jQuery Lightbox / Modal Plugin

Comments (2)

There are SO MANY different types of lightbox scripts in the wild, and while most of them are absolutely fantastic (shadowbox being one of my favorites) most of them are very limited in the control that they give you over the style, function and code.

If you’re like me, and you do a lot of customization or want to tweak your code to be as fast as possible, then you’ll want this simple little jquery lightbox plugin. Style your lightbox exactly how you’d like and then simple invoke the modal() function and you’ll be able to trigger the lightbox.

Setup SVN in Hostmonster Shared Hosting

Comments (13)


I’ve had my fair share of installs in shared hosting, but sometimes simple things like SVN can get very tricky with providers like Hostmonster or BlueHost. I hope that this shell will work as well for you as it has for me. Just copy the code and paste into a file on your server svninstall.sh and then to run just execute . .svninstall.sh and you’re off! Comment here if you get and errors and I’d be glad to help.
