CMSB and Lightbox Can't Post

Has anyone tackled an integration of CMSB with one of the Lightbox variations (Lightbox2, Redux, etc.)?

We have used several different versions, but the easiest is FancyZoom

Lightbox 2 was very easy. I followed the newsletter article that Donna wrote.

I've done a few versions of Lightbox (Litebox, Lytebox, etc.) They all get integrated roughly the same way. :)

Thank you all for these suggestions. I've only used Redux and although it's straightforward enough, I'm always keen to hear what other's think.

Now to find that article of Donna's... ;-)

Hello, All

In my experience "Grey Box" is the best system to use. It's very solid and easy to install. It can even utilise "info1, info2, etc.." data for titles and captions.

Whatever lightbox you use you just need to find the pattern in the list of images. Whether it's a javascript list, or xml, or something else, as long as there is a pattern you can output the code with CMS Builder.

If you can post some code (or an url) that specifies the list of images for Redux I could have a look and let you know how easy it would be to manage with CMS Builder.

Hope that helps!

Thanks as always Dave!
I may just take you up on this. It will have to wait a bit as I'm in the middle of 3 new CMSB builds.
Loving this product!
