here's what I use... put this in your head:

<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- hide from JavaScript-challenged browsers
function openWindow(url) {
popupWin = window.open(url,'new_page','width=350,height=250,resizable=no,scrollbars=yes')
}
// done hiding -->
</script>


you can edit the width, height, resizable, scrollbars, etc however you want..

then with your img link:

<a href="JavaScript:openWindow('urlofpageyouwanttoopen.html')"><img src="imgname.jpg" border="0"></a>

that should do it

If you are just looking to have a Dialog box with a message to pop up when your button is clicked, easy enough. Here's a page with a few different options.
