Is there any way to get a web page to 'zoom in'?

I will expand......

I have a series of pdf files, and I want to create a dashboard effect. Is there a way to create a page that will by double clicking, or clicking a link, the pdf will expand and zoom into view for the user?

Thanks,

Adam.
 
First off why would you want to do that for a PDF file?? When a PDF file is clicked and opened from a website, Acrobat kicks in and Acrobat has the zoom-in feature built-in...
But you can try using Flash...try to import the PDF into a flash file and then add the zoom capability...there might also be some ASP scripts that might give you the 'zoom' feature as well... I have not failed; I have merely found 100,000 different ways of not succeding...
 
Why not use the CSS zoom property?

How about using a magnifier to zoon on a page?


The magnifying glass is at the top left hand corner on the page.
