Thankfully I haven't deleted the code I set up for Lisa.
This is the important bit
<p align="center">
<a href='' target="_self"
onmouseover="spawnJimcoPopup
( 'http://www.gocafeconcepts.com/mascotmolds/mold1b.jpg', '_blank',
'toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no, scrollbars=no,resizable=no'
, 300, 375, 'center', '0', 'pixel') ;return false;">
<img border="0" src="mascotmolds/mold1a.jpg" width="200" height="155">
</a></p>
As you can see it uses spawnJimcoPopup invoked by "onmouseover=" When I
tested it just now, it opens a smaller window (300*375). If this window is
changed to a smaller size, the image is smaller, but if it is made larger
than the image, there is white space around the image.
I have pop-up blocker turned on in IE7 and the window does still open But
this code also works with "onclick=" so if the problem is that pop-up
blockers block "onmouseover=", using onclick=" should resolve the problem
