Ok, I'm a high school student and I'm in over my head and I could use some advice. I'm designing a web page for a local business and I need a convenient way for customers to view his products.

My idea is to make something similar to Ebay and have a viewer window that shows a bigger picture, and have all of the products in a table below it. When a customer clicks on a thumbnail, that thumb pops up in a viewer window.

Can anybody give me some advice? I first thought about trying to create a seperate frame for the photo, but how would I make that work without creating a seperate webpage for each product?

There's a couple of ways to do this, using the span tag or using Lightbox http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/.
