Aside from the shaking effect and minor issues on the mouse over, I have noticed that when set to $ZOOM_BOXES = "mousedown" if I click and release, the ballon disappears. If I click and drag off magnifier icon, then release mouse1 the ballon stays correctly. Seems to me that a simple click, should zoom, and stay zoomed.
BTW: The help line in %gedcomfile%_conf.php indicates I should have "click" and not "mousedown" as the configuration util wrote it.
Problem exists on both my Index and MySQL installs. CVS current as of 10:00 PM (PST).
Thanks,

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
There should be three options to choose from in the configuration settings for the zoom boxes:
MouseOver
MouseDown
MouseClick
The MouseOver will expand the box when your mouse is over the icon and shrink the box when your mouse leaves the icon.
The MouseDown will keep the box zoomed as long as your mouse button is down, but will shrink the box again when you let go of the button.
The MouseClick option will expand the box when you first click the icon and shrink the box when you click the icon again.
The popup links only have two options, mouseover and mouseclick which behave in the same way as described above. A mousedown on this icon doesn't make sense because then you couldn't click on the links in the popup window.

With MouseDown, I found that if user moves pointer off icon, and releases button. The ballon will stay until icon is clicked again. Not sure if this is entirely how it was to work, but still appears, based upon the description, half working right.
However, it does work as advertised, the rest was my interpretation of the text.
