Implementing TinyBox2 in Blogger
TinyBox2 is the successor of the previously published resource TinyBox which is a standalone JavaScript modal windows library.The library is lightweight (5kb) and supports images, iframes, HTML and Ajax requests natively.
Steps to Add it to Blogger:
1.Login to the Blogger account.
2. Now Go to Design > Edit HTML.
3.Now search for the </head> tag and paste the following code just Above/Before it.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/TinyBox2/style.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/TinyBox2/tinybox.js"></script>
2.Go to the Post/Page you want to add TinyBox2 and then go to Edit HTML tab .
3.Now copy the code from below and paste it there.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/TinyBox2/style.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/TinyBox2/tinybox.js"></script>
4.Now for adding the images into TinyBox2
If images are to be added then this is the code:
<li onclick="TINY.box.show({image:'http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/3%20%282%29.jpg',boxid:'frameless', animate:true,openjs:function(){openJS()}})">Image, Load Callback</li>
If iFrame content is to added:
<li onclick="TINY.box.show({iframe:'http://www.google.com/',boxid:'frameless',width:750,height:450,fixed:false, maskid:'bluemask',maskopacity:40,closejs:function(){closeJS()}})">iFrame, Blue Mask, Absolute Position, Frameless, Close Callback</li>
5.Now save the Post/Page and see the magic.
Note: Please Host all the files on free hosting service like DropBox or Blogspot itself !
