I was able to fix the compatibility problem with NoScript (as mentioned by Nightwolf) by removing the timer that hides the lightbox.

old code:
halt : function() { greasedLightbox.slideShow('stop'); setTimeout(greasedLightbox.hide, 700); },

new code becomes:
halt : function() { greasedLightbox.slideShow('stop'); greasedLightbox.hide(); },

For some strange reason, Lightbox doesn’t work on deviantArt’s gallery pages.

// wikipedia (needs to come before 'show') { name : 'wikipedia', includeRegExp : /^http(s)?:\/\/(.*?\.)?wikipedia.org/i, linkRegExp : /(.*?)\/(Ima(t?)ge(m|n?)|Immagine|Bild(e?)|Grafika|Afbeelding|Figura|Kuva|Magod|Billede):(.*)\.(jp(e?)g|gif|png|svg)$/i, findImageRegExp : /(.*?)\/thumb\/(.*?)\.(jp(e?)g|gif|png)$/i, replaceString : '$1/$2.$3', showFunction : function(event) { greasedLightbox.showFrom(event, 'wikipedia'); return false; } }, // end wikipedia

This works with non english wikipedia pages since in some localized wikis the word Image is translated.
eg:
EN – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:xxxxxxxx.xxx
IT – http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immagine:xxxxxxxx.xxx
DE – http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bild:xxxxxxxx.xxx

Greased Lightbox’s download page reports that it works with GreaseKit. I haven’t been able to get it to work with Safari at all. If you have any pointers I’d appreciate it.

I too am having issues using this with Facebook, it works great in Firefox with Facebook, but I just switched to Opera and I’m trying to get it work with the FB and nothing seems to work, it works fine pretty much everywhere else, but no FB

First of all, thank you for this great Greasemonkey script. It’s realy awsome!
I’ve made a Swedish translation for the next version of Greased Lightbox:

// swedish
sv : [
{
loading : 'Laddar bild',
loadingSub : 'Klicka för att avbryta',
context : 'Visa originalbild',
error : 'Bild inte tillgänglig',
next : 'Nästa bild (höger piltangent)',
previous : 'Föregående bild (vänster piltangent)',
magnify : 'Förstora bild (+-tangent)',
shrink : 'Förminska bild (--tangent)',
update : 'Ny uppdatering tillgänglig',
slideshow : 'Starta/stoppa bildspel'
}
], // end swedish

Thanks – that helps a ton. I love this script, but there are times when I really need to NOT have it work normally.

@Marty: On a PC, you can hold down Ctrl+Shift and click to bypass Greased Lightbox. I think you can also do that on a Mac, but I don’t know what the key combination would be off the top of my head (it should be something+shift, so just play around if you are on a Mac). I hope that helps!
