How do I modify the javascript in Lightbox v2.04 to include mouseover effect?

I am trying to develop a page that will include an inventory of photographs and would like to speed up the user experience by letting them mouseover to enlarge an image.I have lightbox 2.04 working right now nicely and I saw a solution posted earlier but it seems outdated. The script has been enhanced. i tried replacing "click" with "mouseover" but that did not seem to work.

i'm a coding noob.


the page is www.centerranch.com/salebarn.html


Thank you in advance.

you mean you changed
document.observe('click', (function(event){

to
document.observe('mouseover', (function(event){

?

in line 165 - 180 where the mouse events would be called, i replaced 'click' with 'onmouseover' and 'mouseover.'

neither of them worked.

:(

Any other suggestions? Thanks you for replying, btw, I sure could use the help.
