Amol,
    The only things that I've done with MySQL and MRTG is to parse the 
config file into a MySQL database.  Right now, I'm working on a cfgmaker 
that creates an XML file instead of a cfg file.  I've only been working 
on a version specific to what I need (there's alot of options with 
cfgmaker | I only use a few). 

    As far as the ZOOM-IN, I modified a version of 14all.cgi to 
"zoom-in" on a graph if it was clicked.  Technically, it didn't zoom-in, 
but instead opened a new page and displayed a LARGE image of the 
"clicked" graph.  It passed a larger width and height to RRDTool to 
create a big graph.

Let me know if you would like any help.  (I probably wouldn't be MUCH 
help, but I could try)
