Plugins

The plugins site is currently in development.

We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.

jQuery TickerType


The TickerType jQuery plugin allows you to animate a set of headlines or any other list of text items using a typewriter (or "write on") style animation.

Integrating this plugin requires no Javascript coding.
Simply include the .js files

<head>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.2.6.min.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.tickertype.js"></script>
</head>

and add a div tag with an ID of ticker-area containing an unordered list (list items may include simple HTML tags, such as links, <strong> and <em>.)

<div id="ticker-area">
  <ul>
    <li>Sed venenatis <a href="http://www.google.com">diam quis</a> lorem.</li>
    <li>Fusce <strong>vehicula</strong> iaculis felis. Phasellus congue!</li>
    <li>Morbi vitae enim vel <em>purus sollicitudin</em>.</li>
  </ul>
</div>
