Set max width 800px on Lightbox plugin

13,931

Solution 1

I modified the jquery.lightbox-0.5.js file by Leandro Vieira Pinho. What this modified javascript file does is, it will check each image and if the width or height exceeds the screen (viewport area), then the image is resized while preserving the aspect ratio.

To use this file, you just have to copy and paste entire contents of this javascript file in your already existing jquery.lightbox-0.5.js file or you just have to replace the old file with this.

I have given 2 links: First one will let you down load the entire javascript file and the second will display the source code which you can copy and paste into your existing jquery.lightbox-0.5.js.

Download javascript file: http://turboupload.com/081zwttawcb6

Source code : http://www.sourcepod.com/twhbtf88-5047

Solution 2

You could just use css:

#lightbox-container-image-box {
  max-width:970px; // Or your max-width
}

#lightbox-container-image img {
 max-width:950px; // (your max width - 20)
}

this has a slight issue on the current release of lightbox, the grey background doesn't get all the way down the page - but there is a lot that can be done here with just css. I'd recommend against modifying the codebase of lightbox - breaks forward-compatibility.
