Attach fancybox/lightbox/idontknowbox function on an element
- by tanathos
I'm developing a jquery gallery, and I want to parametrize the highlighter function to support any kind of lightboxes (fancybox for example).
In my defaults I did something like:
$.fn.mygallery.defaults = {
functionHighlighter: null
}
so in the code, creating the item, I'll check this property, and if it's setted to a function, I want to call it on the element:
if ((typeof opt.functionHighlighter) === "function") {
opt.functionHighlighter.call(link);
}
where link is the anchor element containing the miniature image, with href setted to the original image. In my idea, when the plugin is called, I set the function with:
$("#gallery").mygallery({ functionHighlighter: $.fancybox });
but the "call" on the functionHighlighter executes directly the fancybox, that returns an empty area.
What I want to emulate is the execution of
link.fancybox();
that correctly builds the plugin on link.
Any ideas?
