Open image in new window

Question

How can I open an image in a new window by using its id?

function swipe()
{   
    var largeImage = document.getElementById(\'largeImage\');
            


        

Answer 1

For a new window that has a good chance of being lost behind the main window, and generally annoying visitors:

window.open('http://example.com/someImage.png');

I'd just stick to a regular link if I were you.
