javascript reflections
Enhancing in a pleasant way, the way a site looks, javascript reflections add an easy mode to reflect your images on the site, without need of image manipulation program to be used on each one. A handy tool for very dynamic pages.Some of this script will be presented below.
Based on prototype and scriptaculous, this script is unobtrusive, makes preload and is crossbrowser. On author site there is a demo on black background too.
“reflex.js 1.2 allows you to add a Cover Flow™ effect (including reflection) to images on your webpages. *Cover Flow is a trademark of Apple Inc.
It works in all the major browsers - Mozilla Firefox 1.5+, Opera 9+, Safari and IE6+. On older browsers, it’ll degrade and your visitors won’t notice a thing. ”
A dual effects , this mootools based script allows you to add shadows and reflections to images, with different parameters like amount,distance,opacity.
This is an improved version of the reflection.js script rewritten for mootools. It allows to add instantaneous reflection effects to your images in modern browsers, in less than 3kb.
The original script is next
“Features
Fun and easy to implement! Just add class=”reflect” to your images
Automatically blends into background colours or images
It’s easy to vary the reflection height and opacity
Can respond to user actions through Javascript
Degrades in older browsers; they won’t notice a thing!
It’s smaller in size than most images; under 5KB!”
as the name suggest, is based on scriptaculous. It allows some params - like amount,opacity
Not much on this, on the site, you will have to digg the coe to see how is working. Anyway, it seems to support distance from main image, opacity and transparent gifs( no safari).
