    3. Hi Don. My website is the same. However, I know some people are accessing my website as my search program reports various searches that have been made. So I am confused but happy to wait until things are sorted and back to normal.

    1. [FreeHelp]Re: Confused about img enlarge-reduce code
    2. Pat Asher
    3. Judy, I'm obviously not Barry, but the values in the code example you gave represent an enlargement of the displayed image of 62.22% on mouseover. So yes, you do have to use the actual width and height values to first display the image at its actual size, then apply whatever percentage by which you want to enlarge the image on mouseover to the values in onmouseover="this.style.width='px'; this.style.height='px';" For example, if the original image is 250 by 350px, and you want to enlarge it by 50% on mouseover, you would use width="250px" height="350px" and onmouseover="this.style.width='375px'; this.style.height='525px'; Pat A.

    2. JFlorian
    3. Barry, I'm working on my RW county site again. Long ago you gave me this code for large images: <p><img class="center" src="maps/bus/g-g-c-co_route.gif" title="name" ALT="describe" id="bigImage" width="450px" height="483px" border="0" onmouseout="this.style.width='';this.style.height='';" onmouseover="this.style.width='730px';this.style.height='784px';"> The RW county site had hundreds of images. I'm unsure where to begin to convert the images to the code above. It's been years since I did the bus picture, above, so I don't recall how to do it for each picture. For example, am I supposed to first open every image and get the width and height? Should I put those values in the file name? On the style width & height, do those remain as 730 and 748? If not, what method helps to know the values of each so I can put it in the code? I'm afraid I'm all turned around on this img code to enlarge and reduce images. Judy
