Lightcase is a beautiful, flexible and even accessible web application to present the most of common media formats in an exposed Lightbox. This Lightbox Plugin is based on the jQuery Framework and works fine in all common browsers like Internet Explorer 7+, Firefox, Opera, Webkit and more.
Why using Lightcase?
Nice features.
Lightcase includes a lot of different animation types to popup medias and is easy to configure speed, size or whether Lightcase should use several links as series, and so on.

Autodetect media formats.
Lightcase is smart and genious. You don’t have to define which format your media has. So the embed area for your linked media would be created automatically.

Responsive dimensions.
Don’t take care about width or height of the expanding box. A sophisticated function calculates the dimensions from the provided browser size.
