Fancybox 2 Custom Titles and Captions [from A(title) and IMG(alt]

Question

I\'m trying to use title and \"captions\" from image alt tags with fancybox 2... for some reason I can\'t seem this to work...

    $(\'.fancybox\').fancybo         


        

Answer 1

If I understood right, you want fancybox title as a combination of the title attribute in the a tag + the alt attribute in the img tag.

If the above is correct, then having a html like

the fancybox title should say "title anchor 01 alt image 01"

you do that with this script:

$(document).ready(function() {
 $(".fancybox").fancybox({
  helpers : {
   title: { type: 'inside'}
  },
  afterLoad: function(){
   this.title = this.title + ' ' + $(this.element).find('img').attr('alt');
  }
 }); // fancybox
}); // ready
