In HTML you would use something like this:

<a href="http://www.site.com/pic.jpg" target="_blank">

It is the target attribute that dictates the locale of the image.

A more elegant method is by JavaScript, but it also has it problems.

window.open(filePath + 'image.jpg','','width=640,height=480')

(or simpler)

window.Open("http://www.site.com/yourimage.gif");

Use it like this:

<a href="#" onClick="window.open('image.jpg', '_blank', 'width=640, height=480,scrollbars=no');"><img src="image.jpg" /></a>

(or more complete)

<a href="imagePage.html" target="_blank"  onClick="window.open('image.jpg', '_blank', 'width=640, height=480, left=100,top=100,scrollbars=no');return false"><img src="image.jpg" alt="" class="your_css_class"/></a>

This is really just beginner code fragments. There are always problems to all methods.
