It displays a floating div with your custom message for 5-10 seconds on the top of the screen and fades out. There are options to change the duration of the message, set the message as a sticky until it is closed by the user, position options, and animation options. It is useful for showing quick informational messages such as "Saving changes", "Update", and "Delete".

I've created a quick tutorial on adding this jQuery plugin to your app.]]> http://albertech.net/2011/04/jgrowl-jquery-plugin-for-displaying-webapp-messages/feed/ 0 http://albertech.net/2010/06/using-jquery-for-setting-focus-on-an-input-box/ http://albertech.net/2010/06/using-jquery-for-setting-focus-on-an-input-box/#comments Wed, 09 Jun 2010 17:26:35 +0000 admin http://albertech.net/?p=419 http://albertech.net/2010/06/using-jquery-for-setting-focus-on-an-input-box/feed/ 1 http://albertech.net/2009/09/webvpn-jquery/ http://albertech.net/2009/09/webvpn-jquery/#comments Tue, 22 Sep 2009 17:42:50 +0000 admin http://albertech.net/?p=267 http://albertech.net/2009/09/webvpn-jquery/feed/ 7 http://albertech.net/2009/02/review-jquery-dropdown-menu/ http://albertech.net/2009/02/review-jquery-dropdown-menu/#comments Mon, 09 Feb 2009 01:00:06 +0000 admin http://albertech.net/?p=81 jdMenu that runs off the jQuery library. It turned out to work great for me, as long as the level of menus is maxed at 2. I prefer using scripts that use the jQuery library in order to simplify the maintenance of scripts and to speed up development of Ajax scripts. From my experience, modern dropdown menus should only use <ul><li> hierarchy tags to make it easy to maintain. As long as the coder knows HTML, they should be able to modify the dropdown menu.
