Thickbox/jquery kills my spry dataset

The idea is commneting the whole function call to avoid thickbox to init byu
itself (it must be hte region observer the one in charge of doing that):

So, starting at line 12 in thickbox.js, you will find this:
//on page load call tb_init
$(document).ready(function(){
tb_init('a.thickbox, area.thickbox, input.thickbox');//pass where to apply
thickbox
imgLoader = new Image();// preload image
imgLoader.src = tb_pathToImage;
});

Now, you can simply comment it:
/*
$(document).ready(function(){
tb_init('a.thickbox, area.thickbox, input.thickbox');//pass where to apply
thickbox
imgLoader = new Image();// preload image
imgLoader.src = tb_pathToImage;
});
*/

And after that, just copy the 3 lines of code inside the curly braces and
use them in the observer function (see point #4 in my previous post)

Thanks for the response Andres, but I've trying to work with it for the past week and I can't follow what you're saying. I don't follow what you're saying in 1 - is that the code I'm using to replace lines 14 to 16, or adding to those lines?

The main reason can be that Thickbox is triggered before the dataset is
fully loaded:

You can try this:
1.- Open thickbox.js, Copy the content include in the function attached to
"$(document).ready" (lines 14 to 16):
tb_init('a.thickbox, area.thickbox, input.thickbox');//pass where to apply
thickbox
imgLoader = new Image();// preload image
imgLoader.src = tb_pathToImage;

2.- Comment the whole function, because we'll trigger it using Spry

3.- Now, go to the main document where you defined the observer:
This is your current code:
<script>
...
function myRegionCallback(notificationState, notifier, data) {
if (notificationType == "onPreUpdate")
alert(regionID + " is starting an update!");
else if (notificationType == "onPostUpdate")
alert(regionID + " is done updating!");
}
</script>
<link href="css/thickbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var dsCalendar = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("DNUdata.php?epoch=<?php echo
$epoch
?>",
"root/row",{sortOnLoad:"app_time",sortOrderOnLoad:"ascending",useCache:false,loa
dInterval:1500});
//-->
Spry.Data.Region.addObserver("ddetail", MyRegionCallback);
</script>


4.- We can simplify things a bit; Since we are only interested in the moment
when the region is finished, we'll replace the callback function with an
region observer object:

<link href="css/thickbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var dsCalendar = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("DNUdata.php?epoch=<?php echo
$epoch
?>",
"root/row",{sortOnLoad:"app_time",sortOrderOnLoad:"ascending",useCache:false,loa
dInterval:1500});
//create the observer
TB_Observer= new Object()
TB_Observer.onPostUpdate = function()
{
//we can launch the thickbox
tb_init('a.thickbox, area.thickbox, input.thickbox');//pass where to apply
thickbox
imgLoader = new Image();// preload image
imgLoader.src = tb_pathToImage;
};
Spry.Data.Region.addObserver("ddetail", TB_Observer);
//-->
</script>
