I'm using MSIE to preview pages in 1st Page 2000.

When I preview a page that has an anchor to a jpeg image double clicking on the anchor displays the jpeg using the Windows Media Player.

But when I publish the same page and use the same anchor the jpeg is displayed within the browser (MSIE).

Is there any way to have the jpegs displayed using MSEI rather than the Windows Media Player when I'm previewing in 1st Page 2000?

Hi Josh,

Here is the line of code you requested. You should be aware that this problem occurs with any anchor linked to any jpeg on my system.

<!-- The following anchor displays small (thumbnail) of a jpeg, clicking the anchor displays the full sized jpeg -->
<a href="dave cub.JPG" Target = "_blank"><img src="dave cub.JPG" width="340" height="280" border="3" align="right"></a>

I'm wondering if it is caused by a file association on my PC (Windows ME). As I said, once a page is published and I go to the site the Jpeg is displayed withinin the browser.

Hope you can shed some light on this.

Your code should not have space in it after dave and before cub(dave cub.JPG).

Any time you have file name in it, do not put space in it. Also your window system files name should not have space in it too.

If you have to have space, use underbar.

Hope this clear up the rules.
