Re: [OT] HMTL help

Another update ;-)
I've tried my original code on another pc and it all works fine. So I
have a problem on one of my PCs where I can open a new HTML document
in a new window but can't open an image file directly, either in a new
window, or in the same one as the thumbnail.

Any thoughts,

Thanks,

Tim.
