[jQuery] [ANN] S6 - Easier to Understand and Extend S5 Rewrite using jQuery
Hello,
For the Slide Show (S9) gem that lets you create slide shows and
author slides in plain text using a wiki-style markup language that's
easy-to-write and easy-to-read I've created a rewrite of Eric Meyer's
S5 JavaScript code using the jQuery JavaScript library.
The idea is that the new code (S6) is easier to understand and
easier to extend. You can find the code online @
http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/lib/templates/s6/slides.js
and compare it to http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/lib/templates/s5/slides.js
Add plugins, effects and more. Contributions welcome! Cheers.
PS: To see the jQuery-powered S6 slide show package in action see the
S6-adaption of "Prototype vs jQuery: To and from JavaScript libraries"
by Remy Sharp as an example online @ http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/jquery.html
S6 usage tips: Use the t-key to toggle between outline and
presentation mode. Scroll to the bottom right corner for slide show
controls (or press the c-key). Use the space bar, right arrow, down
arrow or page down to go to next slide and so on.
