[support] Which module would create jQuery splash page?

[Steve Power]

Advanced front page will do the necessary regarding the front page (from
various places as well i think), and for the jquery, i guess you could maybe
bind a lightbox to onload? (im guessing, never done it dont know if its
possible.)
