colorbox, show the gallery from arrays link

I have gallery which i want to show in jquery colorbox,

the user clicks on the link and it opens the overlay gallery.the gallery containing 1 or more images. 

<a href="" id="30">
<img border="0" src="/uploads/coverGallery1.png" width="225" height="164" alt="" class="image"/>
</a>

I can only deliver the images from db as array link:

<script>
   var prod_img_30 = Array(       // 30: is the id of the link
            Array('/uploads/image1.png',0),
            Array('/uploads/image2.png',0), 
            Array('/uploads/image1.png',0)
                    );
</script>

I need to integrate the jquery colorbox to my code but till now i couldn't, any idea would be helpfull.

ColorBox only works with elements in the DOM, so you would have to temporarily add links to your document to be able to show these as a gallery. For example:

var $gallery = $('<div>').hide().appendTo('body');
var arr = ['img1.jpg', 'img2.jpg', 'img3.jpg'];

$.each(arr, function(i){
    $('<a href="'+arr[i]+'"></a>').appendTo($gallery);
});

$gallery.find('a').colorbox({rel:'mygroup', open:true});
