Dragan - why do you have to wait for 1.2? I'm really excited about your plugin and can't wait to see the final result that works like Apples all the way. It's very nice work you are doing - keep it up! /Mikael On Aug 5, 6:53 pm, Dragan Krstic [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: @Bernd I see...

@Mikeal Sorry Mikael. My script use step function in .animation() method. John informed us not to use this function, because it will be changed in version 1.2. So, if you like it, you can customize my script. I would be glad to help you. 2007/8/6, mikael [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Dragan - why do you have to wait for 1.2?

Of course, you can look at my example, witch more reasambly Apple.com menu. It's not plugin, but I'll make it soon http://www.bydot.net/hoveracc/hoveracc_4.htm -- Dragan Krstić krdr http://krdr.ebloggy.com/
[jQuery] Re: New Plugin: HoverAccordion
Hi Dragan, Of course, you can look at my example, witch more reasambly Apple.com menu. the menu I was referring to is on the top right-hand side of the Mac page, whereas yours is referring to the menu on the lower left-hand side. That particular accordion is a little different as the item that activates the accordion is actually below its content - the images in that case. So it's actually upside down from a regular accordion. It would be a nice challenge to build a plugin that handles both scenarios without too much CSS tweaking. Bernd

You'll see on the apple site there is no bump at all. It just slides without effecting any other areas of the menu. I think this is because we are showing/hiding heights and the apple site is using absolute/static/relative positioning to get the effects. Thoughts? Hi there, after John showed us a nice workaround using the animate function in this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-en/browse_thread/thread/728514d88941417a/ I have done some more work on my plugin, so now there's no more bumpin' around. Also, the height of the accordion can now be calculated automatically based on the largest section without fixing the height based on CSS. In addition, I fixed the bug Gilles noted about elements not responding sometimes, especially when clicking instead of hovering over a main item. And finally, I updated the Mac site-lookalike example to emulate the effect with the first and last accordion header changing according to their position. The updated code and examples are available at http://berndmatzner.de/jquery/hoveraccordion/ Cheerio, Bernd
[jQuery] Re: New Plugin: HoverAccordion
Cool, this could be very useful! I've noticed Apple's menu that behaves this way lately, glad to see someone implement it, and it appears to be a good usable implementation.

[jQuery] Re: New Plugin: HoverAccordion
One suggestion, that no one has seemed to be able to tackle in the jQuery Accordion making community, is the slight bump that happens at the bottom of the accordion. You notice it slightly on your first example but can see it a lot on your second example. You'll see on the apple site there is no bump at all. It just slides without effecting any other areas of the menu. I think this is because we are showing/hiding heights and the apple site is using absolute/static/relative positioning to get the effects. Thoughts?
[jQuery] Re: New Plugin: HoverAccordion
Nice work, i see some errors however, especially when going from top to bottom, sometimes the last item does not expand even tough there is an arrow there. -- Gilles On 26 jun, 13:34, Bernd Matzner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I'm really excited: My first try at building a jQuery plugin!

I am also seeing the issue Gilles mentioned, but if you could hunt that down, this will be awesome. I have had several half-hearted attempts to at create this myself but couldn't get around certain glitches in how it behaves. Yours is far closer to perfection though. Nice code too. Joel.
[jQuery] Re: New Plugin: HoverAccordion
Very nicely done. I especially like the menu version. You seem to have covered all the bases on that one. On the regular accordion version, I think it would be best if you could find a way to have auto-resize panels so that text from a top panel does not overflow into the panel label of the one below it. Great job! -- Sapphire On Tuesday 26 June 2007 06:34:32 am Bernd Matzner wrote: Hello, I'm really excited: My first try at building a jQuery plugin!
