Anyone skilled enough with JavaScript can get any of the Lightbox
variants to work, either through customization or by writing
functions. My goal was to share a solution that avoids that level of
complexity. If you're building custom jQuery apps, you're probably not
needing help with this in the first place. :-)
My preference would be framework-independent: some kind of GInfoWindow
property or listener (was so hoping to get onOpenFn to work, but was
unsuccessful...)
Cheers!
