Title for an image popup

So all you advanced scripters, I'm in need of some help.

I have this page with some JavaScript that opens up an image in a window when a thumbnail is clicked. How do I get the title to show up as something coherent instead of the file path?

Example: http://www.cynthiawhalen.com/test/prices.php

Thanks!

(p.s. I'm such a newbie to JS. Thanks for your help.)

Hmm... not exactly newbie-friendly, but thanks.

You just put the working code (my modification - post#2 or Skyzyx's - post#13) inside a <script> tag in the <head>. Then in your thumbnails, call the script like this:

<a href="images/big1.jpg" onclick="popImg(this.href); return false;"><img src="images/thumb1.jpg" /></a>

<a href="images/big2.jpg" onclick="popImg(this.href); return false;"><img src="images/thumb2.jpg" /></a>
