jQuery 1.2.x series LavaLamp plugin

LavaLamp is a plugin based on Guillermo Rauch and Ganesh Marwaha's previous plugins for mootools and jQuery 1.1.x respectively. Using the Sliding Doors CSS / Javascript technique, LavaLamp allows you to add nifty background motion hover effects to HTML lists using the Easing library.

Features include:

• both horizontal and vertical movement and stretching
• custom call back on completion
• easing library support
• speed adjust
• default LI element selection

I want to thank everyone who came before for starting this project!

LavaLamp was named by Stephan Beal

LavaLamp Demo Page

Download LavaLamp 1.2 package (includes all test files, Easing library 1.3 and a packed jQuery 1.2.3)

Notes:

I made some modifications to the original demos on Ganesh's site to show off the new features, some other non-lavaLamp-like things you can do with it, and added a way to test various easing mechanisms using the new jQuery 1.2.x series Easing library. I also changed the demo LavaLamp return function to return true so if someone chooses to pull this demo code directly into their project, the anchor links would work as expected.

Have fun! ~ Jolyon
