Are you tired of fighting with your web 2.0 template and CBGallery? I know I sure was. Here for your enjoyment is some code that will enable your cbgallery to be mootools / Slightbox enabled.

How to install...

1. Download the smoothgallery mambot here. extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,viewlink/link_id,1727/Itemid,35/ If
you already have it installed, proceed to step 2.

2. Modify lines 24-31 of cb.profolegallery.php to look like this

[code:1]if ($this->addCSS && strpos( $mainframe->getHead(), '/templates/' . $cur_template . '/css/smoothgallery.css' ) === false ) {
$head = '<link href="'.$mosConfig_live_site .'/mambots/content/smoothgallery/css/jd.gallery.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />' . "\n"
.'<link href="'.$mosConfig_live_site.'/mambots/content/smoothgallery/css/slightbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />' . "\n";
}

if ($this->addCustomCSS) {
$head .= '<link href="'.$mosConfig_live_site . '/templates/' . $cur_template . '/css/smoothgallery.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />' . "\n";
}

// add javascript to head if it's not already added settings specify to add it
if ($this->addJS && strpos( $mainframe->getHead(), '/mambots/content/smoothgallery/scripts/jd.gallery.js"></script>' ) === false)
$head .= '<script type="text/javascript" src="'.$mosConfig_live_site .'/mambots/content/smoothgallery/scripts/mootools.js"></script>' . "\n"
.'<script type="text/javascript" src="'.$mosConfig_live_site .'/mambots/content/smoothgallery/scripts/jd.gallery.js"></script>' . "\n"
.'<script type="text/javascript" src="'.$mosConfig_live_site .'/mambots/content/smoothgallery/scripts/slightbox.js"></script>' . "\n";[/code:1]

Copy the smoothgallery.css file from the smoothgallery mambot folder to your templates css folder.

BANG! No moar fighting with Jquery, it isn't even loaded and your slightbox gallery works perfectly with your web 2.0 / mootools enabled template. woohoo!!

any other link for that gallery because the website is down :|

sorry but your post is quite inacurate i just tried it with the CB version i have joomla 1.5,

and i had tons of error and your mambot dosnt even have the smoothgallery.css in it..

So if you'll like to rewrite it with better explanation complete source code files and GOOD working direct link it woul be more than welcome thank you...

I'm sorry to say this Claudeesti, but currently Nant's Gallery Plugin is not compatible with Joomla 1.5.x in either native or legacy mode. He will release one that'll work in 1.5 after Community Builder releases 1.2

As for this code however, I'm going to have to try it on my site as I am running both this gallery along with many components using MooTools.
