Point me in the right direction! :)

Alright guys, I need your help.

To say I've got a website is a bit of an overstatement. Right now I have a domain and web space, but the site, per se, is not up yet. What I have is a subdomain dedicated to hosting mine and my finace's images. Now, what I've got up is good, but I'm constantly trying to tweak it a bit more, as I'm still experimenting with PHP before I get down to doing the dirty work of creating the site.

I've got each directory set up with an index.php page that displays the file names/links according to the natcasesort() function. And that's good! That's what I want! (Current code for directory Listing)

But I want it to display the images slightly differently than how it's doing. What I want to do is each time an image is clicked on, I want it to bring up a new window of maybe 20px wider than the image size (or, if that's not possible, then just a fixed size), and also to display the name.

But the details will come in time. Right now I just need to be pointed to the direction of a PHP function that will create a new window, kind of like how those dumb pop-up ad's come up (no tool bars, just the minimize, restore, and close buttons). I've been looking all over http://www.php.net and I can't find anything in their documentation, but then I'm not sure what category that would fall under.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks so much!
