1) Script Title: Lightbox 2

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/lightbox2/index.htm

3) Describe problem:

Hey, all.
Can I put this SWF gallery: http://www.flashden.net/item/circular-elliptical-gallery/20921 inside the Lightbox 2 pop-up?
If so, how? There's no instructions for it on the Lightbox 2 page.

I know it's possible with "Thickbox" (a similar script) to put in a web page with the SWF in it, by adding height and width to the link,
like this
"abc.html?height=700&width=900"

Same with this?

Thanks!

No, but there is FlashInLightbox:

for Lightbox 2.04 - also works with my Lightbox 2.04a:

FlashInLightbox itself is pretty simple, and may need a little modification to run that gallery. But as it is such a simple script, it should be fairly easy to modify to your needs.

However, since one would need to upgrade one's Lightbox version and add in the helper script swfobject v2.1 - if Thickbox will suit your needs - you could just as easily go that route.

Thanks, but I found the best of the best, in my opinion: http://www.dolem.com/lytebox/
Works fantastic and is VERY easy to figure out. And it has the cool animation opening.:)
