Why is it when I change my default small image size, my hover/zoom ability goes away? See I've change my small image size to 120 x 80, and the zoom ability has disappeared when browsing the products:

My Images config menu screenshot is available at:

Please yell at me if this has already been asked and answered. Trust me, I've spent a long time searching and I'm not finding it...
Is it possible to make it so that when I hover on the small image, it zooms to the images in my _LRG folder instead of the medium images (which do not exist in my case)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I decided to go to config>images>Product Info - Image Medium Suffix and change it to _LRG and then make a copy of all of my large images and put them into the _MED folder. That solves my problem for now, not sure how it might affect anything in the future.

I think you have been mislead. The Attributes image upload and 'designation' puts the sttributes images in a differnt folder, and AFAIK Image handler doesn't wqork, but a guy called colinr has a add-in module that does exactly this and it's called: 'PopUp on Attribute Images' and you can get it from the zen cat downloads section here.
Voisin ... the jscript file.. seem to have mislaidyour post here though..
Well I should have been hoovering my van out but I did this for u instead

Let us know what you get? The IH2 zoom window should stop climbing off the page with IE, when low images are zoomed.
I know netscape, firefox and opera don't use the modified line, but there may be other browsers apart from IE that do use it, so of course I don't know what those 'others' might do with this mod.

Looks like a great tool, but for the life of me couldn't find how to deal with attribute popups because it takes me to the same Admin page as before.
So, thank you very much for saving me lots of headaches and frustration.
But, I must also thank the poster who "misled" me into IH2 because I will use it for other purposes.
I aleady downloaded the contrib you suggested and will install it too, however I have a doubt: apparently this generates thumbnail images, I need to popup a larger image, which I can upload to the server previously.
Do you know where I can see this mod in action?
For your information, I have also been pointed here:
http://forum.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?t=60833
This mod seems to do the trick, I have seen it working and although it is not exactly what I need, seems to do the job pretty well.
Thank you all.

I don't know where the PopUp on Attribute Images can be seen working, but I suspect if you contact the author here he may well advise you as to where it is in use, but don't tell him I suggested that you contact him, because he is working on a mod to allow me to use my existing thumbnails and large images, which it doesn't at present. (It uses the large image to generate the thumbnails)
I thought about the alternative that you have found, but it doesn't allow the thumbnail to have text, and the text is essential to me, so I can't tell you where it is in use!!
Now if you happen to find an add-in that allows me to use my own optimised thumbnails with my large images, but allows me to have text under the thumbnail (as attributes do in the default ZEN Cart set-up) please post your findings here.
Hareslade, thanks mate.Quote:

Your probably not the right person to ask.
While the hover/zoom works on Safari/Netscape/Firefox and now IE (thanks to you). For some reason it doesn't work from my site on Opera. While it will work from your site: http://www.consciousness-centre.co.uk/czc/index.php
Any reason/possibility as to why???? Or would it be just worthwhile reinstalling the IH2 module?
Again cheers

I already tested it on a test site and will upload it shortly to the live one I'm building.
It does print the option value under the thumbnail.
First, you upload the two files to your server, to the locations the author specifies in the thread.
Next, suppose your option name is Color and option value Black.
You create a medium size image and call it black_MED.jpg and upload it to your images/medium/attributes subfolder, which you create.
You upload via Attribute Manager your image swatch black.jpg, which is a thumbnail you created on the basis on your medium image, resizing it.
That's it!
Refresh page and you will see Click to Enlarge on top of your thumb and Black (your option value) underneath, the link to the larger image is created and launches in a new window.
I have selected 0 as the layout for this option (in Edit Layout), but if you change layout it might behave differently, haven't tested this for long yet.
This mod doesn't conflict with IH2 AFAIK, not sure about the thumbnail generator, when I had both scripts installed, some weird things were happening.
I will test further, and let you know my findings if you are interested.

I do however, have a problem with this mod. It requires that there is yet another folder for images - and I don't want to use my medium-sized images. I would like to be able to use my own large images from the standard Zen Cart folder i.e. images/large. Still it's very,very close. I might see if I can hack the code to get it to work the way I want it to!!
