The Widgetkit Spotlight allows you to add an overlay to your images which fades or moves in on mouse hover. The overlay can be an image or HTML content. The default magnifier spotlight is a perfect match to be used with a lightbox.

• 5 different animation modes
• Build on the latest jQuery version

Examples

If no custom overlay is set the default spotlight fades in an overlay with an magnifier image. If you define a custom overlay you can choose between different animations - fade, bottom, top, right and left.

Custom Overlay (Bottom)

Custom Overlay (Right)

Custom Overlay (Top)

Custom Overlay (Left)

How to use

Use the HTML5 custom data attribute data-spotlight to activate the spotlight.

<a data-spotlight="on" href="/mypage.html">
  <img src="/image.jpg" width="180" height="120" alt="" />
</a>

To create a custom overlay use a div element with the CSS class overlay. You can set the effect parameter to the data attribute. For example:

<a data-spotlight="effect:bottom;" href="/mypage.html">
  <img src="/image.jpg" width="180" height="120" alt="" />
  <span class="overlay">Custom Overlay</span>
</a>

You can set the effect parameter to fade, bottom, top, right and left.
