TemplateHelper runs at AfterEndBody, and at that point starts messing
seriously with the page. If this Lightbox Action runs after that
point, then it might run into a page that’s missing pieces it
considers essential to its health.
If you can, please open up this Action and see if you can spot where
in the page construction cycle it runs.
I can’t see where you’re adding the TemplateHelper to the page. Which
element is that applied to? This error is looking for the Prototype
libraries, which are not a part of TH, and not messed with by TH either.
I said messed up my site with this problem, and I started noticing this Files not Found around the time I implemented TH, since I don’t understand how they play together I don’t know where or what to look at.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Is there an action like Pic to Lightbox Image I can use?
All you will need to do is make sure that the Prototype and
Scriptaculous libraries are loaded. One easy way to do this would be
to download Protaculous from ActionsForge. Add that to the page, and
the only setting you’ll need to make is to pull the Library picker
down to scriptaculous-packed. That should get the lightbox working for
you.

You have Prototype and Scriptaculous, but I don’t see the Lightroom
library there. Is the Action still giving you the same error while
publishing after you applied Protaculous to the page?
Duplication of Proto/Scripty libraries: The action now relies on SP’ own Scriptaculous suite or Walter’s Protaculous to add the necessary libraries. I am not going to be a third to add these to the page. If you are being bitten by duplicated libraries, you are already adding the necessary code. Others will have to use another Action to add them.
Changes/Additions:
Already mentioned reliance on 3rd party Action to add JS code.
BG Opacity option in the Page Modifiers action
Added ability to perform ‘sticky’ changes when triggering the Lightbox, so the BG color can be altered for each lightbox popup within the same page (JW).
Added a couple alerts for missing images and libraries to better inform the user
Updated to latest lightbox.js code from huddletogether.com
Switched from a folder to a real fwaction bundle. Please manually install the Action and discard any previous version (readme.txt included)
I use this version of Lightbox from Weaver and it does work. As long as you have separately applied the Scriptaculous action to the page the Lightbox action should just work. Since the Lightbox javascript is not showing up in the page it means one of two things. 1) Lightbox is no longer applied, 2) Lightbox action is not actually active.
I did have a problem similar to yours. What it took to remedy it was to reactivate a new copy of it. Try this: Quit Freeway and then restart it without opening any documents. Go to the Edit menu and select Actions. In the list you should find Lightbox in the User list of actions. If it is unchecked then recheck the boxes to activate it. If it is already active then uncheck the boxes. Now quit Freeway, then restart Freeway and return to Edit menu and select Actions. If you unchecked the Lightbox boxes before then recheck them and restart Freeway once more.
Basically you are resetting Freeway to see the action. This is technically a beta action so it is not a guaranteed to work, but once I did above it started working again.
and the action is there and also a folder called "Lifthbox’ (I did spell right) with the exact files that the program says I am missing inside, thinking maybe something changed the name of the folder I changed to “Lightbox” and deleted the newer lightbox.fwaction, but still does not show in list and the problem persists.
I also tried to re-install the newer action lightbox.fwaction and it looked like it install but it does not show in the list
The General folder is created by Freeway when you allow it to install the action for you, but don’t do that.
With the 0.96 version of the action, the name should be lightbox.fwactionb. If that is not what you have, then re-download it. Put all other versions in the trash. Once you download it, delete the “b” at the end of the action name which causes the finder to use a folder icon which is normal and ok.
Manually place the lightbox.fwaction folder in the user/library/application support/freeway 5/actions folder. Then start Freeway without opening a document and check the Edit/action again. It should show up in the list as active. Once you confirm that you can open your document again.
After opening your document, go to Edit/Actions and check to see if there is more than one instance of Lightbox in the list. More than likely you have an extra one at the top of the list. If so, deactivate it.
