0 Comments Published September 28th, 2009 in jquery, Open Source, plugins, Web 2.0, Web design, Wordpress.
I’m adding up plugins in my site as I need it. Now, I encounter a need to have a lightbox image preview, a javascript tool that allow a larger set of image to be displayed in a nice way.
I have browsed around, and have to choose something that compatible to my site requirements. For example, I’ve been using jquery for other javascript effects in this site. So, i need to find a jquery version of lightbox, and I found this, a Jquery version of Lightbox.
You just need to add some code in your link tag to the bigger picture, as shown here:
You just need to put the rel attribute inside your a tag, so that it will trigger the javascript to load your target in a nice lightbox frame. You can also configure more than one image to be viewed in sequence in lightbox. You can also load more than 1 sequence of pictures. How to do it, also within the rel attribute.
Download the plugin here. Just put it in your wp-content/plugins/ folder, and you’re ready to use it.
