This is a browser feature. Some browsers have a plug-in that adds this
functionality. It has nothing to do with Django itself.

I'm not sure what 'get_photo_url' is, nor why you are trying to use
Django templates to present a straight jpg image.

In short, you'll need to investigate a client-side solution to get this
behavior, and Django is only server-side.

possibly because I have flu and my brain is not working. Actually the problem 
was that the image was not displaying at full resolution, which was due to 
the width tag. I did not really need the magnifier. I have solved the problem 
by accepting the lower resolution image and providing a link to the raw jpeg 
file. Anyway thanks as your questions clarified my question.

how to get a magnifier in an image

2008-09-29 Thread Kenneth Gonsalves

hi,
when I open a jpg file directly in firefox, I get a magnifying glass cursor, 
which on clicking gives me a bigger more detailed image. The same file when 
served through the get_photo_url in a django template does not give this - 
how can I achieve this?
