Windy: A Plugin for Swift Content Navigation. Posted at Codrops by Pedro Botelho Windy is a jQuery plugin that allows a rapid navigation through a pile of items using some CSS 3D transforms and transitions.
The effect of a continuous navigation flow reminds of a deck of cards or sheets flying away, hence the name. This plugin idea is inspired by the CSS shaders examples as shown in the CSS shaders Flipbook video by Adobe. There are several options available, including defining the range of spreading the items when navigating, speed (CSS transitions), adding custom navigations, etc. For browsers that don’t support CSS 3D transforms or transitions, there will be a simple fallback, i.e. normal navigation of the items (appear/disappear). For using the plugin, an unordered list with the class wi-container is expected: The plugin can be called like this: The boundaries define the values for the "dispersing" or "flying away" of the items.
The following public methods are available to use in combination with navigation elements: View Demo. Making a Mosaic Slideshow With jQuery & CSS. Posted at Tutorialzine by Martin Angelov When designing a product page, it is often necessary to present a number of images in a succession, also known as a slideshow. With the raise of the jQuery library and its numerous plugins, there is an abundance of ready-made solutions which address this problem.
However, to make a lasting impression to your visitors, you need to present them with something they have not seen before. Today we are making a jQuery & CSS mosaic gallery. Mosaic, because it will feature an interesting tile transition effect when moving from one slide to another. The XHTML The mosaic effect of the slideshow is achieved by dividing the original image into smaller parts. The div with the mosaic-slide class name is added to the page by jQuery after the transition() JavaScript function is executed (we will come back to this in the third step). The CSS To make this effect work (and most importantly look good), we have to add a few lines of CSS. The jQuery View Demo. Elastislide - A Responsive jQuery Carousel Plugin. Posted at Codrops by Mary Lou With the responsive awakening in web design it becomes important to not only take care of the visual part of a website but also of the functionality.
Elastislide is a responsive jQuery carousel that will adapt its size and its behavior in order to work on any screen size. Inserting the carousel’s structure into a container with a fluid width will also make the carousel fluid. In a carousel, one could think that simply making its container "shorter" will solve the problem on smaller screens, but in some cases (e.g. when we have bigger images) it might be reasonable to resize the items as well.
Elastislide uses the jQuery Touchwipe Plugin which allows you to obtain the wipe event on an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch.

In the process, you’ll see the concept of Progressive Enhancement in action. Setting the foundations The most important part of any good web component is a solid HTML structure. A semantic foundation means that your content will be web accessible in virtually all browser clients.

There is also no markup for the left and right arrow controls, which we will insert into the DOM later on using JavaScript. Tip: Test web accessibility first and often. Styling the slideshow Left and right arrow CSS Javascript The theory Creating some objects. Fullscreen Gallery with Thumbnail Flip. Posted at Codrops by Mary Lou In this tutorial we will create a fullscreen gallery with jQuery. The idea is to have a thumbnail of the currently shown fullscreen image on the side that flips when navigating through the images.
The big image will slide up or down depending where we are navigating to. We will add navigation controls for the mousewheel and for keys. The thumbnail will have a zoom and and a fullscreen option, making the image in the background appear in fullscreen mode or as a complete image, resized to fit in the page. We will be using Flip! , a jQuery plugin by Lucca Manno that flips elements. And we will also be using the jQuery Mousewheel Plugin by Brandon Aaron. The beautiful images are by talented Polina Efremova. Let’s get started with the markup!

Image Wall with jQuery. Posted at Codrops by Mary Lou Today we want to show you how to create a neat image wall with jQuery. The idea is to scatter some thumbnails with different sizes on the page and make a ribbon slide in when we click on the picture. The ribbon will show some description next to the picture and when clicking again on the thumbnail, the ribbon will close and open again with a large version of the image. To scatter the images we will be using the CSS3 child selector property and the jQuery Masonry plugin by David DeSandro. The beautiful photos are by Mark Sebastian and you can see his Flickr photostream here.
Let’s start with the HTML structure. The Markup The HTML structure is pretty straightforward: we will have a wrapper for our unordered list of images and their descriptions and a ribbon element where we will add a closing span and a help text span: The data-img will tell us the path to the full image which will insert dynamically into the ribbon div.
