Fancy Zoom works with any html (images, text, headings, flash). The only caveat is it doesn't currently work with AJAX. Whatever you want to zoom to must be html already on the page.Width and height of zoom box are configurable through optional setting or css.Note: This tutorial requires that you either have a free Dropbox account or some other file hosting which provides a folder options.
Steps to Add it to Blogger:
1.Login to the Blogger account.
2. Now Go to Design > Edit HTML.
A little tweaking is required for the proper functioning of this plugin
-Firstly Open the fancyzoom,js file and find var directory in it ,It would appear something like this:
var directory = options && options.directory ? options.directory : 'images';
Make it like this
var directory = 'http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/FancyZoom/jquery/images/';
Where images folder contain the various images like Close button,etc (This is where DropBox helps)
3.Now search for the </head> tag and paste the following code just Above/Before it.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.2.6/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/FancyZoom/jquery/js/fancyzoom.js"></script>

2.Go to the Post/Page you want to add FancyZoom and then go to Edit HTML tab .
3.Now copy the code from below and paste it there.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.2.6/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27675057/FancyZoom/jquery/js/fancyzoom.js"></script>

4.Now adding images into FancyZoom is little bit different from other scripts
First add a image as shown
<div class="photo">
<a href="#abc">
<img src="small.jpg" />
</a>
</div>
Now add this div tag containing the larger version of the image
<div id="abc">
<img src="Large.jpg" />
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('div.photo a').fancyZoom({scaleImg: true, closeOnClick: true});
});
</script>
Here are Some Example Codes:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('div.photo a').fancyZoom({scaleImg: true, closeOnClick: true});
$('#medium_box_link').fancyZoom({width:400, height:300});
$('#large_box_link').fancyZoom();
$('#flash_box_link').fancyZoom();
});
</script>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
#large_box {width:800; height:600;}
</style>
<div id="photos">
