Slightly ThickerBox


Slightly ThickerBox is a modification of Cody Lindley's Thickbox script. I modified it for use on my Jason's Toolbox Redesign. The modifications allow the script to generate "Previous Image" and "Next Image" links. The result is that you can use Slightly ThickerBox to create image galleries. In addition, you can create groups of galleries by setting a "rel" attribute on the links. (I also moved the Caption and Close link to the top and made the script case insensitive.)
