Michael -

This is what I've used and it works great for me.

<a href="URL TO PAGE WITH BIG IMAGE.html" onClick="var
w=window.open(this.href, 'gallery',
'toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=400,he
ight=533'); w.focus(); return false;"><img src="THUMBNAIL.jpg" border="0"
/></a>

Then just change the width and height to what you want it to open up to.  If
you have a lot of them, then you might be better off to call a function
where you just pass the urls and dimensions.

I have the "focus();" on this because at one point I had a gallery set up
for someone that opened the larger images in a new pop-up window when they
clicked on the thumbnail.  However, if the person didn't close that window
and clicked on another image to view, then the pop-up got lost and they
became frustrated.  By doing it this way then the pop-up regains focus
whether it was closed or not.

Then on the page with "big image", you can figure out where you want to have
the "Close Window" button.  Then just put <a href="javascript:self.close();"
>Close Window</a>.  You can wrap that in a <div align="right"> tag to put it
to the right side.  Or you can use an image instead.

Others might have a better way to do it, so stay tuned!

HTH,

Todd
