    Im looking for the image script they use on this site :

    http://www.sitepoint.com/marketplace/auction/9779

    and hundreds of other sites, to show the larger image on the same page, with the background faded transparent black almost.

    Can someone please tell me if this is a free script somewhere? Or if there is a website selling it if it is not free?


    I have tried searching all over DP and google / yahoo, but im just not coming up with the right keywords, I can't find this for the life of me.

    Thank you very much if you can help

    Joe

    I was looking for something like that too... i was working on an ajax todo list and needed a "processing" image to show up with the background faded. Did not find anything, so I just made the script faster and removed the "whistles and bells".

    So you have a working script? want to sell it to me?

    There has to be a free version somewhere i have seen so many sites with it recently. I just must not know the right search terms cause im not pulling anything up.

    Im gonna try looking through ajax tutorials im hoping maybe someone wrote a tutorial on making one.

    Certainly not that difficult to achieve with the .Net Ajax toolkit

    Well... although Lightbox will do it, taking 2 minutes to look at the source of the given link seems to imply that it's a library called ThickBox. I'd have a look at that, too, at http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/ .

    No, i didnt figure out how to make it. I just made the app a whole lot faster so the loading screen was not needed.

    forget ajax your not going to need it, overlaying a image is dead easy and fading out the background is done by placing a transparent png image over the screen "css code is on the lightbox homepage"

    Oh jeese, I hate those type of image displays with a PASSION!!!

    But, no ajax needed on this one.. Just some animated loading gif set as a background to a div or so, and the image will load over it..
