I wonder if it would be a good idea to make Thickbox an "official"
plugin, hosting the development on jQuery.com (the demo is there
already). It seems like Cody is overwhelmed with feedback and questions:
"ThickBox has received more attention than I had initially expected - so
much so that I am a little overwhelmed with the notoriety and somewhat
dumbfounded by all the individuals using it. Truthfully, I developed the
solution as a proof of concept and personal endeavor to showcase the
jQuery <http://www.jquery.com> library."
By hosting it on jQuery.com, the jQuery community could work together to
improve this greate piece of software and to answer all those questions
about it.
There are now two derivates on the plugin list and there may be more. I
have no idea which one of those I should use: Use thickbox itself? Use
tweenbox, that may be improved at one thing but may lack another, that
is now fixed is the newest thickbox version? Or use Slightly Thickerbox,
which claims to support Interface, but uses the same auto-deploy feature
($(document).ready(TB_init);) that I don't like at all.
And then I read your mail with really nice improvments to an essential
part of Thickbox.
Therefore my request to commit Thickbox to the jQuery subversion, to
port back improvements from derivates, to improve whatever is possible
(like the stuff Klaus did) and then to rule them (all those XXXbox
derivates) all! In other words, make it a top level project, like they
use to say at the Eclipse foundation :-)
