JavaScript - Javascript Div/css Slide Effect
hi all hope someone can help me out here. The code below i found online and it works well but I would like it to slide rather than jump into posistion. Anyone know how I can adapt this or have another way of doing it?? what i like about this script is that it wont allow you to go beyond the bounds of the content when pressing the forward and back links but the transition needs a nice slide!!!.
Example of how it works here Link Code: <head> <style> #contents{ position: relative; top: 0; left: 0; width: 786px; height: auto;} #scrollable{ overflow: hidden; width: 786px; height: 400px; border: 1px solid black;} </style> <script> var t = 0; function myback() { t += 786; with(document.getElementById("contents")) { if (t > 0) t = 0; if(style) style.left = t + "px"; else setAttribute("style", "left: " + t + "px"); } } function myforward() { t -= 786; with(document.getElementById("contents")) { if(t < -clientWidth) t = -clientWidth; if(style) style.left = t + "px"; else setAttribute("style", "left: " + t + "px"); } } </script> </head> <body> <table> <tr> <td rowspan="2"> <div id="scrollable"><div id="contents"> <table width="1572" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5"> <tr> <td width="776" valign="top" bgcolor="#FFFF99">Some text!!!</td> <td width="776" valign="top" bgcolor="#66FFFF"> Some Text!!!</td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> </td> </tr> </table> <a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="myback()">back</a> <a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="myforward()">forward</a> </body> Hope this is clear. Thanks. Similar TutorialsI am using ASP.NET and AJAX here. basically what I want is a nice little slide effect to show the next batch of images in a mini slide show. Example: << prev [image1] [image2] [image3] [image4] Next >> << prev [image5] [image6] [image7] [image8] Next >> so when the user presses next or previous, it will SLIDE to the left/right. the databinding is done at the server side end and in an update panel so it does an async postback when they press next/prev. how can I go about doing this type of effect? I found a very intressting JS function at this webpage: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...edcollapse.htm I wonder if someone knows wihich part from the JS-file i should change/delete so i only get the fade at exempel 1 and not the slide/rolling effect. I only want the fade.

What I mean is instead of loading a page when you click a link, all pages of the website are loaded at first, and then when a link is clicked, the corresponding page slides onto the screen. The navigation menu remains unchanged (except for dropdown menus) throughout everything. This is a perfect example of what I'm looking for: www.mimeartist.com Can anyone point me to the right direction? I tried to search for this but didn't come up with too many great results, and I searched the jQuery documentation and wasn't able to find a slider feature. Thanks. hi guys I am looking at this template: http://www.csstemplatesfree.org/prev...ero/index.html I think the sliding at the top happens way too frequently. How can I slow it down? I think it would be better if the slides change once every 6 seconds. I used the slideshow technique described here and was successful: http://www.javascriptkit.com/howto/show2.shtml But when I try to repeat the process to add additional images to the show, it doesn't work. It sticks to the three original images. Any tips as to how to add to this? thanks!! Hy every one, i need help .I have a program made in visual c++ witch detect motion and makes a file.jpg every time when detects something. I would like to make a web pages witch makes the autorefresh with the last image generated by this program. How do i do that with javascript? I think i must declare a golbal variable witch kepps the path to the most younger file, or to make a list witch keeps all the images and sort it ascended but i don't know how to make this in java script. Can enyone help me ?Thanks in advance i want to create a slide show with javascript, but i don't know how to write a code, i have try full screen image slideshow in javascriptkit.com, but i don't know how to resize, not full screen because i want to insert another think, not only a slide show. how can i make an edit with full screen image slideshow coding?or is there someone can help me with the slide show in javascript, but with fadingtime, not an instant change?
I'm making an JS accordion and I just miss the final step. That is - say: I click menu 1, content 1 slides down (shows up). After that, I click menu 2, content 2 slides down but content 1 of menu 1 just display: none (abruptly disappers) but not slides up. For the slide up effect, I wrote a function called cutHeight(). The cutHeight function works perfectly independently but not coherent with the accordion function. Is there anything wrong with my scripts?

I feel like its most likely an easy fix which has escaped me over the last couple of days. Basically, I'm using tabbed navigation panes in the center column of a 3-column CSS layout. I'm wanting to place a functional slide out menu in EACH tab. As of now, I have one working perfectly in the intial tab, but I'm unable to achieve the same functionality in the remaining tabs. I can get the content loaded, but it is completely expanded...losing the collapsing/slide out action(s). I have added code for the content to be loaded into the 2nd tab, but have left the rest blank. I figure if the issue for tab 2 is resolved, I can apply it to the rest of the tabs. I am 99% sure the issue resides in the slide-out-menu-new.js file, but I can't seem to figure out where the functionality is being lost. Please assist if you would like. It would be GREATLY appreciated...this is the last hurdle I have before adding real content to the site. Please find the zip file containing all associated code/files by visiting the link below (a quick page posted for storage purposes only). http://www.truckerslifeline.com/siteHelp Thanks!

I know HTML, but dont know javscript too well, I know some to be able to change some aspects. I have found some code online that allws me to change the background image with each click of the links. the effect I now want to create is the effect that as you clikc on teh link and the new text appears, the old one drops down andthe new one pops up from the bottom into place. and you have a choice of either a big block ont eh right or a small strip on the bottom depending ont he page. what is this effect called. and does any one know where i might be able to get soem code for it from so i can insert it into my page I hope all this makes sense the site is http://www.peponi-lamu.com many thanks Quote: http://codecanyon.net/item/html-befo...preview/153778 http://codecanyon.net/item/beforeaft...preview/529151 http://www.catchmyfame.com/2009/06/2...eafter-plugin/ I need this effect, I will explain below The first, we have if we slide on the left. when we slide on the right if we slide to END the result will be: OR It's use jquery plugin, I want to find the same things with only javascript, not use jquery. Because, I'm use it on ipod, iphone, android. It's not allow jquery. I'm really need it. please, help me. Thanks for your time Hi, I'm kind of new to javascript and am an undergraduate studying a FdSc in web tech which encompasses all of these kind of languages (PHP, Python, HTML, CSS, Javascript and so on). Javascript is the one that I'm focusing on first and whilst I have a solid understanding of the mark up languages I'm struggling to combine the two. For the simple stuff like like the theory behind variables, functions and so on it's not a problem, but what is a problem is duplicating this kind of effect as seen on www.yidio.com The feature with the vertical menu that changes when you hover over a TV show name which then changes the content (i.e. the image and text - essentialy the HTML content) is bloody neat in my opinion and I'd like to be able to re-create it. I've also noticed the same effect is in place on the boxes at www.ebuyer.com and on the story navigation menu at www.sciencedaily.com. How can I do this? I have all the HTML and CSS source code in place but just no javascript. I've approached my lecturers about it and they've told me about jquery and javascript libraries but this still doesn't help me in being able to achieve this effect. would someone be able to explain and help me? Thanks Nick C Never mind. I found a solution to get it working. I still don't know why it occurred, but I don't have the time to fulfill my curiosity like I could when I was a teenager. Hi, I'm attempting to add the following functionality to my site. Essentially, two images are displayed with a link "View More". The user clicks "View More" and the two images are replaced by two new images. This can be repeated as required. It's a basic form of slideshow I guess, but after some googling all the tutorials etc available seem to be more aimed at fully blown shows, whereas I believe my problem is much more simple. The images are contained in a directory and are numbered like so: img1.jpg, img2.jpg. img3.jpg and so on. the code I came up with so far is PHP Code: <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"> start = '<img src="gallery/img'; end = '.jpg" width="150" height="200" />'; function getImage() { var n = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 10); // i have 10 images var FirstImg=(start+n+end); var n = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 10); var SecondImg=(start+n+1+end); } /* so now I think I have two variables: FirstImg = <img src="gallery/img1.jpg" width="150" height="200" /> SecondImg = <img src="gallery/img4.jpg" width="150" height="200" /> but i'm now unsure how i'd go about displaying this on the page. ideally the HTML generated would be: <div class="pics"> <p><FirstImg></p> <p><SecondImg></p> <a href="#" onClick="return getImage()">View More</a> </div> */ </script> Am I on the right lines here or am I way off?? Appreciate some pointers. thanks a lot.

I'm trying to get a mootools plugin to work with a slide in/slide out javascript using multiple divs. Here's the page: http://pawsdogs.com/test/Site/work2.htm The mootools code (Noobslide) slides a main image on the right when you click thumbnails on the left, which are wrapped in a thumb mask using CSS. The first row of thumbnails works perfectly, but when it's passed on to the next div the mask isn't passed on and the effect breaks down. Thanks so much if anyone can help! Here's the html: Code: <li><a href="#" id="slidecontrol_2" class="slidecontrol">Click Here</a> <div id="slidedisplay_2" style="display:none;"> <div id="thumbs7"> <div class="thumbs"> <div><img src="images2/img4.jpg" alt="Photo Thumb" /></div> <div><img src="images2/img5.jpg" alt="Photo Thumb" /></div> <div><img src="images2/img6.jpg" alt="Photo Thumb" /></div> </div> <div id="thumbs_mask7"></div> <p id="thumbs_handles7"> <span></span> <span></span> <span></span> </p> </div> </div></li> <li><a href="#" id="slidecontrol_3" class="slidecontrol">asdf</a> <div id="slidedisplay_3" style="display:none;"> <div id="thumbs7"> <div class="thumbs"> <div><img src="images2/img2.jpg" alt="Photo Thumb" /></div> <div><img src="images2/img3.jpg" alt="Photo Thumb" /></div> </div> <div id="thumbs_mask7"></div> <p id="thumbs_handles7"> <span></span> <span></span> </p> </div> </div> The javascript: Code: $(document).ready(function () { $('a.slidecontrol').click(function(){ var $this = $(this); var divID = $this.attr("id").replace("slidecontrol_", "slidedisplay_"); var $div = $('#'+divID); if ($div.is(':visible')) { $div.slideUp(500); } else { $div.slideDown(500); } return false; }); }); The CSS: Code: #thumbs7{ position:relative; width:200px; clear:both; height:41px; overflow:hidden; } #thumbs7 .thumbs, #thumbs_handles7, #thumbs_mask7{ position:absolute; top:0; width:100%; height:41px; } #thumbs7 .thumbs div, #thumbs_handles7 span{ display:block; width:60px; height:41px; margin:0; float:left; cursor:pointer; } #thumbs7 .thumbs div img{ width:54px; float:right; } #thumbs_handles7 span{ background:url(../images2/thumb_invisible.gif) no-repeat; } #thumbs_mask7{ width:1200px; background:url(../images2/thumbs_mask.gif) no-repeat center top; } Hi everyone, I have a set of "buttons" that expand/collapse information onClick, using Javascript that look like this... Here is the CSS I used to create the look of the "buttons"... Code: div.btn_workshops { background-image: url(../images/btn_workshops_mid.gif); background-position: top left; background-repeat: repeat-x; cursor: pointer; height: 22px; margin-bottom: 1px; width: 330px; } div.btn_workshops_lt { background-image: url(../images/btn_workshops_lt.gif); background-position: 0 0; background-repeat: no-repeat; height: 100%; width: 100%px; } div.btn_workshops_rt { background-image: url(../images/btn_workshops_rt.gif); background-position: 100% 0; background-repeat: no-repeat; height: 100%; padding: 3px 12px 0px 12px; width: 100%px; } .hide { display: none; visibility: hidden; } .show { display: block; visibility: visible; } Here is the HTML that contains the "buttons" and the text that will appear when you click on the "buttons" to expand them. Keep in mind that everything collapses when you click on any of the "buttons" a second time. This is done, using Javascript.

Code: //Expand Workshops function expandWorkshops(obj) { var workshop = document.getElementById(obj) if ( workshop.className != "hide" ) { workshop.className = 'hide' } else { workshop.className = 'show' } } Here is my problem. I added the downward, red arrows to give users a "hint" that the "buttons" will do some action if you click on them. By default, I have the arrows facing down to show that information will appear below the "button." Then once a user has expanded a block of information, I want the downward, red arrow to change to an upward, red arrow. I currently have that working, but it is only working "one way." In other words, when you click on any one of the "buttons," the arrow does change, but it does not change back to the default when you click on a "button" a second time to collapse the information. Here is what it looks like with one of the "buttons" expanded. As you can see, I was successfully able to change the downward arrow to an upward arrow after the information expanded below. This helps show that the text can collapse upward if you click on the "button" a second time. Again, my problem is I am unable to get the upward arrow to return to its default, downward arrow appearance. This is what it currently looks like when you click on the "button" a second time to collapse the information. As you can see, my expand/collapse effect works, and the text goes away, but I am unable to get the upward arrow to change back to the default, downward arrow. This is the function that I added to my JavaScript, which successfully changes the arrow from down to up onClick, but fails to return the arrow image to default when you click again. Code: function flipArrow() { if ( document.images("arrow1").src = "static/images/arrow_down.gif" ) { document.images("arrow1").src = 'static/images/arrow_up.gif' } else if ( document.images("arrow1").src = "static/images/arrow_up.gif" ) { document.images("arrow1").src = 'static/images/arrow_down.gif' } } This is the full JavaScript that includes the expand/collapse effect and the unsuccessful swap arrow effect so you can everything together. Code: //Expand Workshops function expandWorkshops(obj) { var workshop = document.getElementById(obj) if ( workshop.className != "hide" ) { workshop.className = 'hide' } else { workshop.className = 'show' } } function flipArrow() { if ( document.images("arrow1").src = "static/images/arrow_down.gif" ) { document.images("arrow1").src = 'static/images/arrow_up.gif' } else if ( document.images("arrow1").src = "static/images/arrow_up.gif" ) { document.images("arrow1").src = 'static/images/arrow_down.gif' } } The flipArrow function I wrote is just my latest attempt. Believe me, I've tried all kinds of things, including "if else," "if else if," "if." I've tried Variables, getElementById, and switched out all different kinds of methods and ID's. No matter what, I can't seem to get any combination to work. Don't get me wrong. One of the previous methods I tried might have been the correct one, but I most likely did not write it correctly. I am no JavaScript expert at all. The code that I currently have was partly found on the Internet and partly modified by me after hours and hours of research and troubleshooting. I'm very proud that I was able to get this far, but I'm getting to the point where I am spending all day and night, every day, trying to figure this out. I always search forums before posting in them. This is probably the second time I've ever posted in a forum. I hope it helps. Sorry to ramble on. I just want to make sure you have as many details and samples as possible so I do not get any questions or confusion. Thanks for your help! |
