    It’s not a widget. It’s a method of using javascript to display what is known as the lightbox effect.

    There are a few plugins available. Check out this one or search around for lightbox

    This is definatly the plug in but i am not sure i understand how top use it.. I feel silly it is working i think… but how to sue it??

    all the instructions say on the website and the text file in the plugin is

    “# Add a rel=”lightbox” attribute to any link tag to activate the lightbox, or rel=”lightbox[roadtrip]” for image set.”

    What dose that mean nayone know?

    yeah, so basically you have the HTML code that displays a small picture, using the
    img src= code

    I think you put that pic inside a Link to a full-size picture, using the
    a href= code

    so after the a you can put
    rel="lightbox"

    i don’t use it I’m guessing based on what it said and what lightbox is for

    I use the Lightbox 2 plugin. Once it’s activated, I don’t have to do anything. The effect is automatically applied to all pictures. I only need to add code if I want the pictures displayed in a series, or I don’t want the lightbox applied.
