Speaking about lightbox 2.03.

Do you know how to call lightbox gallery with rel="exmaple1" from javascript?

like onClick="javascript:exmaple1"

Does anyone know? with jQuery would be alright too..


Thank you for any help!

In future, please post new questions in a new thread like here where I've moved this post, and:

To answer your question though, you can do, say your anchor that you want activated has an id:


<a href="some_big.jpg" id="image_2" rel="lightbox"><img src="some_small.jpg" alt=""></a>

To activate it from javascript:


myLightbox.start(document.getElementById('image_2')).apply(document.getElementById('image_2'));
