The Dynamics of Scrolling By Drew McCormack There has been quite a bit of discussion the last few days about the momentum-based scrolling that Apple uses on the iPhone. The discussion has largely been fanned by John Gruber’s Daring Fireball blog. This got me wondering how difficult it would be to reproduce Apple’s momentum scrolling on your own in JavaScript. Physics When I started working on the problem, I was all set to tackle it like the Physicist I was trained to be. I identified several different phases of scrolling, each of which required different equations of motion: Scrolling with the finger on the screen.Scrolling with the finger on the screen beyond the end of the viewable content (ie rubberbanding).Momentum scrolling with no finger on the screen.Decelerating from momentum scrolling after passing the end of the content (ie first half of bounce).Scrolling back to the start of the content after overshooting (ie second half of bounce). Source Code You can test the scrolling here (Photo by TimboDon). Algorithm
jQuery: The Write Less, Do More, JavaScript Library zefhemel/persistencejs - GitHub Colortip – a jQuery Tooltip Plugin Martin Angelov In this tutorial we are going to write a simple jQuery tooltip plugin. It is going to convert the title attributes of elements withing your page, into a series of colorful tooltips. Six color themes are available, so you can easily match it with the rest of your design. Step 1 – XHTML The plugin we are about to write today, works by converting the title of an element on the page to a structure of three spans, which form a tooltip, displayed on hover. <a href=" class="blue" title="Go to Tutorialzine">Tutorialzine</a> jQuery will convert it to the markup you can see below. <a class="blue colorTipContainer" href=" <span class="colorTip" style="margin-left: -60px;">Go to Tutorialzine <span class="pointyTipShadow"></span><span class="pointyTip"></span></span></a> Notice that the first block of code above specifies a “blue” class name. Step 2 – CSS colortip-1.0-jquery.css – Part 1 Making a triangular shape with a div

Home CSS drop-shadows without images Drop-shadows are easy enough to create using pseudo-elements. It’s a nice and robust way to progressively enhance a design. This post is a summary of the technique and some of the possible appearances. Demo: CSS drop-shadows without images Known support: Firefox 3.5+, Chrome 5+, Safari 5+, Opera 10.6+, IE 9+ I’ll be looking mainly at a few details involved in making this effect more robust. After a bit of back-and-forth on Twitter with Simurai, and proposing a couple of additions to Divya’s and Matt’s demos using jsbin, I felt like documenting and explaining the parts that make up this technique. The basic technique There is no need for extra markup, the effect can be applied to a single element. The pseudo-elements need to be positioned and given explicit or implicit dimensions. The next step is to add a CSS3 box-shadow and apply CSS3 transforms. One of the pseudo-elements then needs to be positioned on the other side of the element and rotated in the opposite direction.
