A JQuery Plug-In to Scale Objects to Fit or Fill Within Another Object



CJ Object Scaler

A JQuery Plug-In to Scale Objects to Fit or Fill Within Another Object.
CJ Image Scaler will scale an object to fit or fill within a destination object.

You have two scaling methods to choose from:

Scale To Fit (fit) - This method will scale the object image to fit the destination object.
Scale To Fill (fill) - This method will scale the source object to completely fill the destination object.

You also have the option to hide the object prior to calculating the scale amount and
performing a fade in once the object has been scaled.

Take a look at the source code for a better look at what's going on. If you need further
explanation of how this plug-in scales things, shoot me a message!

User Options
You have a few options that you can pass to the plug-in. These change basic functionality and are listed below:
