I know very little about php and nothing about javascript, so I would like to stick with php.... my question is about my image gallery, I have everything functioning perfectly but I wish to have the images open in a new window when they are clicked. I would like the new window to be without a navigation and address bar.

above is the script used to show my images from the images folder, its a little bit messy... I would like to know what changes i need to make in order to get the results i desire, but let me know if this is not the file i have to make changes to.

thank you!!!

    First off, read formatting syntax

    Secondly, use &#91;php&#93; code here... &#91;/php&#93; for php code. Use html tags for html code and code tags for other code instead of the php tags.

    That said, looking at your code for more than 5 seconds make my head hurt, and so I didn't. While I have a suggestion, I can't really say for sure I found the issue in that little time...

    <a href="<?php echo htmlspecialchars(getImageLinkURL());?>" title="<?php echo getBareImageTitle();?>">
	<?php printImageThumb(getAnnotatedImageTitle()); ?>
</a>

    You will make links open in a new window if you insert target="blank" in the opening a tag

    <a href="<?php echo htmlspecialchars(getImageLinkURL());?>" title="<?php echo getBareImageTitle();?>" target="_blank">

    However, these will still have address bar etc and you can't do anything about that. To have a small chance of achieving that, you'd need to use the javascript function window.open
    Still, nowdays you can't expect browsers to respect you not wanting an address bar or status bar.
