Try loading jQuery first and your gallery library last. If you look in  
your Firebug console, you’ll see the gallery library saying jQuery  
isn’t defined.

Good luck!

Here’s the problem with you page:

a) The jQuery library should come before any of its plugin libraries  
and  
you should have seen the errors within Firefox and/or Safari.  
b) The page above consists of 26 error messages and I would recommend  
validating your pages using [http://validator.w3.org](http://validator.w3.org).

Good luck,
