    </ul>

  <script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/slick-lightbox.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){

    });
  </script>
</body>
</html>

Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
background	string	`rgba(0,0,0,.8)`	Background for the lightbox. Is used directly as a CSS `background` statement so that color and/or an image can be used.
closeOnEscape	boolean	`true`	Should the lightbox close upon pressing ESC?
closeOnBackdropClick	boolean	`true`	Should the lightbox close upon clicking on backdrop?
destroyTimeout	number	`500`	How many ms should we wait before actually removing the lightbox from the DOM? The default is used so that a 0.5s opacity transition can take place.
itemSelector	string	`a`	jQuery-like selector for the carousel-to-create items. The items should be anchors with `href` attribute aiming at the desired lightbox image. If that's not the case, you should specify the `src` option.
navigateByKeyboard	boolean	`true`	Can you use keyboard arrows to navigate the carousel?
slick	object	`{}`	Slick options to pass to the carousel.
caption	various	`false`	Should the images be captioned? If `false`, no caption is created. You can pass your own function accepting the `element` and `info` attributes (e.g. `function(element, info) { return $(element).doSomething(); }`, with `info` being an `{ index: itemIndex, length: itemCount }` object) or a string with the name of the `data-attribute` to be fetched (`my-caption` will get the value of `data-my-caption` attribute).
src	various	`false`	How to get the image urls? If `false`, no src is taken as the `href` attribute. You can pass your own function accepting the element as an attribute (e.g. `function(element) { return $(element).doSomething(); }`) or a string with the name of the attribute to be fetched (`src` will get the value of `element.src` attribute).
captionPosition	various	`'dynamic'`	Where should the caption be placed? When set to 'dynamic', the caption is displayed right under the image. When 'bottom', the caption is on the bottom of the screen independent to the image size.
images	various	`false`	When passed an array, slick lightbox doesn't scan the elements for image URLs and uses array's values instead.
useHistoryApi	boolean	`false`	When `true`, opening the lightbox does a `history.pushState`. The plugin then listens for the `popstate` event to close the lightbox.
layouts	object		See Layouts
shouldOpen	function	`null`	Given a function, checks the return value before opening. If the function returns a falsy value, the lightbox is not opened upon clicking on the items. Accepts three arguments - the slick lightbox instance as the first, the clicked element as the second and the click event as the last.
imageMaxHeight	number	`0.9`	Maximum height of the lightbox images. Relative to the window height.
lazy	boolean	`false`	Should the images be lazyloaded?
lazyPlaceholder	string	`null`	Path to lazyloading placeholder. Defaults to a blank gif.

Events

Events are triggered on the source element. Example:

$(document).ready(function(){
  $('ul').slickLightbox().on({
    'show.slickLightbox': function(){ console.log('A `show.slickLightbox` event triggered.'); },1
    'shown.slickLightbox': function(){ console.log('A `shown.slickLightbox` event triggered.'); },
    'hide.slickLightbox': function(){ console.log('A `hide.slickLightbox` event triggered.'); },
    'hidden.slickLightbox': function(){ console.log('A `hidden.slickLightbox` event triggered.'); }
  });
});

Event	Description
show.slickLightbox	Triggered when the lightbox is opened.
shown.slickLightbox	Triggered when the lightbox is opened, after the transitions took place.
hide.slickLightbox	Triggered when the lightbox is closed.
hidden.slickLightbox	Triggered when the lightbox is closed, after the transitions took place.

Layouts

The layout is customizable using the layouts option object.

layouts.closeButton, which defaults to <button type="button" class="slick-lightbox-close"></button>

You can access the lightbox instance through the bound element. It's assigned to .slickLightbox. Example:

$('#my-element').slickLightbox()
console.log('My slickLightbox instance:', $('#my-element')[0].slickLightbox)
// once a lightbox is opened
console.log('My slick instance:', $('#my-element')[0].slickLightbox.slick)

Demos

The slick-lightbox demo page contains various setups of slick lightbox.
