The HTML markup is produced by the software. The issue here was just with the filename itself. By renaming them, it fixed everything.

Having fun yet? :)

Trying to! :)

It doesn't bring up a lightbox thing tho, it just opens up a new page with a larger image. I checked to code with that on the Lightbox site, but it isn't opening up that graphic that lets your scroll thru the pics..

That is because in your markup, you are referencing files that are not in the correct location or uploaded yet:

http://tarajohnson.coffeecup.com/css/lightbox.css

Ok I think it might be close to working!... One thing tho, on my computer, I don't have the files "colorbox/ anything" or a folder called "colorbox". I know it's on the s-drive, but how do I add that file if it's not on my computer. Not sure how it even got on the s-drive. Which download does this come from?

That can only get in S-Drive if you added it to VSD. If you go to the Edit Menu > Remove files, are they listed there?

Ok I added those and the other images (like the arrows, etc.) How do I get these on there?

The Lightbox site says - Check the CSS and make sure the referenced prev.png and next.png files are in the right location. Also, make sure the loading.gif and close.png files as referenced near the top of the lightbox.js file are in the right location.

Does this mean location of the files?

What you need to look at is the CSS and locate all references to any images. You then just append the image path to your URL and make sure they are on the server. Basically same process as you have done so far.
