Nice plugin. I see there’s a way to turn of mousewheel zoom, but if I want to use it and set it true, is there any way to stop it manually?

What I really need is user comes to site, can zoom in the picture, use the mousewheel too, but then, he would have to manually sroll down the page. Can he/she click a key or something to deactivate the mousewheel zoom, so they can naturally use the mousewheel to scroll down the page?

Hi James,
great plug-in (& blog in general)! I really like the way you’ve incorporated the grey scaling stuff from your previous post, it’s a nice touch.
Have you considered using custom events instead of callbacks, as an example:

I think it would make your widget more scalable:

A few issues in 3.5rc1, if you mouseoff the image then back over there is a strange effect where the zoom keeps flickering

Hmmm, very nice plugin, although I’m never a big fan of pay-to-play scripts.

Nicely, though, it’s only a Lincoln.

@Flashr, Really? I just tested it with 9.63, 9.64 and 10 – works perfectly in all.

@Jan, if a larger image is provided in the options (“zoomSrc”) then it will be used, otherwise the image will just be stretched.

Very nice!
How does this work? Do you just stretch the image or are you using a high resolution image for the zoomer?
