PHP and HTML (href and new page)

[kansaschuck]

I'm using PHP to create a dynamic window.

From a thumbnail pic I want to click and go to the full sized image.

No problem getting a new window: HREF with an IMG src and I've got it. But I'd really like this new page to be more complex.

With php I'd like to add current time and some other text extracted from a text file, labels, html tables to control the pic and text. I want the flexiblity of php to control this new window.

I've seen javascript attempts but I'd really rather just use standard html and when I click on the thumbnail and new window opens (with full html code).

any suggestions on direction?

PHP can't control how a new window will open. Html can only specify "_blank" as the target to open in a new window.

Javascript is the only way to modify how a window will act; however, PHP can generate dynamic content to fill that space. As long as you specify the php file to execute in the href.
