hi, can anyone post a complete example of how to create a clickable thumbnail image which will open a popup window? I browsed the forum archives, but I was unable to make the few examples work.

I browsed the standard design directory, and I saw that there are some popup and fullscreen templates, but it seems they are legacies of older versions. Presently, the only way I can think of, is to put a switch statement into base_layout.tpl and pass a "popup" parameter to it, but I think it's the ugliest solution.

Any ideas?

bye

We have this code in the full view template for our picture/image class.

This open the image full size (we point directly to the actual file) in a "blank" window. Use javascript openwindow if you want to set the popup window size.

good luck

{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.picture image_class=imagelarge}
</a>

Hi Olivier,

I tried your solution and indeed works. But -- how is it possible to use a popup template which will contain the original image? (e.g. a fixed logo, and a close link too maybe ...).
any ideas?
