| How to use lightbox? |
| Lightbox 2 uses the Prototype Framwork and Scriptaculous Effects Library. |
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effect/builder"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lightbox.js"> </script>

| Include the Lightbox CSS |
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" media="screen" />
|
|
|
| Check the CSS and make sure the referenced gif files are in the right location. Also, make sure the loading.gif and close.gif files are referenced near the top of the lightbox.js file are in the right location. |
| Add a rel ="" attribute to any link tag to activate the lightbox . For example: |
<a href="images/images1.gif" rel="lightbox" title="My captions">image #1</a>
|

If you have a set of related images that you would like to group, follow step one but additionally include a group name between square brackets in the rel attribute . For example: |
<a href="images/images1.gif" rel="lightbox[roadtrip]" >image #1</a>
<a href="images/images1.gif" rel="lightbox[roadtrip]" >image #1</a>
<a href="images/images1.gif" rel="lightbox[roadtrip]" >image #1</a> |
