You need to provide much more information to get any answer at all.

What is your experience level with web building?

What technologies or scripting languages are used in your site?

Are you using a packaged e-commerce system? Which one?

Some of the easier alternatives include:-

- a simple hyperlink to a new page with the information
- a hover popup (css or javascript) which pops up a panel somewhere else on the page with the information; see http://www.dynamicdrive.com/style/cs...-image-viewer/ where the larger image can be text instead.
- a javascript expanding/collapsing text paragraph which inserts more text above or below your text or image with more text; useful if you want to show just the start of a paragraph but save space by not showing all of it until somone cliks on it; see http://javascript.internet.com/misce...paragraph.html (make sure your javascript is enabled and click on the blue examples).
