This doesn't work with inline images and newer browsers as the author has stopped developing it. Pity really because it has the right simplicity to enlarge graphics in an article.
This was very easy to get setup, and works for both IE 7 and firefox 2. My only complaint is that it would be nice to have the option to automatically create the thumbnail from the big picture.
I tried a few other plugins for zooming a pc but they caused my site to display a blank page.
This is working in IE7, the zoom image does extend slightly below the backgound. But anyone using IE would probably think that was how it is supposed to be displayed.
Hint: If the images are in the plugins defined folder just enter their name in the code and no path.
Overall i like this plugin.

Although I am not the fan of IE, but many people are still using IE, hence a website should be able to be accessed by IE.
I have tried to use IE 6.0 to access the demo page and it simply says "IE cannot open the internet site"
The plugin seems to implement good cache, but the fact, that IE is unable to access it, is very disappointing.
