Description

Would it be possible to view captions below images in the gallery? I know the lightbox syntax for this is "lightbox[gallery][my caption]". Could you maybe take the Description or Body text for each node and place that into the [my caption] field automatically?

Thanks very much, if you could let me know if this is possible I would really appreciate it!

Here's an example of what the captions I have in mind might look like (attached).

The image field in cck has a field "title" where I think it would be best to grab the caption. It would then be displayed with the image using the title attribute which is read by lightbox. I will be working on getting this added in the next release.

This feature has been added to 6.x-1.3. Make sure you have your content type image field set to display the title field for the image. This field is then added to the image tag and displayed in lightbox.
