Displaying an image in the same window

[carndog]

Hi-
I would like a user to be able to click a thumbnail and have the full size image become viewable in the same window, not a new window.

The HTML code to do this would be

<TD><A HREF="pict0004.jpg"><IMG SRC="tn_pict0004.jpg"> PICT0004.JPG</A></TD>

The above works fine except I cannot center the image unless I create a page for all the photos. This would be very time consuming. Now if I could call a php script and from the <A HREF= > tag I would not have to make all the pages. The function would be photo_page($filename). But I am not sure how to make the call.

Or if I create a page to call the php script lets call it image_dsp.php, I would not be able to pass in the filename. Thus not knowing what file to display. Or can I passing a filename?

Thanks in advance for any help.

you could pass a filename to a php script like
<a href="image_dsp.php?file=tn_pict0004.jpg">tn_pict0004.jpg</a> and have the script display that file.
or you can use iframes to display the picture in the same window.

however, im not sure i fully understood your question.
