javascript pop up

nancy_kelpie · February 17th, 2007, 4:43 PM

I know how to make a pop up window in javascript, but now I want an image pop-up. It should automatically have the size of the image. (it's for a gallery and it's too much work to type in the sizes for every image).

For example like this:
But this one you have to fill in the size yourself...

Does someone know a good code for this? thanks!

You could either use a serverside language (eg: php) to pass the image dimensions or use javascript to determine the image size and resize the window. Either works, but the javascript implementation can act weird in tabbed browsing instances.

hm... I'm really bad with php.
And usability is important for as much browsers as possible.

Maybe I should type the dimensions myself... thanks!

I use a program called Breezebrowser to make galleries. It uses templates to create the html files. It will pass along the width/height of the picture. The templates are pretty easy to modify if you know html. I am not sure if that is helpful or not.

thanks! I don't like templates very much (I know too much about html and css for that), but I will try if I can modify it to make it look the way I want. And else I can maybe steal the javascript code he uses to make the pop-up, lol.

thanks

You can have a look at my photo albums for an example. http://www.markheadrick.com/images/MyPics/mypics.shtml

It uses JavaScript to toss a popup window in the dimension of the image. You just click on the image somewhere on the popup to close.

I use CD2HTML with a modified template to generate the pages.

Perhaps you or someone else will find it helpful.

Actually, why not use Lightbox?

You won't have to worry about new windows for pictures, and it's also very aesthetically pleasing. I use it myself when I want to post thumbnails, but yet still display their full size.

Oooo... I like that lightbox script.

Think I will use that with my albums. Will just need to modify my CD2HTML template.
