Update HTML and PHP to use Jquery tools Panel

Project Description:
We have a search results page generated by PHP and HTML. It pulls thumbnails and info from a database (no comments about storing thumbs in databases, I know what I'm doing!) and displays them in a thumbnail gallery format.

Currently when you click on a thumb, it launches a click counter php script which echo's the real image url, adds the media click to the database, and closes its self.

What I need for it to do is: When you click a thumb, it opens the thumb URL in a Jquery tools panel and launches the click counter php script which adds the click to the database and closes it's self.

I've never messed with Jquery tools outside of a CMS, and don't have the time to mess with it now.

Essentially all you have to do is modify the results HTML page to open a picture url in in a Jquery Panel when the thumb is clicked, and launch the click counter script. The click counter script is self-contained, and should not need to be modified short of removing the current - echo image -, and I will do that.
