Here’s a cool piece of Javascript code which allows you to overlay an image zoom over the current page, without having to open a pop-up window to show the zoomed image.
“Lightbox JS is a simple, unobtrusive script used to overlay images on the current page. It’s a snap to setup and works on all modern browsers.”

Here’s a link to a WordPress Plugin which uses the same feature:
“It scans your posts for linked images and makes a nice overlay popup out of them. This is much better then linking to a new window oder even open a fullblown javascript popup. The Lighbox Popup shows a small preloader animation before showing the full image. Before i continue to talk about what it is, i better put on some example.”
