the problem was in your variable define syntax and also you need to wrap your jQuery script into no conflict wrapper, try this
jQuery(window).load(function($) {
// your function
});
or
(function($) {
// your function
})(jQuery);
complete working script
(function($) {
$(window).load(function() {
var lightBox = $('#lightbox');
var lightBoxContent = $('#lb-content');
var positionLightbox = function() {
var veiwWidth = $(window).width();
var lbContentMargin = (veiwWidth / 2) - 148;
var lbContent = $('#lb-content');
lbContent.css({
'left' : lbContentMargin,
'top' : $(window).scrollTop() + 50 + 'px'
});
};
$('.modal-trigger').click(function() {
lightBox.fadeIn(function() {
lightBoxContent.show();
});
positionLightbox();
});
$('#lb-close').click(function() {
lightBox.hide();
lightBoxContent.hide();
});
});
})(jQuery);
