Help needed

I am using an anchor tag to open another html file, which displays a JPEG
image in a table layout. Can I pass the JPEG image to be displayed with the
anchor tag? Rather than make lots of almost identical html files for each
image.

Hi Brucie,
Many thanks for your help, but have so far been unable to deploy the code to
a new html file (the example in your link displays in the same page, not a
new document) any further advice would be much appreciated.

its supposed to display the "same file". it saves having multiple
files when the only thing changing is the image. you did say "Rather
than make lots of almost identical html files for each image." if you
need other things to change as well as the image that can be dome as
well. how about a URI to what you're trying to do?

any further advice would be much appreciated.

heres a more advanced one i did for someone in another thread. its
still only "one file" just the image and the css it uses changes.

its much more efficient than having in this case 85 sperate pages to
do the same thing (1 main page for each style (5 pages) and 16 sperate
pages for each image with each style (80 pages)).

"Can I pass the JPEG image to be displayed with the anchor tag?"

yes. thats exactly what my examples show except the links are to the
same page rather than a different one and instead of using the image
name i've used numbers because its easier. it doesn't matter if the
link is to the same page or not just as long as the variable you pass
to whatever the page may be has been told what to do with it.
