Hi All -

I am currently using a Javascript for a pop up window that enlarges a thumbnail picture.

I wish the POP UP window image to be LINKABLE - that is on mouseover of IT, goto a new window URL -

Any help would be extremely appreciated!!!

My Current URL for this project is: www.webdesign.johnrandazzo.net/portfolio.htm (then mouseover one of the designs to pop up the window in question)


CURRENT JAVASCRIPT CODE:

<!-- Begin POP-UP SIZES AND OPTIONS CODE
var close_button 	= "yes"		// GALLERY CLOSE BUTTON ON/OFF
var slideshow_button 	= "yes"		// SLIDESHOW BUTTON yes/no
var viewer		 = "no"		// yes/FULL SCREEN OR no/POPUP MODE



var view_width 		= 675		// GALLERY POPUP WIDTH
var view_height 	= 450		// GALLERY POPUP HEIGHT
var slideshow_width 	= 675		// SLIDESHOW POPUP WINDOW WIDTH
var slideshow_height 	= 450		// SLIDESHOW POPUP WINDOW HEIGHT



var border_color	= "000000"	// PICTURE OUTLINE COLOR
var scrollbarS 		= "no"		// TURN ON POPUP SCROLLBARS
var right_click_on	= "yes"		// RIGHT CLICK PROTECTION ON
var right_click_text	= "Copyright, 2006 John M. Randazzo"	// TEXT FOR THE RIGHT CLICK PROTECTION








// START POPUP CODE




function popUp(URL) {
   if (viewer == "no") {
var look='toolbar=0,scrollbars='+scrollbarS+',location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,width='+view_width+',height='+view_height+','
popwin=window.open("","",look)
}
else

}

I haven't read all of your code. I'd suggest simply wrapping the image in a standard hyperlink.

Either wrap the image in an anchor as Thomas said which will work for a click, or if you want it on mouse over as you say in your post you need to add a bit of javascript on mouseover for the image to open the new link. Personally i dont open links until they are clicked, as it would annoy the users to have thousands of windows open everytime they hovered over something
