The jQuery Magnifier

The more I use jQuery, the more I like it! Until now, I'd limited my use of effects (eye candy) to some basic fades. On a new website I'm working on, the designer wants more pizazz so I've been playing with some of the jQuery UI tools, namely the Magnifier which produces a fisheye lens effect similar to Apple's Dock (OS X or later). In short, a line of icons is magnified, as if a fisheye lens were passing over it, as the user moves their mouse near the icons.
