Any thoughts on using CSS hover properties to show larger images?

The scenario I'm envisioning is one where you'd have small thumbnails of samples, and hovering the mouse over them would invoke a hover state in which a larger version of that same image would appear..."Larger" meaning 400x600 pixels, or in that neighborhood.

Is this not wise from a coding perspective? How about usability? Do web page visitors not expect this kind of behavior..would it be confusing to them as to what they're supposed to do, or what to expect?

I'm wanting to use CSS to do what javascript rollovers do, only without the javascript.


thanks for any feedback or opinions.
