You keep a simple core, but it would be nice if other developers could use Thickbox as a base for their 'own bells and whistles'. Get a good solid base for others to build on, rather than them needing to do their own from scratch (so they don't need to work out how to centre on the page, overlay page content, resize images etc). e.g. In your html page add thickbox: <script type="text/javascript" src="thickbox.js"></script> And add the class 'thickbox' to anything you want to show in one. Want it to look better (like adding transparency or transitions)? Just include another script: <script type="text/javascript" src="thickbox-addon-fancy.js"></script> No need to change your JavaScript (or even know JavaScript). Like you say - 'one box to rule them all'. If developers want to have something else thickbox isn't a choice. Having it modular means that they can use it without going somewhere else and needing prototype or changing a lot of code. > > > Sam Collett wrote: > > > > If (or should I say when) Thickbox does a lot more (like transition > > animations between images in a gallery etc), then the code size would > > increase. > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/Thickbox-incompatible-with-jQuery-1.1-tf3063738.html#a8599437 > Sent from the JQuery mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > > _______________________________________________ > jQuery mailing list > discuss@jquery.com > http://jquery.com/discuss/ > _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
