HTML Help Please..........

[tiga]

Hi,

I have many images that I would like to link to via a thumbnailed hyperlink. The problem I have though is that I would like to use the same base HTML file for all of my enlarged images.

I know how to do this for ASP on an NT Server but now I need to do the same sort of thing in HTML to work on a UNIX server.

At the moment in ASP my hyperlink is as follows:

main_image_template.asp?imagefile=image.jpg

And then in my image file I have this to display the image:

<img src='<%Response.Write Request.QueryString("imagefile")%>'>

All of this works fine in ASP but what do I need to do different or change to make this work in HTML on UNIX.

Thanks Heaps.

Hi,

probably your unix server can do php - failing that you could still use a javascript function that document.write()s the code

How would I go about using the javascript function document.write().

Do I Still use this as my hyperlink:

main_image_template.htm?imagefile=image.jpg

and then use this in my Image File HTML File.

<img src="<document.write(imagefile)>">

I'm not too Flash with Javascript at all.

Hi,

should be similar to
<script>
var n = document.location.indexOf('=');
image = document.location.substr(n);
document.write('<img src="'+image+'">');
</script>

OK...

I now have this as my hyperlink on one page:

main_image_template.htm?imagefile=image.jpg

And then on the Image page I have the following:

<script>
var n = document.location.indexOf('=');
imagefile = document.location.substr(n);
document.write('<img src="'+imagefile+'">');
</script>

But at the moment no image shows up. Have I left something out ?

try something like this,

<script type="text/javascript">
var myImage = new Array();
myImage = location.search.split('=');
document.write('<img src="' + myImage[1] + '" />');
</script>
