Thaks Rodney,

A quick update. If I write this:
<A HREF="big/pic1.htm" target="_blank"><IMG
SRC="p5280001.jpg"
ALT="image1" STYLE="BORDER-STYLE:NONE"></A>

i.e. call another page containing just the IMG SRC line, instead of
the calling the jpg file directly with HREF then it works just fine
(although the image is bigger than the browser window)

So I seem to have a problem with the <A
HREF="big/p5280001.jpg">...
part of my original code, although, as you said, it's pretty much the
same as some on your site (I just checked :-)  )

It's somewhat reassuring to know it doesn't appear as if I've made a
Noddy mistake, but still frustrating that it's not working.

Thanks though :-)

Tim.
