    I am writing a simple image replacement script on a site I am working on and having a bit of trouble.

    The code I have at the moment consists of:


    $(function() {

    // When a thumbnail is clicked
    $(".zoom_thumbs a").click(function() {

    // Get large image attributes
    var largeImg = $(this).attr("href");
    var largeTitle = $(this).children("img").attr("title");
    var zoomImage = $(".zoom_cnt .zoom img");

    //Change the attributes of the large image
    $(zoomImage).attr({ src: largeImg, alt: largeTitle, title: largeTitle });

    //Once the attributes have been changed - reposition the div containing the image to center it
    var wideWidth = $("#wide").width();
    var imageWidth = $(".zoom_cnt").width();
    var marginLeft = (wideWidth - imageWidth) / 2;
    var wideHeight = $("#content").height();
    var imageHeight = $(".zoom_cnt").height();
    var marginTop = (wideHeight - imageHeight) / 2;
    $(".zoom_cnt").css("left", marginLeft);
    $(".zoom_cnt").css("top", marginTop);

    return false;
    });
    });


    I have put in some comments to show you what I am doing in each step and what I want to achieve. My problem is I want the reposition of the div containing the image to occur after image attributes have been changed. At the moment it doesn't unless I click the thumbnail again (I take it this is because the image has already been loaded and in is cache?). Is what I am trying to do achievable?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

    P.S I am aware that once this is done the images are going to be jumping about, but I will be doing hide/show effects once this has been fixed.
