    Question Page Size

    I have a client I'designing a website for which is no real big deal, but have a problem figuring something out. The site has thumb nails in it and have set the hot spot on the thumb nails so when it is clicked on it brings up another page to view the image in a larger size. My question is how do you set the properties of the page containing the the larger image to be a certain size instead of opening in a full screen mode? I am using Dream Weaver 4. Any help would be appreciated.

    Does it use a new page to display the images? Try this

    target="_blank"

    in the code - opens up a smaller size separate window & works on my sites fine.(Like here) If you're not sure where to type in the code, right click on my page, select "view source", then you'll see.

    Hope this helps.

    I use that for my site as well (http://www.techzonline.net/pcpics.html):

    <a target="_blank" title="APC BackUPS 500" href="images/APC_BK500EI.jpg">
    <img border="0" src="images/T_APC_BK500EI.jpg" width="86" height="100"></a></p>
    By specifying the target="_blank",the link opens in a new window.

    Thanks guys for the response, however I do use "target=blank". I looked at your web pages and yours also opens in full screen as well. On this link, click on one of the Firepits and you will see what I mean: http://elp.mckeowninc.com/firepits.html , this is how I would like for the thumb nails to open. Appreciate all the help.

    Yes it is javascript:

    <A HREF='JavaScriptpenPopWin("http://elp.mckeowninc.com/gallery/firepit03.html", 400, 350, "", "cen","cen")'><IMG SRC="http://elp.mckeowninc.com/images/gallery/t_firepit03.jpg" WIDTH=125 HEIGHT=94 BORDER=0></A>

    That's the code from the site you mentioned - try using that but putting your own links in. Sorry - I'm not an expert!!

    There is only 1 way to control the size of the window you open, and that's by using javascript to open the new window. It can't be done with the target attribute.
