 * Ok so my topic subject line doesnt make much sense, so i’ll try and be descriptive
   here.
 * Basically all I want to do is have WordPress add ‘rel=”lightbox”‘ into the image
   display code so the code goes from looking like:
 * ‘< a title=”IMG.jpg” href=”URL.jpg”>’
 * to:
 * ‘< a rel=”lightbox” href=”URL.jpg”>’
 * And yes, I want to replace the ‘title’ tag with the rel= tag.
 * Obviously I could edit this in each post I make but that would ultimately be 
   more time consuming. It would be far easier if I modified the code of WordPress
   so when the image uploader sends the code to the editor it already includes the
   rel= tag.
 * Hope to get some help on this soon.

 * I solved half of the problem. I needed to edit a section in inline-uploading.

 * You have posted this question twice.
 * And it helps enormously if you leave the title tag in place within a hyperlink.
   Accessability is important.
 * Specialised readers will voice that tag out, so those who cannot view your website
   will at least have their machine to read it to them and know what that link /
   image is.

 * I decided to leave the title tag in for that very reason actually.
 * Any idea about inserting the rel=”lightbox” tag though?
