Hi Folks,

Was wondering if a certain widget exists...

Here are my specs...

The content is just a gif/jpeg image. Could be a clip too for sports.

Anyway, I want to render it as a small thumbnail with HREF functionality
such that when clicked, it will produce a small POPUP for measurably larger
viewing and/or optionally launch the OS app that is responsible for it's
mime-type automatically.

Do one of these beasts exist?

How close can I get with what exists of anythign does exist?

If nothing exists, what could you suggest for a new widget? Should I
implement it myself? Any moch-up code to suggest or ideas?

I have my own Proto.library and could easily add a new widget to it that
does this kind of stuff.

Hate to re-invent the wheel if it already exists.

Thanks

Best regards
Ken in nashua
