Lightbox Gone Wild is a JavaScript tool used to overlay other pages on the current page using AJAX. It looks nice and is really user-friendly. One problem : we on Blogger cannot create a static HTML page on the same domain to be included via AJAX.
So I have modified the code slightly. My version will include snippets from your local page instead. Just include these lines in your <head> section:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jscripts.ning.com/get.php?xn_auth=no&id=1093361"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jscripts.ning.com/get.php?xn_auth=no&id=2655847"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://singpolyma.googlepages.com/lightbox.css" />
Then, insert the HTML you want to be displayed in the lightbox like so:
<div id="lightbox-id" style="display:none;">
HTML HERE
</div>
Make sure you have a link similar to this in the code to be inserted so that the lightbox can be closed again:
<a href="#" class="lbAction" rel="deactivate">Close</a>
Then, insert a link to open the lightbox, like so:
<a class="lbOn" href="#lightbox-id">Open Lightbox</a>
To see an example, click the calendar icon next to the archives in my sidebar.
Not sure why I'm linking to translations today. I usually don't. They show up in the backlinks, and saying in English 'here's a translation' doesn't make loads of sense. They deserve a link though. A translation of this post.
