I've been working for the past few days with Redbox.  It's got some 'cruft'
that needed to be cleaned up, but it was pretty easy to figure out.  I
haven't worked with the other.  There was a brief exchange yesterday about
the same topic and another library was mentioned.  It was titled "what is
the preferred 'lightbox' plugin".

This is done with an image background on the div that gets rendered into
your lightbox.  You'll need to style it with something like:

 width: 999px;
 height: 555px;
 background-image: url(../images/total_box.png);

The image won't display (at least it wouldn't for me) if you don't specify
the width and height.

HTH,
Bill
