[Mediawiki-l] Forcing an image to link to a page?

[Sullivan, James (NIH/CIT) [C]]

I'm also interested in being able to do this.  I'm running 1.6.10 due to
my old MySQL version and the only way I found to accomplish something
similar is to add a caption to the image and make the caption a link.
Example:

[[Image:picture.jpg|300px|Caption with [[a_page_link]]]]

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Forcing an image to link to a page?

I'd like to be able to do something like:

    [[Image:a_picture.png|300px|a_page_link]]

so that clicking on the image will take the user to the specified page,
rather than to the image info page. However, I've found no instructions
on how to do this, nor has experimentation yielded any results. Should I
just do a template by hand, or is there a simpler way?

Thanks,
Ken
