Magic Zoom Plus - strange zoom

I've installed Magic Zoom Plus V2.03 and, while the rollover zoom works fine, clicking on either of the mini thumbnails causes the main image to expand into the whole of the content area. The product I've applied it to is the top one at http://000.artinet.co.uk/acatalog/Rowal ... cases.html

I've got the usual Actinic product image with the Zoom Images in Zoom Image 0 and Zoom Image 1. The Extended Information pop-up is disabled.

Any idea why it could be doing this?

When I look at the source of that product image I see:

Code: Select all

<img src="31-6055.jpg" id="im-a539" border="0" width="125" alt="Rowallan Messenger Bag 31-6055" />
There is no height attribute and that product image is really a lot bigger than 125px wide.

It looks like someone is trying to display all product images at a fixed width (causing jaggy browser based scaling). This is interfering with magic Zoom Plus, which is restoring these images to their true dimensions.

If you restore the height="<actinic:variable name="ProductImageHeight" />" and use smaller product images then all should be well.

You're right of course - resetting width and height to the Actinic variables fixed it. A lesson learned :)
