I have a set of thumbnails on a page (I have saved the thumbnails as separate files). I would like an enlarged picture to display (which I also have available) on the same web page as you click each thumbnail, changing the previous picture to the new enlarged one corresponding to the thumbnail clicked.

It's a portfolio that I'm trying to display, and I would like to have the user quickly zip through the portfolio without having to close a new window, hit the back back key, etc. All images would be displayed on the same web page. Can someone help

Thank you!
 
I'm aware of the photo gallery feature and it's not entirely flexible. I'd like to build my own photo gallery...
 
Display them in an Iframe on the same page and set the Target frame to the iframe.

Steve, I can't tell you how much time I've spent trying to figure this out... and how much time you've saved me. THANKS

if you know javascript, use this code - it presents your thumbnails around the
edge of the large image, and the large image changes onclick of the little
images.

sorry, I don't havea working example at the moment.

this code was from http://myplace.50g.com if your're interested the product to
download free is "Javascript Vault" - and has lots of other useful scripts.

Just change your images for those examples below, to the same dimensions, and it
should work OK.
