I have clicking on an image giving a larger image, but I want
to also put a (different) caption under the larger picture.
(Photo by xxxx).

Since this will grow to hundreds, if not thousands, of images, I don't
want to code a new html file for every photo.

How can I get a caption on the larger version with html contained
in the single html file above?

Thanks!

Thanks to all who replied! I now have a version out there that does
what I want it to do,
but I had to resort to another html file per image. Oh well.

As for thumbnails, my original intent, and current as well, is to
present a copy of the
images large enough to view, and only those really interested in
seeing greater detail
would bother to look at the larger one. And I didn't want to make two
copies of each
image, I wanted to control the size with image tags to save that
effort.

Maybe as the project grows, I'll consider doing thumbnails.

A question though. Is the entire image loaded or just sampled when one
uses
scaling, or height and width? Since I've seen pages that use the same
image for
small and large versions, I thought the browser software might be
"smart"
about loading it. I expect my project will have large numbers of
directories with small
numbers of pictures. If that changes, I may decide to produce actual
thumbnail
jpg files. In any case, with two pictures, this project is in its
earliest stages.

Thanks!
