This is, how i understood the code.
But if you look at the webpage itself, it is clear, that this is not what realy happens!

The images loads, the window gets resize and THEN, a *larger* window frame pops up for the fragment of a second.

This is the things that annoys me ....

Thanx, i will have a look at that!

Could you provide a short example of this?
I can only "modify" such code, not realy create it, sadly ...

What would be needed in those lines:

<td>9:<a href="javascript:;" onclick="enlarge(8,'400/2','760/2')"><img src="400/2/DSC_7398.jpg" alt="DSC_7398.jpg" border="no"></a></td>

Just using a HREF to the larger image?

<td>9:<a href="760/2/DSC_7398.jpg"><img src="400/2/DSC_7398.jpg" alt="DSC_7398.jpg" border="no"></a></td>

But then, how to change that with JavaScript?

Any hint would be appreciated :)

I especially like the popup-window - it also works fine with a second monitor, which i constantly use.
