Answer 1

It's all javascript and CSS. There has to be a jQuery or some other JS Library plugin for it but I don't know one off hand. Here is a tutorial on how to get a similar effect using jQuery.

Answer 2

you should take a look into javascript frameworks

• prototype/scriptaculous
• Ext core
• jquery

All of those would be able to implement such effects, if you want the exact same effect let me know which framework you want to use I would provide a code snippet.

Answer 3

If you can use jQuery then you can write

animate

function on

hover

event.

In the animate function change the width and height to your desired one.
