Very simple , basic and boring. There are certain elements of a select box that we can style such as the font, border, color, padding and background color:

I use tynt tools for my other blogs which add a copyright text and post link into all text visitors copy from my blog and i thought that there would be some trick to do this without using tynt. While searching it on Google i found one post about it on Bavotasan , which i'am going to share with you guys.
It's easy and you can do this in your html documents/blogger/wordpress and every single thing which supports HTML and JavaScript. One more thing that this script doesn't support IE so i suggest you to download Google Chrome.
Below is the script
<script type="text/javascript">
function addLink() { var body_element = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]; var selection; selection = window.getSelection(); var pagelink = "<br /><br /> Read more at: <a href='"+document.location.href+"'>"+document.location.href+"</a><br />Copyright © Widget Craft"; // change this if you want var copytext = selection + pagelink; var newdiv = document.createElement('div'); newdiv.style.position='absolute'; newdiv.style.left='-99999px'; body_element.appendChild(newdiv); newdiv.innerHTML = copytext; selection.selectAllChildren(newdiv); window.setTimeout(function() { body_element.removeChild(newdiv); },0);
}
document.oncopy = addLink;
</script>
That's.....If you're copying content from any site please respect their copyrights.

Creating your own Lightbox is not that hard maybe it'll not be that advanced my it could be like above image and today in this article i'am gonna teach you about it. Full tutorial is jQuery and CSS3 based and creating a simple lightbox is not that hard.
In above CSS #Lightbox is our lightbox background , #Lightbox-panel is our lightbox and #Close-panel is our lightbox close button.
Z-index of #lightbox-panel should be more than #lightbox otherwise your lightbox will appear under background.Now time to add JavaScript which will give you control to open or close lightbox :
In javascript there are the snippets first one opens the lightbox , second one closes it when you on close button and third button closes it when you click outside/background of lightbox and we're almost done with this just have to add HTML now :
So <a id="show-panel" href="#">Show Panel</a> is button which will open the lightbox and <div id="lightbox-panel">...All Crap.. </div> is our lightbox and we have to add our content in it , <a id="close-panel".........</a> is our close button and in last <div id="lightbox"> </div> is our lightbox background.
