Open image in new window ??
Hello,
Okay I want to add a feature to this site i'm working on.
I have been to sites that have thumbnail images. When you follow the hyperlnk of the thumbnail a new browser window opens the exact size of the image. With out any browser functions like the address bar etc. Now I know the Html code to open a new window is target= "blank" But how do I tell it to size the browser and remove the address bar,tools, etc. I know this answer is very simple i just can't seem to figure it out.
Thanks Bill
The world's problem is stupidity. I'm not saying that there should be capitol punishment for being stupid, I just think we should take the warning labels off everything and let nature run it's course.

This is one way, someone else might come up with a better way.
Put this within the head section (without the spaces in Java Script):
<script language="Java Script" type="text/Java Script">
</script>
Then your thumnail images on the page will have a link to the Java Script as:
a href="javascript:;" onclick="MM_openBrWindow('large-image-name.html','images','width=400,height=400')"
Obviously changing the browser window height & width to suit your image

Since these days people are surfing with javascript turned off (stops pop ups) offer a normal link picture or something

Better yet -- code it nicely so those without JavaScript, with alternative browsers, or the Right Clickers can view it easily and it will degrade for pdas and such...

It's good, valid and kind coding for pop ups.
