Hi jQuerians,
I just committed what I would call Thickbox Reloaded alpha version. It
may look the same pretty much, but is a complete rewrite.
Here's what's new:
* Chainable method to bind Thickbox to links and forms (makes it easy
for content that gets loaded/created later on).
* Totally unobtrusive: no classes needed for links, no params in URL.
* Confirm type Thickbox, triggered automatically by binding Thickbox to
a form. If "yes" the form gets submitted unless a custom callback is
defined (for example for Ajax submitting)
* Automatic type detection depending on type of element, respectively on
type of link:
image: href is an image
content: href is a hash
ajax: href is internal and not image
iframe: href is external and not image
confirm: element is form
* Improved UI blocking (Thanks to Mike "Malsup" and the BlockUI plugin)
* Options for width/height are now passed in as settings object literal
or are stored as default values via $.thickbox.defaults({ width: 300,
height: 400 })
* Options top/left positioning (instead of centering), unit defaults to 'px'
* Easier skinning: The look is completely separated into an extra style
sheet
* Scrolling via mousewheel/touchpad is blocked
* Lets you define custom animations for showing the modal window via
settings
* Requires jQuery 1.1.1
Maybe I have forgotten something.
I thought of including the required style sheets dynamically, but you
would still have to include the path somehow.
You can also have a look here (besides repository):

Please note that I haven't tested in other browsers than Firefox yet. I
just thought I'd like to request some feedback/code review first!
