The Widgetkit Lightbox allows you to view images, HTML and multi-media content on a dark dimmed overlay without having to leave the current page.
Different animations - fade, elastic and none
<a href="/images/sample-data/1.jpg" data-lightbox="transitionIn:fade; transitionOut:fade;" class="margin-right-bottom"><img src="/images/sample-data/1-thumb.jpg" border="0" alt="fade" width="250" height="188" /></a>
Different title positions - float, inside and over
<a href="/images/sample-data/1.jpg" data-spotlight="on" data-lightbox="transitionIn:elastic; transitionOut:elastic; titlePosition:float;" title="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, vis cu minim imperdiet democritum." class="margin-right-bottom"><img src="/images/sample-data/1-thumb.jpg" border="0" alt="fade" width="250" height="188" /></a>
You can use it in a gallery

Various examples in one gallery (try also using the keyboard and mouse scroll wheel)
Use #wk-ID to load widgets like slideshows or galleries in a lightbox. For example: Widgetkit Slideshow
<a data-lightbox="width:600;height:375;" href="#wk-1">Lightbox</a>
