browser compatibility:

iFishEye is compatible and tested in Internet Explorer, Firefox (and its mozilla friends), Opera and Safari (thanks Erik for testing it). But it should work in other browsers too... If you successfully find another compatible browser, please let me know ;)

features:

iFishEye is fully configurable. You can change any default option just initializating the class with an object in JSON. The following options are available:

(object) container (default document)
(string) targetImageClass (default ".iFishEyeImg")
(string) targetCaptionClass (default ".iFishEyeCaption")
(jso) dimThumb (default {width:64, height:64})
(jso) dimFocus (default {width:128, height:128})
(int) eyeRadius (default 128)
(int) pupilRadius (default 50)
('x' || 'y' || "both") useAxis (default 'x')
("L1" || "L2") norm (default "L1")
(string) blankPath (default "images/blank.gif")
(function) onEyeOver(obj) (default function(){})
(function) onEyeOut(obj) (default function(){})
(function) onPupilOver(obj) (default function(){})
(function) onPupilOut(obj) (default function(){})

how to use:

First of all, iFishEye is built over MooTools v1.1, so both libraries are required.
Get MooTools at http://mootools.net and iFisheye here.
With scripts in hands, include them between your "head" definition:

Initialize the iFishEye class:

That's it, at this rate you should be able to use iFishEye. To enable the effect for something, just add the properties class="iFishEyeImg" to the image and class="iFishEyeCaption" to the caption.

Nothing better than an example to explain a tool usage, so here is the code behind this page examples:
