                    @user1575229, try reading the accepted answer on the linked duplicate. It explains it very nicely. – Paul Tomblin Sep 18 '12 at 20:03

        $.fn is the prototype used to jQuery objects created from $("..."). SO by calling .fn you are extending the defaults.
$ is the jQuery factory and namespace.
For Fancybox 2.0, the ".fn" is dropped.

                    in fancybox there are two methods $.fn.fancybox and $.fancybox. I can guess about the first one but what does the second one say now? please elaborate this don't get it. – azam Sep 18 '12 at 21:30
