    Hey guys,

    My JavaScript is poor so go easy! I'm implementing a lightbox2 popover. I want to display a seperate page in the lightbox after a specified delay (in seconds).

    I'm trying to build a function to call using the html body onload... so far I've got this...

    
function load()
{
	window.setTimeout(showlightbox(),8000);
}
function showlightbox()
{
	location.href = "pop.html" rel="lightbox" title="Pop";
}
    Code (markup):
    ...obviously it doesnt work :D

    Anyone got any pointers?

    Cheers

    Thats the problem, I havent seen anyone using lightbox2 to display another page with a delay.

    http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/ has examples of how the lightbox is used, but I need to find out how to make the lightbox display another page (needs to be called with 'rel="lightbox"' and be able to set a delay).

    Thanks for your reply.
