WebAppers has a nice post about a JavaScript image magnifier called PopBox!:

PopBox is an image magnification javascript solution for dynamically moving and resizing images on your web page. Javascript? Yes - I know it’s nothing new and that you’ve been able to move and resize things in Javascript for years, but only now is there a prepackaged solution that makes it as easy as 3 lines of HTML without knowing a lick about positioning!

The main features of the script include:

  • Simple implementation.
  • Does not navigate away from the page or create separate windows.
  • Does not require any special browser plug-ins. 100% script and CSS solution.
  • Includes a multi-line caption capability that dynamically sizes to fit.
  • Allows for a different image to be used for the thumbnail and Popped images - on page load or on image click.
  • Can display a user-defined text message across the top of the image on page load on the thumbnail image.
  • Can display a user-defined text message across the top of the image after it has been popped.

More information on this script can be found on the project page including documentation and demos.
