TNG Image Viewer
The TNG Image Viewer provides an easy way to view large images on your TNG website. This is particulary useful for images such as census records, which are unreadable if shrunk to fit on the screen. You can see an example here.

This has been tested on IE6, IE7, Chrome, Firefox, Mozilla, Opera and Safari.

Thanks to Nicholas B. Flint who posted the original implementation on which this was based, and to http://persistent.info, from which I took the magnifier concept and adapted it for my own use.

Revision History
Revision 1.8.1 (17 Feb 2009)
- The img_utils.js file included in the 1.8 version was not resizing the iframe properly and resulted in images only displaying the first few rows of pixels.

Revision 1.8 (5 Feb 2009)
- Fixed issue with image maps not being properly scaled when an image was "Fit to Width". Also renamed the image map ID to 'imgMapViewer' to prevent any name conflicts.

Revision 1.7.1 (28 July 2008)
- Fixed a minor bug that caused images with non-alphanumeric character in their description to not display.
