Found another nearly identical script that enlarges Amazon's product images when you hover over them. I find it a bit less disruptful to the page layout because of this. Has pretty much the same quirks though...

Great work. I do see a quirk or two (images sometimes get "stuck" in their small size when rolling over), but no deal breakers anymore. Nice job on getting the fix out so quickly!

Looking forward to the next version.

Okay, I've posted a version that pretty much works, though it's a bit quirky.

@vincer: Thanks for the bug report. I'm working on fixing this. Unfortunately, it seems that Amazon has totally rewritten the way they track alternative images. Apart from the tag feature they seem to have introduced a way to switch between sets of images (see the bed size buttons on the page you linked). After scanning through the entire 10,000 line page that you linked to I actually still haven't figured out what's going on. Since reverse-engineering their code may take a while I'm going to post a temporary version of the script that will work, but somewhat less gracefully than the old version.

I really like this script, but I've found a new bug. It breaks when one or more of the images has tags (new amazon feature?).
Example:
http://www.amazon.com/Queen-Size-Solid-Wood-Pla...

Roll over the images that have notes.

I hope this can get fixed before this new notes feature becomes popular! Thanks for the good work!

Works great. And is handy when I go to amazon for album artwork. Thanks.
