The design pattern is a toaster popup. You can achive this using CSS
+ JavaScript, for example with jQuery. For example, you could use
this CSS to hide your message area:
.messages {
position:absolute;
z-index:50000;
top: -300px;
left: 300px;
width: 250px;
margin: 0 auto;
height:150px;
padding: 10px;
opacity:0;
}
This will position the box outside the screen area, you can then use
jquery to detect if it's on screen, if a message has been passed to
the view:
function($) {
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.message').find(function(), {
$(this).animate({top: 10, opacity: 1}, 1000, function() {
$(this).animate({ top: -150, opacity: 0 },
1000, function(){
$(this).remove();
});
});
});
});
})(jQuery);
This will animate the message on the screen, and then remove it again,
and then remove it from the DOM.
Hope that helps
