Rebecca Murphey. Durham, North Carolina I am a JavaScript application developer and a frequent speaker on the topic of code organization and best practices at events around the world. I authored the learning site jQuery Fundamentals, contributed to the jQuery Cookbook from O’Reilly Media, served as a technical reviewer for David Herman’s Effective JavaScript, and created the TXJS conference. I have also created and contributed to several open-source projects. I was instrumental in getting deferreds and promises introduced to jQuery 1.5; I created the js-assessment project, a test-driven tool for assessing a developer’s JavaScript skills; and I contributed key modules to the Johnny Five library for using JavaScript to interact with Arduinos.

We measured our mettle based on our ability to wrangle IE6 into submission or achieve pixel perfection across browsers. Many members of the community -- myself included -- lacked traditional programming experience. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript -- usually in the form of jQuery -- were self-taught skills.

MENU: Animated Text & Icon Menu w/ jQuery. Today we want to show you how to create a slick menu with a nice animation feature on hover. The idea is to make some elements slide out, change and animate the background color of the item and then slide the elements back in with a different color. View demoDownload source The inspiration for this menu comes from the website of the Pelican Miami Beach Hotel: The icons are taken from the incredible Noun Project that “collects, organizes and adds to the highly recognizable symbols that form the world’s visual language, so we may share them in a fun and meaningful way”. Visit the website of The Noun Project. So, let’s get started! The Markup Our HTML will be an unordered list where each list item will contain an anchor element with the three elements inside that we’ll animate: The data-hovercolor will be used to set the color of the text on hover.
Now, let’s make it stylish! The CSS Remember, we always reset our CSS with a reset.css that we’ll add to our main style. Filter Functionality with CSS3. Using the general sibling combinator and the :checked pseudo-class, we can toggle states of other elements by checking a checkbox or a radio button.
In this tutorial we will be exploring those CSS3 properties by creating a experimental portfolio filter that will toggle the states of items of a specific type. View demo Download source The idea is inspired by Roman Komarov’s brilliant “Filtering elements without JS” experiment where he uses checkboxes and radio buttons for filtering colored shapes. The beautiful Dribbble shots used in the demos are by Mike from Creative Mints.
The Markup Let’s start with the markup. The unordered list will contain all the portfolio items as anchors with an image and a span. The CSS We’ll be going through three example effects, but first, let’s take a look at the common style. I will omit all the vendor prefixes, but you will, of course, find them in the files. The main section container will have a specific width: Let’s move on to the item list: Example 1 Example 2. Creative CSS3 Animation Menus. Being in the mood for experimenting with CSS3, I'd like to show you some creative menu hover effects in today's tutorial.

View demo Download source Today we’ll experiment some more with the adjacent and general sibling combinator and the :checked pseudo-class. Using hidden inputs and labels, we will create an accordion that will animate the content areas on opening and closing. There are many variations of CSS-only accordions around, most of which are implemented using the :target pseudo-class. So, let start! Please note: the result of this tutorial will only work as intended in browsers that support the CSS3 properties in use. The Markup We will be going through an example that uses checkboxes where one content section is open by default (the input needs to be ‘checked’). Note that we need to give each input an ID which we will then use in the for attribute of the label. Each article will have a class that will help us determine to which height we it to expand to.
