Zoom and Click Image

JavaScript
1

I am more of an HTML / PHP and CSS person, but I have a requirement which will need javascript, rather than reinvent the wheel I have been looking for a tool which does the following:

  1. Display an image in an img element
  2. Allow the image to be zoomed in and out and scrolled in the same img element.
  3. Returns the co-ordinates of a double click converted to the position on the original image, so I can jump to a page for that area of the image.

I have done a search on the web and found
http://www.rborn.info/blog/moozoom/

Which covers item 1 and 2, and works well on Firefox, but is very jerky on IE, and does not cover item 3.

Is there another tool which works in a similar way? if not does any one know why the moozoom is jerky in IE?

Thanks so much for your advice.

Jane.

Magic Zoom is the original tool for doing image zoom. Co-ordinate output was added in version 2.0. Magic Zoom is now in version 3.1. Here are some examples.

To get co-ordinates of the position where the image is clicked, use the API that is part of Magic Zoom. There is a good example in this demo zip file - open the file example13.html.
