ViewBox Demo

Start by including the ViewBox CSS and Javascript. Requires jQuery 1.12.0 or higher (dosen't work with the slim build).

<link rel="stylesheet" href="viewbox.css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.viewbox.min.js"></script>

Viewbox as Image Viewer

Optional: Add a title or data-viewbox-title attribute if you want to show a caption.

<a href="images/i1.jpg" class="image-link">
	<img src="images/i1-thumb.jpg" alt="">
</a>
<a href="images/i2.jpg" class="image-link" title="Image Title">
	<img src="images/i2-thumb.jpg" alt="">
</a>
<a href="images/i3.jpg" class="image-link">
	<img src="images/i3-thumb.jpg" alt="">
</a>

Apply viewbox() method to a set of image links.

$(function(){
	$('.image-link').viewbox();
});

Viewbox and Custom HTML Content

Make an anchor link which points to content element.

<p><a href="#popup" class="popup-link">Open popup window</a></p>
<p><button type="button" class="popup-open-button">Open popup window</button></p>

<!-- Use invisible wraper to hide popup window content -->
<div style="display:none;">
	<div id="popup">
		<h3>Popup content</h3>
		<p>Some text for popup window.</p>
		<p><button type="button" class="close-button">Close</button></p>
	</div>
</div>

Apply viewbox() method to an anchor link which points to content element.

$(function(){
	var vb = $('.popup-link').viewbox();
	
	//optional: custom close button
	$('.close-button').click(function(){
		vb.trigger('viewbox.close');
	});
});

Or apply viewbox() method to a content element.

$(function(){
	var vb = $('#popup').viewbox();
	
	$('.popup-open-button').click(function(){
		vb.trigger('viewbox.open');
	});
});

viewbox.open

Example: var vb = $('a.viewbox').viewbox();
vb.trigger('viewbox.open',[index]);
index - index of item to show (0 default)

viewbox.close

Closes Viewbox (if it is not already closed)
Example: var vb = $('a.viewbox').viewbox();
$('.button-close').click(function(){
  vb.trigger('viewbox.close');
});

viewbox.next

Shows next image in the set.
Example: var vb = $('a.viewbox').viewbox();
vb.trigger('viewbox.next');

viewbox.prev

Shows previous image in the set.
Example: var vb = $('a.viewbox').viewbox();
vb.trigger('viewbox.prev');
