg" width="72" height="72" alt="" /></a> </li>
not much of a change from the default to what I got now. I'll try to see if that helps and for it not working in ie cause of java being off isn't it cause I checked both browsers and it's turned on.
