(The following use the javascript libraries of Prototype and Scriptaculous we've talked about in class.)
In the last class I noticed a few of us implemented the Lightbox 2.0 Image Viewer on the image gallery. This post relates to the same effect as Lightbox for viewing images... and more!
1) From Lightbox, Jonathan Chirstopher at Suckerfish developed the Suckerfish Hoverbox Redux. I'm not sure if I would really use this myself but wanted to show you yet another derivative of a simple idea that really took off.
2) An alternative to Lightbox is Lightview. Which does single images and galleries like Lightbox but also it does Quicktime, Ajax Form, Ajax Post, iframe, inline content and SWF (Flash)
"Lightview was built to change the way you overlay content on a website.
- Clean: Designed to compliment your content.
- Fast: Smart image preloading.
- Easy: Customizable without having to know CSS.
- Rounded: Adjustable rounded corners, no PNG images required.
- Smart: Content resizes to always fit on your screen.
- Slideshow: One button slideshow.
- Works on all modern browsers. "
