This is a great solution to problems with lightbox 2 not allowing the close button to be clicked with large images. Great work!

I would have never figured out that the overflow was the issue. Thanks to a quick search and this helpful tip I got it fixed in minutes rather than hours of trying to debug it.

In my case, the “imageContainer” div was flowing over the “outerImageContainer” div.

Fix: lightbox.css

#outerImageContainer {overflow:hidden}
