An Awesome CSS3 Lightbox Gallery


An Awesome CSS3 Lightbox Gallery

In this tutorial we are going to create an awesome image gallery which leverages the latest CSS3 and jQuery techniques. The script will be able to scan a folder of images on your web server and build a complete drag and drop lighbox gallery around it.

It will be search-engine friendly and even be compatible with browsers which date back as far as IE6 (although some of the awesomeness is lost).

We are using jQuery, jQuery UI (for the drag and drop) and the fancybox jQuery plugin for the lightbox display in addition to PHP and CSS for interactivity and styling.

Before reading on, I would suggest that you download the example files and have the demo opened in a tab for reference.

So lets start with step one.
