Any body know how to make a lightbox popover form that displays only 1 time?

At least for a pre-set amount of time like displays once for 30 days or some such? I know it will likely have to do with a cookie or some such, but if anybody has it figured - that would be awesome.

It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Will something like that work with the automatic lightbox popover?

Could you clarify what you meant by change the link to the lightbox class?

I don't use Lightbox but I do use Colorbox and they both work the same way and the link has a class="classnamehere" assigned to inside the link to determine how it works. I think Lightbox is this.
class="lightbox"
