Hello!
One of the benefits of using a lightbox over layers, is that complex interactions can be easier to build and manage as separate lightboxed slides. But you have less control over the appearance of a lightbox than layers.
However, with Javascript it is possible to remove the default 'close' button and to hide the base slide. This makes the lightbox perform a bit more like a layer.
This 'pick one' quiz tracks your actions within the lightbox and provides adaptive feedback. With just two options, you'd be forgiven for thinking it's a 50/50 shot. But if you don't view all of the information in the lightbox, or misinterpret this information, you won't get a pass.

I failed! I'm more an expert on necks right now. :) I'm curious to see how your download works. I like the idea of how a lightbox looks like a "window," but I see why you might want to change it's appearance. And I had to cringe when I saw the x-ray with all the pieces. Ouch.
- Thanks Jodi. The x-ray images are from a brilliant CC0 resource that I stumbled on called radiopaedia.org
If you struggle spotting which x-ray is a knee, not an elbow, there's an additional clue. (Check out the patient's name and DOB on each x-ray.)- Oh great! Thank for telling us about it. I just looked up neck injuries and found a fractured C6-7. I can't wait to tell my doctor I consulted with radiopaedia.org to diagnose myself! :) He'll really hate me now! That's worse than saying "I talked to my neighbor who's an orthopedist and he said..."
