Need help with iframe targeting

Hey all... if you can't tell by my question, I'm a definite newbie, but I'm having a targeting/linking issue with my page. My page has two iframes right in the middle of it. The purpose of one is to display pictures. The purpose of the other is to display text/content. I want to know if there is a way to have a text link in the content frame which will pull up a thumbnail of a photo in the picture frame. I'd like the thumbnail to link to a separate blank page where the full-sized picture is displayed. I'm really having a time trying to figure this all out, so if you could help me out, please let me know. Thanks a ton.

1. When you set up your iframes, you can declare an ID and name attribute for them. Use the name/ID of the iframe you want to load as the target= attribute in the anchor tag.

2. You can open a completely new window either with javascript or with target="_blank".
