Yes, that's what this modification is supposed to do.

Are you not seeing the links or are they somehow displaying incorrectly?

Perhaps if I took a look at your site I could figure out what is wrong. If you don't want to post the address you could send me a private message.

my site address is

OK, so I assume you are trying to fix pages like this one:

http://www.wildshopping.com/customer/product.php?productid=23&cat=3&page=1&XCARTSESSID= 7d9a0574f0300dfc527441d8f506a88e

If you've already made the changes I described in my first post, then here's what to do...

In an image editor, scale your screen-shot image down to a reasonable preview size.
Then log into your admin area.
Go to "Modify Product".
Enter the product number, and click "search".
Select the product and click "Modify".
In the "product thumbnail" section click "change image".
Under the heading " File on your local computer", click browse.
(This process may differ a bit depending upon your version of x-cart.)
Select the file of the new preview image on your hard drive.
And click "Open".
Then click "Apply".
Then click "Submit Changes".

At this point, your page will look a lot better because you'll have a small preview image instead of the big one. It'll also load faster.

Next, go back to the modify product screen for the same product.
Scroll down to the "Detailed images" section.
Click Browse and select the file of the high resolution image on your hard drive. (The original large screen-shot.)
In the "Alternative text" field, enter "Click to Zoom".

Then everything will look the way you want it.

Thanks for the advice

Nice mod slimmedia, clever quick way of doing it too

[dazybabes]

I know this one is a little old but just wanted to know if you can add anything into this code so that when the image pops open the window is only as large as the image??

Any ideas anyone?

[rkdiddy]

So I tried the above code and it doesn't seem to be working...

Can some please help. I live the idea of having a zoom link...thanks!

That is a VERY old post, so that is why it doesn't work in your version. Just use this one, it works for 4.0:

Rkdiddy, balinor hit it right on!
This is the best mod for a detaled image pop up from the product thumbnail image.
It supports multiple detailed images and has Б─°nextБ─² and Б─°previousБ─² links at the top of the pop up window. If you only have one detailed image, then the Б─°nextБ─² and Б─°previousБ─² links do not show up. The mod also has auto window re-sizing for varying image sizes.
Again the thread is at;

http://forum.x-cart.com/viewtopic.php?t=11621

You can pm me and I will send you a link to my site, so you can see a live working demo.
Boomer (the author of the mod) gives a link in the thread for an example, but it does not show the multiple image capability.
