WHAT IS LIGHTBOX 2?
(Click on any of the sample images above to see them expand and overlay on the page using Lightbox2.)
Lightbox2 is a script created by Lokesh Dhakar. It creates an overlay of your image and unfolds it on top of the current webpage.
GIVE LIGHTBOX 2 A TRY... • To get started, download the Lighbox2 package here (scroll to the middle of the page until you see "Download Lightbox v2.04"). • Follow the "How To Use: Setup" instructions; it requires you to copy pre-written script in your DW code. • You will also have to copy over the Lightbox2 css and js folders to your DW site. • If you want to set up something like you see below, t's a good idea to have your .jpg images ready before you get started. • LB2 requires your smaller "thumbnail" images (see above) and your larger overlay images in order to function properly. See script below:
• The rel="lightbox" must be included otherwise Lightbox2 won't function. Also, title is a optional feature (but allows you to include photo captions).
