ThickBox
March 18, 2016
ThickBox plugin automatically enables thickbox on thumbnail images (i.e. opens the images in a fancy pop-up). It is a webpage UI dialog widget written in JavaScript on top of the jQuery library. Its function is to show a single image, multiple images, inline content, iframed content, or content served through AJAX in a hybrid modal. When you click the main image, you see the thickbox image.
Benefits of ThickBox plugin:
-
Zoom effect with overlay shadow.
-
Floating and smooth cross-fade transition.
-
ThickBox can be invoked from a link element, input element (typically a button), and the area element (image maps).
-
Editing capabilities.
-
Automatic thumbnail creation.
-
Adding caption.
-
Does not require extra mark-up.
-
ThickBox offers versatility (images, iframed content, inline content, and AJAX content).
Notice! The ThickBox JavaScript code and CSS file only add an additional 15k (only 10k by using the thickbox-compressed.js) on top of the jQuery code. The CSS file could additionally be compressed if there is any need. ThickBox will resize images that are bigger than the browser window.
