FAQ
Q:Is it possible to load a gallery from within image? So the gallery loads externally?
A:You should start the gallery onClick: <script type="text/javascript"> #vlightbox a{ #vlightbox a{
1) Add the following function into the <head> tag:
function showLightBox()
{ Lightbox.start(document.getElementById('firstImage'));}
</script>
<img src="thumbnail_gr.jpg" onClick="javascript:showLightBox()" title="Click to see the demo" style="cursor: pointer;">
3) Set the ID for any image in your gallery (id="firstImage"), for example add it to the first image:
<a rel="lightbox_vlb" href="data/images/dscn6831.jpg" title="dscn6831" id="firstImage">
4) Use 'display: none;' property for your gallery in engine\css\vlightbox.css. Just change the following code:
display:-moz-inline-stack;
display:inline-block;
zoom:1;

vertical-align:top;
