[jQuery] New Plugin - JTicker (newsticker)
Hi, I've completed work on a new JQuery plugin. This one is called JTicker. It is a highly configurable newsticker plugin for JQuery. I was going to expand the JHeartbeat plugin a bit more before working on this, but I couldn't wait. (Besides, I wanted to use JTicker to replace an old Javascript/IFrame newsticker I had used for one of my company's pages.) Here's the URL, let me know what you think of it: http://www.jasons-toolbox.com/JTicker/ I might need some guidence on how to make one big improvement to it. Right now you are limited to one ticker per page. I want to be able to add multiple tickers on a single page, but every time I do it the last ticker overwrites the earlier ones. How can you have multiple instances of a JQuery plugin running? Thanks, -Jason Levine ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Multiple tickers are possible with mine (but there is sometimes problems with not hiding the previous item). ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Re: [jQuery] New Plugin - JTicker (newsticker)
I like that as well. One suggestion: to implement a "freeze on hover", as in Sam's plugin. This will give the reader a chance to absorb a headline that may be soon to fade away. --DIZZLE malsup wrote: > >> http://www.jasons-toolbox.com/JTicker/ > > Love the RSS support. > > ___ > jQuery mailing list > discuss@jquery.com > http://jquery.com/discuss/ > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/New-Plugin---JTicker-%28newsticker%29-tf2351454.html#a6548827 Sent from the JQuery mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
Re: [jQuery] New Plugin - JTicker (newsticker)
Thanks. I was originally going to require the data to be in specially formatted DIV tags, but then I decided that the RSS method was better. I still might add an AJAX method (make an AJAX call each "turn" and display the result) and a "collection of DIVs" method, but I want to get the RSS method working right first. - Original Message From: Mike Alsup <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Jason Levine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; jQuery Discussion.

Re: [jQuery] New Plugin - JTicker (newsticker)
Good idea. I've done that. I also added a JTicker configuration helper to the description page. -Jason Levine http://www.jasons-toolbox.com/ - Original Message From: dizzledorf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: discuss@jquery.com Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2006 11:33:53 AM Subject: Re: [jQuery] New Plugin - JTicker (newsticker) I like that as well.
