 * I know this is pretty basic stuff . . but . .
    I just want to create a simple
   lightbox slideshow within a WP/TwentyTen website that’s called up by clicking
   on a **single** image shown on the page, that then enables the viewer to click
   backwards and forwards through the set. Each image in the set has a title. I’m
   finding the guidance available to do this simple thing in all the plugins I’ve
   seen to be non-existent (maybe it’s me ;)). I have Lightbox 2 installed. What
   I have tried is putting
 *     ```
       <a title="xx" href="aa.jpg" rel="lightbox[name]">Text</a>
       <a title="xx" href="bb.jpg" rel="lightbox[name]"></a>
       <a title="xx" href="cc.jpg" rel="lightbox[name]"></a>
       etc
       ```
   
 * into the page html but it doesn’t work – just displays the first image, with 
   no slideshow.
    Please help ! Thanks for any and all assistance.
 * PS (is there an easy method for doing this, suitable for a dunderhead like me?)
