Sherri, Thanks...this makes more sense to me than anything, especially since I am a novice when it comes to writing and understanding code. I can make my images smaller for those who have dial-up connections and then if they want to click on the text below each image to make it larger, they can....at least this code works for me. I could never get the others to work...not that it was their fault because I am SURE I was doing something wrong. Thanks!!! >Today's Topics: > > 1. Re: Image code (Sherri ) > 2.

Here's a technique <http://randsco.com/_miscPgs/cssZoom03.html> that doesn't use JavaScript -- my chief objection to the method you posted. I haven't tried it myself, so cannot comment on how it plays in various venues, except to say that in browsers that do not support CSS (which it uses), the larger photo is displayed without trickery beside the smaller one. Perhaps this could be modified as a link to another page with the larger picture. -R. Marcia Cox wrote: in part > Can anyone help me with images?

In order for the larger image to be seen it means that the smaller image must contain enough pixels so that it looks good when enlarged. This means that the file size is based on the larger image size, and necessarily longer download time. If there are many images placed on the same page, it will then take a longer time to download for the user just to see all of the small images to select which one for viewing. The suggested method for a page author to use would be the construction of small files for a thumbnail image file, and then a link or mouseover function which takes you to the larger (more dense) image file for good viewing. Simply expanding the onscreen size means either larger downloads, or diminished quality. Using this method the larger file is only downloaded if the viewer actually wants to see a specific one. Remember the legacy users. Not everyone in the genealogy hobby is using the latest gear or high speed connection. Jeff Owens

Marcia, I do it differently - I actually have 2 of each image, one that is the full size that you want to appear, and one that is smaller. The smaller one is what I code on the page to actually "show" and the other is linked so that if you click on the image showing on the page, it will open the larger one. Here's an example of the code: <p align="center"><a href="graphics/juliaanddavisdavis.jpg"><img src="graphics/juliaanddavisdavis-sm.jpg"></a></p> Sherri -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marcia Cox Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 10:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ROOTSWEB-HELP] Image code Can anyone help me with images?

Thank you Judy. I just emailed my KY bosses for the Archives just incase I had the wrong password and info. Now I know it's not me (for a change). Thanks.... Dana

Linda, It is not you/your program. I also cannot ftp as of 5 minutes ago (2nd day). Note on HelpDesk still says there's a problem.

Great! That means I'm having problems now with my ftp program. I just reinstalled it to make sure, but I'm beginning to wonder now what's going on.

Mine were loading fine all day until just now. I can't get it to log on at all. Hopefully it won't be a long wait for them to get things straightened out. Dana

I do not know what is going on, but I also querried for my passwords, and the only password I got back was for my freepages site, none of my accounts for USGenWeb pages came back. Lee
