<script src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/ImageZoom/mootools-1-2-1.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <script src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/ImageZoom/mootools-1-2-more.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <script src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/ImageZoom/main.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <script src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/ImageZoom/imagezoom.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <link href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/ImageZoom/imagezoom.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"></link> <script src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/ImageZoom/demos.js" type="text/javascript"> </script>
4.Now for adding the images into ImageZoom Firstly add the image normally using Insert Image button
Now When you see the code in the edit HTMLwindow it would be something like this
| <a href=" large3.jpg"=""><img border="0" height="90" src="/small3.jpg" width="120" /></a> |
Make it like this
| <a href=" " rel="imagezoom" ><img src=" " /></a> |
As you can see we added only a rel="imagezoom".
For Gallery , add the following code
| <a href=" " rel="imagezoom[Gallery_Name]" ><img src=" " /></a> |
<a href=" " rel="imagezoom[Gallery_Name]" ><img src=" " /></a>For overlaying the items the code is
<a href="javascript: openImageZoomOverlay();"><img id="demo_overlay" src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/floatbox/zion_valley_thm.jpg" alt="Speed" width="100; height="100;/></a>
In the code ,the src image should be the small one and the link to the larger image should be given in the demos.js file
5.Now save the Post/Page and see the magic.
