Look at the excellent animation on this website. The man evidentally worked at yahoo for a while. He seems to have good skills.

I'm a javascript beginner and I don't have his skills.

Now, what I'm looking to do is achive the same animation that his site has AFTER the initial delay. I want the divs to animate into place and expand, and I will gladly accept a framework, such as Jquery, to handle the work.

This code is complicated. It's located in the base.js file. You'll see it.

I do NOT need flash sounds, like this site has. Just the animated divs.

Can you strip out the flash sounds and make this site work offline?

Even better, can you use any current framework to reproduce the same animation? His code is a one-off special and it has cross-browser issues, so I would prefer to do this in a conventional framework.

At this point, I cannot create new javascripts. All I can do is make simple modifications to existing scripts. Perhaps, if I spent all day, maybe I could get close to this animation using Jquery. But, it would take me 10 times as long as someone with skills!

What do you think?
