ByteView, the world Smallest Javascript Lightview

ByteView, Lightwindow, Simple Javascript, Lightview ...

Byteview is the worlds smallest javascript based lightbox/lightview with fade/transition effects and the ability to load external html components via ajax.

I created ByteView as I was unhappy with the size and complexity of many of the pre-existing lightview solutions on the net and I knew it should be possible to create a much smaller effective solution.

Based around the SimpleJS javascript Library, Byteview stretches the capability of this ultra compact effects librarary by adding less than 1KB of CSS code to create a superlightweight lighview capable of loading external content via Ajax.
Also the SimpleJS effects library can provide most of the basic javascript effects you need for your website in only a few KB

Plus as well as being fast loading the links for loading the external content are search engine friendly and the html components will be loaded normally even if javascript is turned off.

Opera 10 with Unite Webserver

Well its official, Opera is the best browser on the planet. Nevermind the fact that Opera 10 kicks Chromes ass when it comes to speed and Firefoxes ass when it comes to features, the new Unite server option makes this browser more powerful than any other browser on the planet.
Why, because of the built in webserver and file sharing utilities.
