JavaScript Image Popup Window

I would like to setup my gallery web page so that when a user clicks on the thumbnail image, a window pops up displaying a larger view of the image. I do not mean a pop up window as in a browser window but a window that is loaded within that same page and can be closed. I am not exactly sure how I would go about doing this. Any ideas?

If you can use jQuery I would recommend

Thickbox

These are also very good

Fancybox

Pirobox

Nyromodal

ImageBox

I believe the technique you're after is a lightbox (I think it was the first of these).

Thickbox is an awesome jQuery based clone, or there's about a million others out there :-)

And a third option: jQuery Tools overlay
