The SlideUp/SlideDown methods in jQuery are said to be the "Holy Grail" of vertical animations, because they are able to (reasonably) smoothly change the height of a matched element with a sliding motion, while allowing sibling elements to move in to the empty space. If you're unsure of what I mean, take a look at this jQuery-powered Q&A/FAQs script I cobbled together, and watch how the pretty-coloured bars move to leave no gaps, when other boxes are opened and closed;

Back in September last year, I wrote about making a content filter where items are filtered by class. A big limitation to this script is that it uses radio buttons to make selections, and as we all know, only one radio button can be selected at any time.

It uses CSS3 animation for visual effects and a small JavaScript function to time the slides.

Behind the scenes, the news displayed on the digital signage is managed with my free software, Fast Feed, so if you'd like to explore that option, ...
