have been using the jquery plugins
for long. Many times I do need to implement facebook-like photo viewer
in gallery pages. Similarly, mostly in admin pages of my asp.net
web applications, I frequently us modal pop-ups for various purposes
like ajax loading of content, iframe loading from other internal pages,
confirmation and error show ups. Typically I used to go for separate
plugins for the purpose. Lately I found the ColorBox plugin that satisfies both the needs. In one sense, this is a framework for me. You can visit ColorBox and explore it.
