Open photo in own window - no extra space around photo

[RC]

I want to display photos and when the user clicks on one the photo gets
displayed in its own window. This is what I"m currently using.

<A id="picAnchor" target="_blank" href="../Photos/somePic.jpg"><img
src='../Photos/ etc... </A>

It works great - as expected the photo shows up in a new browser window. The
thing is that I want the photo to show up in its own window - but to have
the new window's size conform to the size of the image (i.e., no extra white
space around the photo). Is there a way to do that without having to "know"
ahead of time the dimensions of the pic?

Thanks!

load a page that references the image. with client script on the "onload()"
event resize the window.

Have a look at this:

http://www.2createawebsite.com/programming/new-window.html

This gives you the settings that allow you to set the size of a new
browser window and load its contents.

Also take a look at:

This will help you with turning of the toolbars and status bar if you want.

Have A Better One!
