Interesting.. that’s almost exactly what is pointed out in the article.

@kae: Nice! Although the point here was to do it all on the client-side.

Interesting…if by “cool browsers” you mean “it only works in Firefox”.

This fails in Safari, Chrome, and IE7 on the PC.

Looks great and rendered fast for me on FF3 Mac.

Neat idea. First time you hit it, it seems rather slow. And the page is rather distorted.

I think the div method is still better with performance, plus no JavaScript is needed.
