How can I unbind JQZOOM in my JQuery Script? - php

Question

I have this script at the moment, which changes an image when a thumbnail has been changed. I then want JQZOOM to be added to that new image. However, if I put it inside the Onclick event, it gets slower and slower the more times you click on it... I guess because its running multiple instances.
Is there anyway to unbind the JQZOOM from something then rebind it to something else?
Here is my jquery at the moment:
var options = {
zoomWidth: 400,
zoomHeight: 325,
xOffset: 25,
yOffset: 0,
position: "right",
lens: true,
zoomType: "reverse",
imageOpacity: 0.5,
showEffect: "fadein",
hideEffect: "fadeout",
fadeinSpeed: "medium",
title: false
};
$('.jqzoom').jqzoom(options);
$('.single-zoom-image').click ( function () {
$('#bigProductImage').attr("src", $(this).attr("zoom"));
$('.jqzoom').attr("href", $(this).attr("extrazoom"));
});
Thanks in advance if anyone can help me.
Cheers!

Answer 1

This can be done as follows:
Modify jqzoom1.0.1.js where the other mouse functions are (around line 90)
//Handle clicked thumbnails changing the zoomed image
$(this).bind('changeimage', function(){
smallimage = new Smallimage( $("img", this) );
largeimage = new Largeimage(a[0].href);
smallimage.loadimage();
});
Call the zoomer as follows:
$(document).ready(function(){
var options = {
zoomWidth: 300,
zoomHeight: 200,
xOffset: 30,
yOffset: 0,
position: 'right',
title: false,
showPreload: false
};
//Handle clicking on the thumbnails, swap the mainimage and recycle the zoomer
$('.seemore').bind('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('.jssProductFullImage').attr('src', $(this).attr('href'));
$('.zoomer').attr('href', $(this).attr('href') );
//Recall the zoomer to update the page
$('.zoomer').trigger('changeimage');
});
$('.zoomer').jqzoom(options);
});

$('.jqzoom').removeData('jqzoom');
Did the job for me.
