Jquery image preview plugin issue...
- by Pandiya Chendur
I have a problem with an image preview that comes up when you hover over a thumbnail. I can change the distance between the preview and the cursor, but if a thumbnail is close to the side of the window, the preview cant fit and you only see part of it.. hope that makes sense...
is there a way to make it so that if the preview doesnt fit, it will show up on the other side of the cursor?....
Here is the script...
this.imagePreview = function() {
/* CONFIG */
xOffset = 10;
yOffset = 30;
// these 2 variable determine popup's distance from the cursor
// you might want to adjust to get the right result
/* END CONFIG */
$("a.preview").hover(function(e) {
this.t = this.title;
this.title = "";
var c = (this.t != "") ? "<br/>" + this.t : "";
$("body").append("<p id='preview'>
<img src='" + this.href + "' alt='Image preview' />" + c + "</p>");
$("#preview")
.css("top", (e.pageY - xOffset) + "px")
.css("left", (e.pageX + yOffset) + "px")
.fadeIn("slow");
},
function() {
this.title = this.t;
$("#preview").remove();
});
$("a.preview").mousemove(function(e) {
$("#preview")
.css("top", (e.pageY - xOffset) + "px")
.css("left", (e.pageX + yOffset) + "px");
});
};
// starting the script on page load
$(document).ready(function() {
imagePreview();
});
EDIT:
see what i am getting,
