How do I add a close window link?

[bowers01]

Hi,
Does anyone know how to add "click photo to close" under the picture?
After some user testing i found that people were clicking browser back button.
Any help would be great.
Cheers

This really should be in it's own thread, so I created one and moved it.

PHP Code:

<input type="button" value="Close Window" onclick="window.close()" />

Hi,
It was in Image and Thumbnail Display Changes because if you go to www.truckandmachinery.com.au find a listing and click on a picture, you will see the photo pops up with a black background. I need "Click picture to close" under the pic.
Any Ideas?
Cheers

Since you are using some custom javascript (I'm assuming it's javascript) and not the standard 68c popup window, I'm not sure if anyone is going to be able to help you without your code.

You should include all of the information regarding your request when you post, especially when you are using something completely different than the standard 68c stuff.

I have integrated that code here:

For me it has a close "X" image and if I click anywhere it closes the window.

Honestly no. However you could integrate this instead which has a close link:

Hi,
Thanks, the code on that tutorial is totally different to the code in viewlistings2.tpl I had to do quite a few changes to get it to work this far.

		 {* This the image display portion *}
	{if $viewphotos=="Y"}
		{if $data<>""}
			{html_table_adv loop=$data cols=$cols table_attr='width="100%"'}
<a href="photos/[[image]]" title="{$image.title}" class="thickbox" rel="gallery"><img src="thumbs/small_[[image]]" alt="{$image.title}" /></a><br />
			{/html_table_adv}
		{else}
			<img src="templates/{$smarty.const.MAIN_TEMPLATE}/images/nophoto.gif" width="100" hspace="5" vspace="5" border="1" />
		{/if}
	{/if}
	{* This ends the image display portion *}

and the calling of scripts up the top.
Now this loads the thumbnails fine, but when you click on them it takes you to the picture url and doesnt load the "gallery" or "Picture viewer" any ideas why?
Cheers,
Nick

Hi,
The code i am using at the top of the viewlisting2.tpl is

<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/thickbox/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/thickbox/thickbox-compressed.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="javascript/thickbox/javascript/thickbox/thickbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
