Sexy Page Curls

Category: Component, jQuery

<p>

I thought that sexy curls were not related to technology, but Elliott Kember packaged a nice and easy page curl plugin using jQuery.

All you need to do is:

HTML:
  1.  
  2. <script type="text/javascript" src="turn/turn.js"></script>
  3. <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="turn/turn.css">
  4.  
  5. $(document).ready(function(){
  6.     $( '#target' ).fold();
  7. });
  8. </script>
  9.

I created a version for Green Any Site that opens/closes automagically onMouseOver/Out and looks great. As a bonus, it also works in IE.

Check it out at Green Any Site.

If you don’t want yours to always open automatically, you might want to detect IE, and only make it automatic in those cases… Else manual opening.

Ha I was just thinking of doing this the other day. You know we have progress when you just have to think something and someone builds it. It needs a demo of using the curl as a page/slide transition.
