jQuery Forum

I followed the video tutorial verbatim for the imgPreview. I've spent two days trying to get the plug-in to work. Nothing. There is a lack of information in the video. Obviously the video had been made for a skilled programmer. VERY frustrating to waste so much time on a so-called plug-in- a term that is associated with the word EASY!. The video was like getting directions in a town that you are unfamilliar with...you can't miss it. YOU CAN!
It seems that the installation has missing pieces  to enable work for the developers. I've read countless runaround tutorials and gained nothing but more wasted time. This is not a good way to learn. Plugin= EASY- NOT $$ or wasted time. I have no background in css- though I've given myself a crash course in Dreamweaver. I am experienced with action script 3 in Flash but now it's a relic, and Flash seems to be going away due HTML 5. By the time I learn jQuery, it would probably also be outdated. IS there a GOOD guide of step by step instructions for the plug-in? I've just about run out of patience and wanted to shout out my frustration with the JQ mess. There's just no good tutorials for it that I have found. Not that I wanted to learn it...I just wanted a code to enlarge my images- not the size of my head, which is about to explode.
