I've looked through posts on iframes but could not find an answer. Is there a way to load images, within an html wrapper, without making html files for each. I have js that will wrap images in html for a popup widow but I'm having trouble converting this idea to use in an iframe. Any ideas?

When your script generates the html that "holds" an image, what is the final URL of that document - the one in the pop-up window? That's what needs to be in the iframe. The bare uri for an image (no html at all) can also be there, but you sacrifice control of margins/padding that way.

It does a window.open and writes some basic code to it. Basically just html, title and body tags. The issue is that I need to set background colors and a border to the images. IE won't put a background on an iframe or else calling just the image would work just fine. I've been using this for popups:

function Start(URL, WIDTH, HEIGHT)
{
windowprops = "left=50,top=50,width=" + (WIDTH+30) + ",height=" + (HEIGHT+30);
text = "<html><head><title>Preview</title></head><body";
text += "><center><img src='" + URL + "'>";
text += "</center></body></html>";
preview1 = window.open("", "preview1", windowprops, false);
preview1.document.open();
preview1.document.write(text);
preview1.document.close();
}
