I've got a group of images on my site that i would like to popup once clicked. Im using Dreamweaver MX but don't know how to do this.

I've tried using some Javascripts but the code is wrong everytime i enter it into the <body> of my page.

Any useful advice/help on the above would be greatful.

Thanks in advance.

Do you mean 'popup' as in 'popup window'?

Create a new HTML page with each picture on.
<a href="javascript:window.open('page.html')">Popup picture</a>

Yes i meant popup window.

How would i be able to alter that script to open the popup window to the exact dimensions of the picture as opposed to a whole new page?

Thanks again.

<a href="javascript:window.open('page.html','','width=#; height=#')">Open window</a>

This should work!! I can never be sure...........

(Replace # with the width in pixels)

Slight problem has occured.
As i click to open the popup window im left with a blank page with [object] written on the blank page.

How can i avoid this?

Damn, I came up with that [object] thing a while ago....... not sure. If it was working originally, you must have changed something that messed it up. Not sure what though!

<a href="java script:window.open('page.html','','width=#; height=#')">Open window</a>

All i changed was the gap between "java script" & added the sizes in pixels.

I must have not noticed the [object] with the blank page at the start.

Is there any other method for popup window as opposed to Javascript?...bearing in mind im using Dreamweaver MX.

Thanks
