Hey ppl-

I am trying to tech myself a little html for my postings. I have my sample page almost complete. The only problem I have left is I want to have a small pic in my listing link to a larger version of it on my server space.

Can someone supply the code and / or a good reference site(s) on how to do this?

In any replies please include anything to remember regarding my own ebay html listing for successful posts.

Thanks!

The HTML Goodies website has a link regarding thumbnails:

The text on your page is all bolded -- not good. Only bold words you want to stand out. I would also get rid of the centering. To itemize stuff use bullets. The photo lacks "definition". And check your spelling.

And I would never buy anything AS IS. Either it works or it doesn't. Laptops are notorious for problems. I would never purchase a secondhand one from an auction site (with no service or warranty) when I can buy a new one with a COMPLETE service package!

Here's a simple approach. In this case you click on the small photo to get to the larger photo.

<a href="http://host.com/big-pic.jpg">
<img SRC="http://host.com/small-pic.jpg" ALT="Click on Image for a Larger up Photo">
</a>

If the user rolss his mouse cursor over the small image the text "Click on Image for a Larger up Photo" will show up.
