Springy - A force directed graph layout algorithm in JavaScript. Trends in interactive design 2013 jQuery – Dynamically Adding Form Elements @ Charlie Griefer You know the situation. You have a form with ‘x’ number of text inputs. Eventually, you realize ‘x’ may not be enough for all users. But in the interest of keeping the page clean, you don’t want to arbitrarily continue to add these elements. What you really want to do is show a minimal amount initially, and then give the user the option of adding as many more (within reason) as that particular user might need. Why create any DOM elements that aren’t going to be used? First, you’ll want to see it in action. Let’s take a look at the code first, and then break it down. The Markup Let’s look at what’s going on, starting with the form itself: Very straightforward markup. Next up is another div that holds 2 button elements, each with a unique id attribute. That’s it for our markup. jQuery – The First Step Moving to the jQuery code itself.

Text Opening Sequence with CSS Animations A simple and fun text opening sequence effect with blurry letters using CSS animations. View demo Download source Today I want to show you how to create a fun little typography effect with CSS animations and text shadows. Maybe you know those eerie opening sequences of movie trailers where some text is being faded in on a dark background. After seeing Introducting Briefs (which is not a terror movie trailer but a preview for an interesting app) I got inspired for recreating the effect using CSS. The idea is to blur text and make it appear with a rotation while animating the space between the letters. So, let’s do it. Please note: this is highly experimental and only works as intended in browsers that support the respective CSS properties. The idea is to have a couple of sentences fade in with the aforementioned effect, so we’ll want to wrap every appearing bit into an h2: Remember, this is just a experimental effect; let’s not be too strict with markup best practices :) And the last one?
