I heard that there was a php code for this, i am doing this all manually in dreamweaver. when you click on an image, it opens it within a new window, that is size to the picture and has nothing but the picture. Do you know where i can find this php code at or what its called? Thx!!:)

That's a javascript, there is no php code that can pop open a window. Search on google for javascript pop-up scripts.

Actually there is a php script that can popup windows.
Its called PHP No Margin Image Pop up - it will read the image width and height on its own and create a popup that fits it perfectly.

Sorry i didnt give you the name earlier...I must of been typing in my sleep ;)

Edit: I must be still sleeping - its a php script but it interfaces with javascript I think

The Macromedia Exchange had an extention named 'Just So Picture Window' that will do the job for you perfectly, since you say you're using Dreamweaver. It's javascript but is very good unless you specifically need PHP

doesnt matter if its java or php, just want it to do it for me...doing over 100+ pics...gets tiring....how do i install the code though? thx!

I made something like this using Perl, it was pretty easy. If you want to use PHP, you are going to need to use JS, but it isn't that hard. Just create some file like "image.php?url=" and have the url be the image. Then use the common JS code to do this.

For the pop-up window, just use normal pop-up window code, but have the file it goes to be the "image.php" and have the image phrased in the url. I did do this on one of my websites, but people said that the images were too big for their screen occasionally. Which is why I just have the images displayed on their own pages.. see here: http://www.gbprops.com/props_index.php/1 Click on any image, and it will go in its page. You can do this by just having the picture in the url, and not have any resizing or pop-up windows.

I also customized my page by following the image file names pattern, and being able to go to the next and previous images. Pretty cool actually.

Hope this helps!

Well if you've downloaded the extension manager (for dreamweaver 3) then that will do it for you. Dreamweaver 4 installs with the manager already. You download the extension from the macromedia site to a folder somewhere, open the manager and install it. Restart Dreamweaver and the Justso Picture window will appear under the behaviours menu. Select the image, then select JustSo from the drop down menu in the behaviours window. That'll open the dialogue box which you fill in with the large image, page background color, and where it's full screen - or in your case - 'hug image'. Done. Repeat for them all and you'll be laughing - cuts a *lot* of time down from making all those seperate pop-up windows.
