I do not know what it is called, so please bear with me. I have a picture that I want to click on that picture and create a larger picture within a box, while still on the page. I don't know if this is a pop-up box, I know it's not a rollover.....I want the new box to stay on the page and be able to accept customer info......help me please....thank you!:(:-(

I would like a new window to pop up.....its smaller than the screen page.....it does have the _ Underline button and the x button in the top right corner, so one would be able to min. or exit it. It's different than the roll over as I want it to stay there until one of those are clicked on............:-?

This is done using LYTEBOX, and has been heavily discussed here before.

OK, I know what you mean but I don't know how to do that either. i find a lot of coding info here

These guys are pretty smart and helpful - I did a search for pop up and there are several posts there.

Not sure which effect you want ? The effect where picture enlarges with mouseover is - just takes a little work. The effects on the html coding forum are all possible but takes a lot of trial and errror. I actually have been trying and kinda gave up. I would just make a link to a page with a form on it, while a pop-up would be a neat effect, I'm not sure it's worth the effort.
