Thanks for your reply, Philip, but I was hoping for a more detailed response actually giving me step by step instructions as to how to add an anchor tag an/or existing php function call to open up a popup window containing the product image which overlaps/overlays the current display containing the product info produced by the inserted product view within the article 
My problem is that I need to know what code to use to make this popup happen in the product-insert-view file.
Even if I create a new view, I need to know what code to put in it and then how to use that view as the view used for the product-insert short code.
I have tried modifying the code in the current hikashopproductinsert_view.php but it does not open a new smaller window overlaying the current page, it opens a new _blank window which takes the whole browser area so it looks like the SqueezeBox code that I added is not functioning as it does in the original standard Hikashop Product Page default view.
You can see an example here:

Can you please give me more specific details how to do this?
