Spawn problems

[Guest]

Hello,
I downloaded Spawn yesterday as I have lots of hyperlinked thumbnails to the
larger size photos and I just want these photos to pop up in a window to fit
their size. However I cannot make it work.
My procedure in FRontpage 2003 :
I right click on the thumbnail to hyperlink.
I hyperlink it using Fp 2003 - screen tip target frame - new page
I then save
I then right click the hyperlink and click on Jimco addins
I fill in the url as being the same page on which the photo is (it is a new
page with only the photo on) - I name the page using no spaces etc - it is
the same page as the hyperlink previously selected. (and the normal hyperlink
works) - I choose the size and position and then click OK
When I try to check it in design view I get an error message saying the Url
is wrong
when I try it in preview I still get the error message but a window does
appear to the dimensions specified - but an empty window .
How can I put this right?
regards,
Jacquie

The only hyperlink to page with the large image, should be the one inserted via Spawn.

T add to the to question - in design I can't get the new window to open - in
previe the new window opens at the right size but says the url can't be found
- is that normal?
It says ther is an sriping error - still line 77 character 4
the code on lines 75,76,and 77 is:

windowOptions = options + ',width=' + w + ',height=' + h + ',left=' + x +
',top=' + y;
newWindow = window.open(url, name, windowOptions);
newWindow.focus();

whereas the code for th actual thumbnail is:

<img border="0" src="ApreSki/000071ridotta.jpg" width="200" height="120"
onclick="spawnJimcoPopup('ApreSki/bagni_vecchi_bomio_caves.htm','Bagnivecchicaves','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes','250','400','center','center','pixel');return false;">


Please help,
regards,

Yes, but then you are just loading the image into a blank browser windows, you have no control over
the window size, etc.

Not only that, but the image will appear in the upper left corner of the
browser window, giving a very unprofessional appearance.
