    "Click to enlarge" that opens a new window is very "old style" and you may want to just incorporate a lightbox (which most sites are using today) There is a version for OSCMax in the contributions...

    Product Image Ajax Lightbox Popup - osCMax - osCommerce Maximized

    sorry, can't really. Most of us have moved away from the pop-up method as we try to keep it all in the browser these days.

    Lightbox is so bloated
    Michael just gave me a hard time in another thread for pointing back to OSC when there was a solution in OSCMax. So now I point to lightbox here and you give me a hard time... there is no pleasing some people. (my lightbox version (installed before there was an OSCMax version) is very unbloated, thank you very much. And soon it will be changed to some very nice and jquery... )
    so endith the lesson

    Merely referring to Slimbox 2, the drop-in replacement to Lightbox, which is included in 2.1, at the present time. Also installed via the mod. mentioned above, with auto-thumbnails for those who struggle to get their head around reading/creating thumbnails.

    Back to the original topic, to get the "Click to enlarge" link to work per the demo, you need to change the settings in the admin panel - Admin >> Configuration >> Dynamic Mopics

    Change the Big Images to be blank - delete whatever is set there. That is all you have to do.
