jQuery Forum

I working on trying to get my condense my code in jquery I have a small chunk of code that is being reused over and over inside of a function, I would like to turn this:

1. $(document).ready(function () {
       $("a.transitionWhite000").fancybox({
2.         'overlayColor': '#FFF',
           'overlayShow': true,
           'transitionIn': 'fade',
           'speedIn': 1300,
           'transitionOut': 'fade',
           'speedOut': 600,
           'overlayOpacity': 0.970,
       });
3.   $("a.transitionBlack000").fancybox({
4.         'overlayColor': '#000',
           'overlayShow': true,
           'transitionIn': 'fade',
           'speedIn': 1300,
           'transitionOut': 'fade',
           'speedOut': 600,
           'overlayOpacity': 0.970,
       });
5. });

Into this:

1. var masterSettings000 = 'overlayShow':true,'transitionIn':'fade','speedIn':1300,'transitionOut':'fade','speedOut':600,'overlayOpacity':0.970,
   
2. $(document).ready(function () {
       $("a.transitionWhite000").fancybox({
       'overlayColor': '#FFF'
       masterSettings000,
       });
3. $(document).ready(function () {
       $("a.transitionBlack000").fancybox({
       'overlayColor': '#000'
       masterSettings000,
       });
4. });
   

so far when I try to plug in my 'masterSetting000' var it makes the whole code break, I'm really quite new to all this web development so I guess my first question is, is what I'm trying to accomplish even possible here?
And then secondly how would I execute it?

Thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer.
