I am trying to open a small window inside an already open window. I have some thumbnail images on a page. When you click on an small image, I would like to have a small window open with a larger image and some descriptive text. I know ... <a href="largeimage.html" target=_blank> will open a new window but how do you size the new smaller window?

I also do not want the smaller window to have a tool bar, scrollbars, menus, etc. Just a simple plain window with the larger image and some text. How is this done?

Thanks for your help

I am not sure if this is what you might be looking for. But it is an earlier thread on somewhat the same subject.

Check out the various options here:

New window/tab will open differently depending on browser and version.

Be very careful, you are entering very dangerous waters. What you want to do is fairly easy it is also why every browser has pop-up blockers. It is another function that has been co-opted by the "bad-guys". Doing this could get your site black-listed as potentially dangerous.

But since you wanted it you've got it.

You could also try something like http://visuallightbox.com if that's what you are talking about is a zoomed in larger image that could have a caption. I'm not sure if it does captions, but I would think so, haven't tried that lol.
