Suckerfish HoverLightbox
From time to time I come across some truly impressive techniques that are a great blend of CSS, XHTML, and sometimes JavaScript. Personally, I am not a big fan of implementing JavaScript, but it is sometimes unavoidable. That is usually due to circumstances created by certain browsers that will remain named: Internet Explorer. I was truly impressed by the development of the Hoverbox Image Gallery written by Nathan Smith of SonSpring. It was great to come across some optimization of the code by Craig Erskine and I thought it was a really creative way to show a collection of images in a gallery. After starting a project with a colleague, I was struck with an idea. How would it look to blend this technique with a set of Suckerfish Dropdowns originally published by A List Apart (and revised)? Take a look for yourself:
