Link_to image_tag popup

Hello All,

How can I add a popup in link_to image_tag?

I am trying as :-

<%= link_to image_tag(@user.avatar.url(:small)), ‘/users/edit’, :popup=>[‘original_image’, ‘height=700,width=900’] %>

It goes to the edit page. But it doesn’t opens popup.

Is this the correct way to call a popup?

How can I achieve this?

Thanks,

Avinash

Are you looking to open that link in a new tab? if so us :target => “_blank”… or are you looking for a lightbox style thing? If so checkout http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyphoto-jquery-lightbox-clone/ its very easy to use.
