Hi everyone,

I would like to know if this is possible.
On my articles i would like to have images that can be expanded via a mouse hover or a click of the mouse.e.g;like on Ebay where you see a small image and you click on it and it expands to show the full size!Is this possible? is this hard to achieve? can this be done via the editor.

Thanks for any and all answers.

Hi Johntoh,

I like the JGSoft thumbscreen but you have to hand-code it into Joomla.

Magic Zoom is a Joomla tool - looks neat but I haven't tested it personally.

Hi Bob

eBay and a lot of other sites create a new thumbnail image from the larger one, usually. However, you can try this:

<img src="image.jpg" height="250" width="120" onclick="window.open('http://www.website.com/image.jpg', '_blank', 'width=800, height=500');" />

In the part, "window.open......", the URL should be the same as the image's source.

very usefull for me too. Thanks

Thanks johntoh, i was searching for how to re-size the images of my website in Joomla and certainly came across this discussion which help me a lot. Now this is fruitful by coming to this topic.
