Hi, I have encountered a problem using prototype AJAX when trying to include a lightbox on a link. I have tested the lightbox works on the same page outside the script tags, so I know paths etc are correct. When I click this link a box should appear asking if I want to proceed or cancel. However, instead it sends me to the actual p...

I realize that you get a speed boost from this, and its more convenient to the user, but beyond that, is the time spent on it worth it?
