what is this effect called?

hi there,

i've been seeing this effect more lately and i was wondering what it's called so that i can try to learn how to do it. it's the screen that pops up without a browser window and it sort of fades in nicely. is that javascript? anyway, any info or links to tutorials are appreciated! here's an example of what i am talking about, when you click on one of the thumbnail images:
Kari and Company: Website Design, Flash Elements, Logo and Graphic Editing and Design, Website Maintenance and Administrative Support

thanks!

If you want to create funky effects using Javascript, I'd suggest you also look into mootools or script.aculo.us.

Lightbox, Slimbox and other clones use these pre-built freely available javascript libraries to handle most of the work.

Works for me. I found this in the tutorials.

"One of the most important oppositions that tend [sic] to define the origin and impact of a piece of art is the author's pursuit of self-expression versus the limitations imposed by the accepted canon."

I very slowly worked out what that means and now I would like to know some other important oppositions, assuming opposition is the same as contrast.
