Hi there,

As i needed very looong html formatted titles, and just din't want to use the href title attribute to hold them (mainly cause it's not that xhtml 1.0 strict), i got a workaround that was perfect for my usage :

Grabbed jquery metadata plugin and got it on the page :

No change made in the fancybox settings :

Then added mysql and php html entities decoded title inserted in the class tag :

I know i could make use of the API call, but i don't find it as customizable as this simple usage that worked like a charm with v2.0 and is just not available when i switch to 2.0.1
With the new version, the actual href title tag is used, no matter what title is defined in fancybox options with metadata as shown above.

Any idea on how getting this back to work ? Or should i stick with 2.0 ?
BTW : including this metadata ability right into fancybox could bring a neat way for users to handle titles and maybe even other options on a per image basis, without having to include html in the title as i've seen suggested on other threads.

Thanks for any help.

Best regards,
Joe.
