Dreamweaver help

[fingerwerks]

I need help with a very basic issue. I am self teaching though,and need a hand. I want a one page 'folio' site. I want dreamweaver text links or possibly sliced image links to open a new image in the same window. I find to do this (with two things apart from each other on the same page) the only option seems to be Show-hide layers. Layers are almost useless though as they move in different browsers. Is there a way to it with slices so the text link will open that pic on the same page in a defined location.

I'm not entirely sure about what you want to do...

They way I see it you want some links, and when you click them the image will load on the same page without being redirected?

Also please take care in giving your posts a subject! I thought (even though I look at all) I was going to be reading a Dreamweaver related question. This is a html and possibly javascript question!

... that I can think of, anyway:

Swap images using javascript.
For this to work, your images have to be the exact same size.
If your images vary in size, or if it's not just images you want to display, use an iframe. Make a separate document for each image / page and display those in the iframe on clicking a link.

Two alternatives that came up while writing the above:

Instead of an iframe, use a frameset; rest of the story as with iframe.
Use server side scripting, obtaining the information from a database, but perhaps that's a little over your head...

Exactly what I was thinking, he'll probably not come back though.

Thank you guys. I'll try some of those options. I'll most likely will try the framesets.

I do want a link to an image on the page without it being redirected. Those things should work, i'll let you know.
