Hi Ladies / Gents,
I have a front end ComplexTableField as per the example on http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=complextablefield, but the show and edit buttons simply fill out the current browser tab or open a new one rather than use a LightBox.

I've noticed a few people asking questions about getting LightBox working, but have seen no answers relevant to ComplexTableField.

Any ideas how I can pop up a lightBox in the front end?

Ta,
Z.

Ah, tricky one eh?

Can anyone point me in the right direction? (Using SS 2.2.2)

Thanks.

Turns out that there was a dependancy problem.

In SS 2.2.2:
sapphire/forms/ComplexTableField.php has the line:

                Requirements::javascript("sapphire/javascript/ComplexTableField.js");

This depends on the prototype extension, but it has not been made a requirement for ComplexTableField (it has for TableListField)

So, I just added the following 3 lines before the Requirements line above:

                Requirements::javascript('jsparty/prototype.js');
                Requirements::javascript('jsparty/behaviour.js');
                Requirements::javascript('jsparty/prototype_improvements.js');

Now it works

P.S.
How do I enter this as a bug in the ticket system? I've registered, but apparently I don't have the privileges.
