I was just wondering how it\'s possible to zoom in a pic using jquery,
something like this web site,
link text
when you click on the big image it\'ll zoo
They don't zoom in, what is really happening is that when you click the Zoom text, the image inside the div is replaced by a larger version of that image. And overflow is set to hidden.
As you move your cursor, using some clever JavaScript and DOM handling, the image is simply moved relatively accordingly, creating the effect you are actually zooming in the picture.
I'll try to create up a simple example for you.
EDIT
Sorry took a while but here it is:

You will need to adjust the thumbnail and full-sized image width and height accordingly. But simply copy paste the above to see an example of an image hosted on imageshack.
What you need is not just plain zooming. But a zoom and pan function within a fixed viewport. The website you gave probably code it from scratch. I found one for you which is not exactly the same, but you might want totake a look here.
Meanwhile, I'm eager to see what Sbm007's example.
Asos.com coded theirs from scratch, see how with Firebug: http://www.asos.com/assets/asosCom/js/libs/asos.js.utils.productpage.js
The gzoom, miniZoomPan, WarpZoom, and Image Detail plugins all make this sort of thing easy. You can find them all here:

There are probably others too.
Hope that helps!
EDIT: There are several more listed on a previous question called What’s the best jQuery product zoom plugin?
