Calling all website experts - I need to find a Zoom function

[Frenchiexno1]

Chaps on the mdhp there is a magnifying glass that when you click on lets you zoom with th mouse pointer. I really need this function for my sit but cant find it yet.

Anyone know where I can get this code, or some decent webmaster resources??


Thanks

Hi Frenchie - I like the idea.

Have you looked at how Google maps do their zoom using Ajax? No postbacks, no screen flicker.

The 'zoom' function is used with a higher quality image, that JavaScript then grabs when you rollover a part of another image. So, you need the high quality version and the low quality version, and some code in between that you'd probably be able to illegally steal from somewhere.

I know Tag Heuer had/have it on their website
