ThickBox is a cool visualization tool based on Jquery JavaScript library. ThickBox helps you display photos in a cool way and is useful in many web projects.

The problem
ThickBox does not work when the HTML pages has other JavaScript libraries such as Mootools.
Debuging the error reveals this:
$(domChunk) is null
The solution
- Add this JavaScript in your page, just after you load the jQuery JavaScript-jQuery.noConflict();
- Replace every instances of ‘$’ with ‘jQuery’ in thickbox.js
This will make jQuery and ThinkBox play nice with other JavaScript libraries.
Thank You very much!! This is exactly what I needed

Hi.
Have an asp:UpdatePanel
And when that is fired Thicbox don’t work anymore.
Tried the soluton mentioned abow, but no luck
this is exactly what i needed i have thickbox integrated in a project and i try to add an other lightbox plugin for the same page like a photo gallery but the two plugins was making a conflict i think because the two plugins have similar funcion names but if i add this chunk of code all works just as i expected.
