thanson: I have to say that from a usability standpoint, I completely agree with compmodder26. I understand that you told your client you could do it the other way, but a good designer/developer knows when to change their plan after realizing that they hadn't considered the full picture. Pretend that you are a normal user (think your grandmother) and you want to look at the green shirt on the right hand side (Skunk #1). If you mouseOver the thumbnail image and then try to move to to the larger image, then 9 times out of 10 you are going to accidentally cross over the thumbnail image for the shirt titled g-13. It is non-intuitive to use that functionality either way.
That said, to do what you want isn't very difficult at all, but you would have to modify the script that you already have, specifically the MM_swapImage function. You would first need to wrap the 'big' image with an anchor tag <a> and name that tag. Then inside of the MM_swapImage function, you would need to find the line where it actually changes the img src of 'big' and have it also change the a href of the wrapper anchor tag. Simple huh? |
