Linking to same page different image

Hi,

I have over 100 images I would like to display on their own page, but link to them from an index page.

Rather than have over 100 seperate pages can anyone think of a way to link to the same page but call the required image. This is an over simplification of what i’d like to do:
<a href = ‘index.html’ = 1.jpg></a> – Will open index.html and show 1.jpg.
<a href = ‘index.html’ = 2.jpg></a> – Will open index.html and show 2.jpg.

Is this possible?

Many thanks in advance.

Martin

@OctoberWindJul 16.2010 — By using the name anchor, you can specify where on a page an href link should point.

Directory:
[code=html]
<a href="index.html#1">Go To Image 1</a>
<a href="index.html#2">Go To Image 2</a>
<a href="index.html#10">Go To Image 10</a>
[/code]


Index:
[code=html]
<a name="1"><img src="image1.jpg" /></a>
<a name="2"><img src="image2.jpg" /></a>
<a name="10"><img src="image10.jpg" /></a>
[/code]

@tirnaJul 21.2010 — maybe use this as a guide.

It will open each image, as you click its link, in the same new window.

I haven't included any validation to check if an image name has been passed correctly.
