I followed Stu Nicholls' photo gallery tutorial on creating a simple photo gallery here (http://www.cssplay.co.uk/articles/gallery/index.html). I just changed it a little so that you have to click on the thumbnails to show the larger image instead of hovering. What I would like to be able to do is to have the larger image that is displayed be a link itself, to a fullsize image. I wouldnt mind having a link to the fullsize image in the caption either if that would work. The problem is that when I try to make the image a link to the fullsize image, it just jumps straight to the fullsize image and skips past the "medium" stage. Also, if I go the route of adding the link to the caption, it just screws up the thumbnails. If you guys could give me some ideas, that would be great.
For all I know, this could end up being a a simple solution, but I figured I would put it out there for all you guys. I've dabbled in css/php/ and whatnot but I'm not that great.

You can try to see this:

The important thing is POSITION, and if you want a nice pop up image through click on link try to use Javascript:

Thanks for the reply. I'd rather stay away from javascript at the moment and leave that as a last resort.
The "Thumbnails at right" part of this (http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menu/gallery_click) page is pretty much exactly what I am doing. If anyone has any ideas as to how to make the larger image that is brought up on click to be a link of its own to an even larger image, or how to put a link in the description that is displayed under the image, that would be very helpful.
Thanks again for the reply. I just have the gallery itself all set, and would rather stay away from javascript for right now.

I found the most wonderful gallery, downloaded the files, but can't figure out how to install it or use it on my site. I've got the click_gallery.js and the photo_click.css added to my site.
It is the one by Stu Nichols found here:http://www.stunicholls.com/gallery/photo_click.html
Is there anywhere that has some instructions on what to do to install this script. I am using a CSS external file already on my page and will this be a problem to add another style sheet to the same page?
Here is the page I am trying to work on:

I would greatly appreciate anyone that can give me advice.
thanks
