close( )

Closes a lightbox.

The close() method closes a lightbox and allows you to pass data from the lightbox to the page that opened the lightbox. If a lightbox is closed through the 'X' icon, close button, or lightbox overlay, data will not be returned to the original page.

To ensure data can be passed:

1. Call this method to close a lightbox programmatically. For example, add a button with an onClick event handler that calls close().
2. Disable these closing options in the lightbox's settings under Set Triggers.
