ThickBox is a webpage UI dialog widget written in JavaScript on top of the jQuery library. Its function is to show a single image, multiple images, inline content, iframed content, or content served through AJAX in a hybrid modal.

Features:

* ThickBox was built using the super lightweight jQuery library. Compressed, the jQuery library is 19k, uncompressed it’s 55k.
* The ThickBox JavaScript code and CSS file only add an additional 12k on top of the jQuery code. Together, the compressed jQuery code and ThickBox only total 31k.
* ThickBox will resize images that are bigger than the browser window.
* ThickBox offers versatility (images, iframed content, inline content, and AJAX content).
* ThickBox will hide form elements in Windows IE 6.
* ThickBox will remain centered in the window even when the user scrolls the page or changes the size of the browser window. Clicking an image, the overlay, or close link will remove ThickBox.
* The ThickBox creator has decided that animation should be tailored by individual authors. So yeah, ThickBox no longer animates. Is this a feature? Well, some might say it is.
