Joomla gallery2 bridge component: From front end of joomla site, gallery does not open image folders, neither full image

Hi, all.
I know this has been discussed before, however I have read every post found in google in regards to this issue and I am still not able to find a solution for this yet. I'm using the Gallery2 bridge for Joomla and I cannot make my Gallery2 function as it should (opening folders and allowing view of full size image) from within joomla embeded. I have read previous posts and so far all of them have been resolved in a pretty reasonable/obvious way, such as granting permissions for "everybody". I have tried all of the other posts solutions, and everything works stand alone my joomla and my gallery2, however Can anyone help me?
