[jQuery]Background image animation...very cool.

Check out this effect:

Here is the article. I am simply getting jquery fever. I used to have javascript resistance, avoiding it at all costs.

Wow... looks like Flash ...

Thanks for sharing Shane.

Even me, a HTML/CSS junkie is looking at jQuery. That looks slick. Will try it for sure.

The only thing I noticed is that it does not degrade 100%. I would expect it to degrade and work like the no script version, but it simply does not have any rollover if javascript is off. This is an important thing to watch out for with these cool effects, they don’t always degrade as expected. Still way cool though.

Very cool
I love jQuery too !

I’ll sure give it a try... I’ll check out this degrading problem, maybe a browser issue ?
With FF 3.0/Mac the noscript version works as expected... gave a quick look at the code the noscript test version has a "noscript" id, and I didn’t find reference to it in the js. Maybe you just need to add what’s necessary to make sure it degrades well. Should be doable...

Hey cw,

you could do the rollover with basic css to degrade nicely like normal.

For sure. The way to work is still to have it working without any bells and whistels..Then add the fancy stuff. This way it would be sure to degrade back to it’s simple form.

nice one, thanks for posting it.
