HL-Box plugin for Joomla! 1.5 Plugin

HL-box for Joomla 1.5 is a plugin for HL-box, a simple and extra small JavaScript that highlights parts of your content in a page, darkening with an overlay all the rest. In the standard version it integrates code from Slimbox JavaScript by Christophe Beyls, very useful to nicely showcase your images.
If you already use Slimbox or another similar Js you can set the stand alone version in plugin parameters.
The plugin has some parameters that makes your work simpler. In case you want more flexibility you can override them interacting directly with css.
The use of this plugin requires a knowledge of html and css: You have to manually insert the code, however it is really flexible and it works. I use it extensively.
I originally wrote the Js and the plugin for my new website.
I setup a documentation page and a support forum for your questions.

Works great, I tried few other plugins out there, they offered solutions for automatic thumbnail creation but in the end they were all buggy etc.

This one makes me do most stuff by hand, but at least the effect is perfect.

This is one useful script that will enable basic enlargement of images keeping the user within the same html window. In addition to that, it will let you browse the next image while staying in Maximum window mode.
