- Zipp425, on 10/12/2007, -4/+23Hello future flash replacement...
Aside from the fact that it doesnt work properly in IE, this is pretty neat, and it uses mootools, Yay. - appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14Until I get a digg-proof server:
http://tangelo.blueorbs.com/share/slidelist5f5cb.zip - KibibyteBrain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Apparently while super lightweight and efficient, not enough so to save his poor server...
Pretty cool script, but again, be sure to accommodate javascript deficient browsers too when it comes to basic features like navigation. - appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Zipp425, any chance you are using IE7? Works perfectly for me on IE6.
- indraneel24, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8runs fine in IE tab. but i have IE6.
- Terc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Good try with dugg-mirror, unfortunately, it didn't get everything (broken css I believe)
- appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Mate, the fact that I couldn't test it with IE7 messed it up.
I'm pretty sure that it'll work perfectly with one or two changes, I keep the statement that it's cross browser...
Thanks for the (hater) bug report. - TheActionCombo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Yet you still took the time to reply...
- kcpwnsgman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3IE7 works, but takes a while to load and doesn't look as good
- xXRobbyXx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3fancy :) i like
- appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3When Google can crawl your flash website, screen readers users can see it, you can bookmark pages or even use your back/forward button, and when it's not owned by a closed software company like Adobe, I'll use flash for my sites.
- 98acura, on 10/12/2007, -6/+9Point being... Whoever wrote this tutorial, needs to read a tutorial on web server setup..
- appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3See, the fact that 99,999999% of the flash sites fail at doing those things indicates me that your check list must be somehow.... mm wrong?
Get real. Or it's either really difficult, makes the developer waste time, or 99,99999% of the flash developers are dumb.
Get real. I've never ended up in a Flash site from Google. - manfrin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Guillermo, do you remember me? Mike Manfrin, you worked on a fazed script for me?
Small world... - Drgn547, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5who is "everyone else?" If you can make the flash menu accessible for all to read, and make it degrade well...go for it...meanwhile I'll stick with the unobtrusive javascript that degrades to basic text...good for everyone...even screen readers
- appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Well, 15k of the highly flexible mootools, plus 2k of this highly flexible script is pretty lightweight to me. Its use is not only limited to menus.
Naturally, you don't use the whole library just for a menu, but also for ajax, more effects, etc.
If you look at digg javascript code, you'll find at least 200k. And I don't see anything impressive. - aaron411, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Works for me.
- DonutGuy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3You need a browser that supports CSS first
- crawfishsoul, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2You should have taken your own advice when you thought about writing that pointless comment.
- Deranged, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3theotheragentm:
If you click www.duggmirror.com from a link on this page, it goes to the same place you linked to. Try it out before taking your time to find out it's of no use. - appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@tornado42
Basically, and I think I mention it on the article (though it's down and I haven't been able to do anything about it so far), you need Dom, Fx.Style/s and if you want custom transitions Fx.Transitions. If you plan to use the domready method you'll also need Window.Base - judicar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yeah it'll be a Flash replacement as soon as someone makes a load meter that can count .. 1% .. 2% ... realllly slow Just like Flash!
- eurichunt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is unusally diggable, nice one!
- LukeEsntlPdx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Excellent!
Now make a javascript that converts videos into css. :p - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Saw this on mootools forums earlier today, really nice menu.
- appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Try this as well

If anyone can mirror it, it'd be great for now - foshizlak, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2You could build this under less than 1kb in flash. This thing is about 50k - what is the point ?
- ascalonx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1wow...that's a really neat effect.
- appletalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Have noticed that too. It seems mootools' domready is not quite being called upon dom load. I'll look into that.
- GawtMilk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Looks good. The dark fill image didn't load right away, but I guess a simple image-preload hack in your CSS would take care of that.
The "Click to see HTML / CSS code" links are also spiffy. - gettarat, on 11/24/2008, -0/+1the zip worked on safari and firefox2 on osx 10.4.9

(Before you digg me down, I'm not claiming mine is better.) - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1http://duggmirror.com/programming/CSS_Javascript_power_Fancy_menu/
Duggmirror kind of rapes the text though... - billizm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I learned a new word today, "positionate".
From the article:
"...we’d have to do some hard, useless calculations Javascript side to positionate it correctly."
That aside, it is a great article. =) - tornado42, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2@Appletalk: For those of us already using mootools, and too lazy to compare js files, could you add a list of which components you built your mootools file with?
Great work on the tutorial - Ankh, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1the zip worked on safari and firefox2 on osx 10.4.9
- sachmanb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Every CSS, Javascript article I see on digg is usually pretty bad.... I was expecting this to be bad. I digg this....
- punterfpc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Judicar, actually, you can do that with AJAX (when waiting for a page to load)... Sorry...
You can even emulate the slow loading times if you REALLY REALLY wanted to... (JQuery is a good place to start for that sorta thing...) - diggabhishek, on 05/05/2008, -0/+0I use it and find its great
- hattable, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I guess no one got the joke.
If it had ended with "/sarcasm" I am guessing he would be +5 not -5 right now. - Xanium4332, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3cause flash needs adobe, nuff said!

- abalith, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Perfect! Even if it's not true it is quite a nice idea.
- Drgn547, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1@ Ngai: "This one shows.. but the text is all messed up..."
Looks like duggmirror didn't cache the CSS path right...its not "messed up" just not loading the CSS; you're seeing it with no style attached. - xShad0w, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Wait whats so fancy about it, I just see a orange gradient nav bar with four links that are blanked....no rollover effects, i think somethin went wrong but i'd really like to see the full affect and can you post the stuff u used for the moving text that was cool
- gann, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2"CSS+Javascript power. Fancy menu..."
Oh, you mean DHTML menu! - 3magine, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1I take back my previous comment. I downloaded the zip, and it is very, very nice. Good Job!
