How to fade images using javascript? - javascript

Need a webpage which displays an image for x number of seconds and then fades into another image which also contains a clickable link.
How do I achieve this with javascript? I know this can be done in Flash but it needs to be iPhone compatible.

Checkout the jQuery Cycle Plugin for a Master's Class on manipulating images with JS for galleries and such. Well written, well documented.
Many other good ones out there. Luke, Use the Source! and learn.

The best way I know is to use a library like jQuery. From what I understand iPhone supports jQuery.

Image editing with Javascript only

I want to edit image in real-time with javascript only. Im new to Js, so this may be dumb question...
I have 3 images:
Background
Car one
Car two
I want to display one on each other in real time. It should look like this:
And the cars should be moving there and back (I must be able to edit their position without refreshing the page).
Im not asking for complete solution, just a few links or pages and some information where to start with. I know Javascript syntax, I just have never used it in any website. If it's not possible, or it would be too hard, I gonna use flash or Java aplet, Im okay to use jQuery or other Javascript libraries. Thank you for any clues!
You might want to check out jQuery animate and z-indexes. What you'll want to do is with z-index place one on top of the other, then animate with jQuery accordingly.

Kaleidoscope effect using Javascript, CSS or ImageMagick?

I'm trying to dynamically make a kaleidoscope pattern from a source image.
You can see an example in Flash here: http://www.maegpai.com/mademyshirt/tool/ (click an image to start).
I want to create the same effect using either HTML Canvas, CSS (masking) or ImageMagick and PHP.
What would be the best way to create something like this besides Flash?
I'm not concerned about older browsers, if I can get this to work in Safari and Chrome that will be enough.
Here is a CSS one: http://bl.ocks.org/abernier/raw/9070122/ code can be found here: http://bl.ocks.org/abernier/9070122/
If you want it done quickly with the least amount of work on your part, use ImageMagick and PHP, the script is already written for you.
If you want to show off your mad skillz, I'd go for CSS (masking). That seems difficult to me.
If you want to get attention, go with HTML5 Canvas. Everyone thinks it's cool.

Looking for a simple fade javascript image rotator

I need a simple image rotator that rotates images by fading, centers vertically and is accepted by most if not all browsers. I however need to be able to customize the arrow images and place them anywhere i like. Anyone know of one?
If I try to visually show you what I need it would look like this.
< -- My back button [ image ] My next button -- >
I use jquery :) I've given plenty of rotators a shot already but they don't accept images of varying sizes or are not customizable.
If all you need is image rotation, why not do it yourself?
It's only a few lines of jQuery and infinitely customizable. :)
Example:
http://jsfiddle.net/jtbowden/UNZR5/1/
I generally like to stick to using this one: http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/
It can be as simple or as complex as you need, and is highly extensible. They also provide heaps of examples for what can be done with it.
Example with next/previous buttons here: http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/int2.html
Have you tried http://aviathemes.com/aviaslider/? It is customizable and is amazing.
Use jQuerytools scrollable by flowplayer. Very lightweight, flexible and they offer a CDN link to there js files so you don't have to load it from your server.
Scrollable http://flowplayer.org/tools/demos/scrollable/gallery.html
Make sure to try out all there available scrollable examples.

How to implement a book preview (2 page spread) without using Flash?

I'm looking into a solution for work, where you have a two page spread of the book to preview. Either side of this, you can hover in the corner to create a pseudo-flip and then click the mouse button to actually turn the page. I know there is many Flash solutions out there, but in this case we cannot use it... So we are looking for a possible solution that can work across all major browsers (yes, including IE6)...
I looked a few canvas solutions, but with Google's canvas extension for IE, these will terribly slow. So was thinking about an SVG/VML solution, like Raphael Javascript library. This could be good, but then trying to look into how to code this, without examples, could be a challenge with the time constraint.
Is there a solution out there that fits (or almost fits) this problem?
How about the SVG Flip solution by Paul Brunt? It seems to do exactly what you ask for, using svg and javascript.
Here are a few demos for different browser generations:
Book flip via CSS3 transforms
Book flip via CSS2.1 absolute positioning
Book flip via DHTML

Apple Cover-flow effect using jQuery or other library?

Does anyone know how to achieve the cover-flow effect using JavaScript to scroll through a bunch of images. I'm not talking about the 3D rotating itunes cover-art, but the effect that happens when you hit the space bar in a folder of documents, allowing you to preview them in a lightbox fashion.
http://www.jacksasylum.eu/ContentFlow/
is the best I ever found.
a true 'CoverFlow', highly configurable, cross-browser, very smooth action, has relections and supports scroll wheel + keyboard control. - has to be what your looking for!
Not sure if you're talking about Coverflow (scroll through images) or Quicklook (preview files in lightbox), try editing your question.
Here's some JS Coverflow implementations:
MooFlow - Coverflow for MooTools
Coverflow in JS proof of concept
Coverflow using JS and CSS Transforms (Webkit only)
I think this is what you want http://addyosmani.com/blog/jqueryuicoverflow/
I tried using the the Jack's Asylum cover flow but it wouldn't let me easily remove and re-add an entire coverflow. I eventually found http://finnrudolph.de/ImageFlow and not only is it more reliable, it's easier to hook into, uses less markup, and doesn't jitter when flipping through images. It's by far the best I've found, and I've tried several on this page.
There is an Apple style Gallery Slider over at
http://www.jqueryfordesigners.com/slider-gallery/ which uses jQuery and the UI.
jCoverflip was just released and is very customizable.
colorbox has such amazing features..loving it.
Also like this one http://www.webappers.com/2008/03/05/galleria-simple-but-nice-jquery-image-gallery/
Is this what you are looking for?
"Create an Apple Itunes-like banner rotator/slideshow with jQuery" is an article explaining how you can make such effect using jQuery.
You can also view the
live demo.
Try Jquery Interface Elements here - http://interface.eyecon.ro/docs/carousel
Here's a sample. http://interface.eyecon.ro/demos/carousel.html
I looked around for a Jquery image carousel a few months ago and didn't find a good one so I gave up. This one was the best I could find.
Check out momoflow: http://flow.momolog.info
True coverflow effect, and performant on Webkit (Safari and Chrome) and Opera, ok on Firefox.
Just to let you all know, xFlow! has had some major work done on it and is vastly improved.
Go to http://xflow.pwhitrow.com for more info and the latest version.
i am currently working on this and planning on releasing it as a jQuery-ui plugin.
-> http://coulisse.luvdasun.com/
please let me know if you are interested and what you are hoping to see in such a plugin.
gr
the effect that happens when you hit the space bar in a folder of
documents, allowing you to preview them in a lightbox fashion
Looks like a classic lightbox plugin is needed. This is my favorite jQuery lightbox plugin: http://colorpowered.com/colorbox/. It's easy to customize, etc.
This one looks really promising, and closer to the actual Apple coverflow effect than the other examples:
