Click thumbnail, go to dynamicaly generated page with image

MonicaX · Jun 24, 2004

I'd like to click on a thumbnail and instead of linking to the JPEG and just getting the image in an otherwise blank page, I'd like to have a background image and a back button or whatever. I could create a seperate page for each large image with those elements but that would get mighty cumbersome.

Is there a way to create just one HTML page, sort of a template that could be used to display all the large jpegs, to some how link an image with a standard "palceholder page?"

I's like to do it without a database or serverside technology - javascript perhaps?

Hope this make sense.

Thanks Monica

I dont think this is posible without some sort of server scripting. Unless you have all of the images preloaded in the page and only show the correct one dependant on a passed variable. This would make the page very large, depending on your images, and slow to load.

aha,
i didnt read the query right, my mistake.

i think javascript can be used like this:

Code:

<html>
<body background="TheImage">
<script>
TheLink=location.href.split("=")
TheImage=TheLink[1]
document.write "<img src='"+TheLink1+"'>"
</script>
</body>
</html>

ur popucode must be:
Popup.html?imgpath=Path

try it...
