The case is as follows:
I use the Lightbox Modal for a gallery of images, in the index I have the thumbs and clicking opens the modal with the maximized image.
Due to the amount of images it takes too long to load them all.
How can I call an html file containing the images into the modal of the index? So I would not load those images when loading the index.
function openModal() {
document.getElementById('myModal').style.display = "block";
}
function closeModal() {
document.getElementById('myModal').style.display = "none";
}
var slideIndex = 1;
showSlides(slideIndex);
function plusSlides(n) {
showSlides(slideIndex += n);
}
function currentSlide(n) {
showSlides(slideIndex = n);
}
function showSlides(n) {
var i;
var slides = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides");
var dots = document.getElementsByClassName("demo");
var captionText = document.getElementById("caption");
if (n > slides.length) {slideIndex = 1}
if (n < 1) {slideIndex = slides.length}
for (i = 0; i < slides.length; i++) {
slides[i].style.display = "none";
}
for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) {
dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" active", "");
}
slides[slideIndex-1].style.display = "block";
dots[slideIndex-1].className += " active";
captionText.innerHTML = dots[slideIndex-1].alt;
}
