Hi

The lightbox is a really good way of displaying things ...but If you go to

http://www.enhancedwireless.net/Technology/PARROT_Units.shtml

and mouseover any one of the 3 products on the page, you get the title text for the words that go on the lightbox effect bottom bar - so they don't make sense appearing as they do when you mouseover the product thumbnail...is there a way to have this text only appear at the bottom of the lightbox bar and NOT when we mouseover the thumbnail? In other words can I place this text elsewhere and have it show on the lightbox effect and a different text show when hover over the thumbnail?

Thanks much

(I'd like to know this, too. I'm having the same problem. If you use the alt attribute, IE will show that, instead; but, Fx behaves 'correctly' and displays the title.)

if I remove the text or place something else there, that new text appears also at the bottom of the lightbox border of the image - click on the thumbnail and you'll see what I mean.

so whatever text I place in the code unfortuanely appears also on the mouse over of the thumbnails, but if I remove it, it will also be removed from the lightbox bottom border where I need it to be. Is there another area for this text to be placed where it will show up only on the border of the lightbox image?

Have you looked at the javascript, to see if you can write the text within it, rather than in the link?
Line #186 in the lightbox JS has the HTML applied to each image. You could try adding something to that. You may need to style it in the accompanying CSS external file.

Good Luck -
