Hello,

I think it might be a good idea for a multilanguage environment to replace the prev and next image with arrow-alike images and to make all other text language independant.

Maybe the 'image X of Y' could be replaced with 'X/Y' and could have an arrow left and right before and after this text to have an alternative browsing.

The next release of lightbox2 will allow users the ability to configure the "View Image Details" and "Image x of y" strings, which will now also support multilingual sites. The CVS version already does this. The prev, next and close buttons are trickier but I'm currently looking into various solutions.

Cheers,
Stella

I decided to go with your suggestion in the end (images with no text). I had hoped to make it multi-lingual but it was trickier than I imagined. There are actually images already included in the lightbox2/images/ directory which are the non-text versions - prev.gif, next.gif and close.gif. You should be able to just modify the css file and change the paths, but you may also need to tweak the positioning if you modify the close image.

For the next release, the module will use the non-text versions by default. The existing text images will still be included for anyone who wishes to continue to use them, but again this will involve some tweaks to the css file for the close image.

Cheers,
Stella
