very dumb javascript popup window question

[MisterServer]

hi, javascript noob here! i've got a page full of images, what i simply want to do is have a popup window open up if i click on an image. also, clicking on another image in the page should refresh that popup window with the new image. can't figure out how to do the refreshing part! tia!:beer:

Name the window and direct it to the same window.

<script language="JavaScript">
function openpic(picturepath){
if(picswindow){
windows.picswindow.location = "picturepath";
}else
window.open("picturepath","picswindow");
}
}
</script>

Ok put the above script into the head of the main page with all the pictures. Than for all the images should have an onClick event like this. <img src="pathtothumbnail.jpg" onClick="openpic(fullsizedpic.jpg)">

ok, ran into another problem. eventually i got each of my images to popup to the same popup window, with that popup window focused on. but when I close down that popup window, i get an error and i can't open another popup window... can anyone tell me what im doing wrong?

Google your error msg...as far as sites, i just google for anything I dont know how to do, Javascript is a pretty easy language if you ask me especially if you have previous programing experience. In my function I had a type of instead of windows.picswindow.location it should be window.picwindows.location sorry, and you might want to add window.picslocation.focus() to make sure it brings the popup into focus but you might have already figured that out.
