Second, you used Javascript to, apparently, call a Windows function. That • means
it doesn't do anything on my Unix machine at work or my Linux and Mac • machines
at home.

Please link your thumbnails directly to the jpg's. If you must use • Javascript
to put the larger image in it's own window, there's a function you can use • to
open it in a new browser window that is platform-independent. I believe it
looks something like this...

javascript:window.open('url', 'name', 'width=640,height=400')

If you looked at the source code for his page, he is using this function.
Bram's winload() function is not a platform specific call. It is a wrapper
function for the window.open call.

(...) A few suggestions: First, Javascript isn't necessary to load images, operate buttons or pretty much anything else. Some people surf with it turned off to avoid pop-up advertisements. Javascript is a tool for advertisers and little else. (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.town)
