I was wondering if there is a function or method to Brighten an Image on Load(or Onclick) . The reason i need is i have an image gallery which lists all the images in smaller size on the left side of the webpage . when the user clicks on the smaller size image on left frame , it shows on the right side with its original size . I want to differniate the smaller image which the user clicked on the left frame from other images .
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!
 
You could use a simple image swap to an exact image except that it is made brighter with a graphics program like Paint Shop Pro.
Code:
<a href="bigImage.gif" onclick="image1.src= 'brightImage.gif';"
 	target = "therightframe">
 	 <img name="image1" src="dullImage.gif" border='0'alt='' ></a>
Hope it helps.

An easier option would be to put a border around the selected image using CSS, or you could use an alpha filter, but that's IE/Moz only, AFAIK... Or, use an image swap, as Glen suggests.

Hope this helps,
