These layers move in response to the mouse, and, depending on their dimensions (and options for layer initialisation), they move by different amounts, in a parallaxy kind of way.</p> <p>The diagram on the right illustrates what Parallax does to the html:</p> <pre style="padding: 0.5em 1em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(232, 236, 240);"><span style="color: rgb(136, 18, 128);"><ul </span><span style="color: rgb(153, 69, 0);">id</span><span style="color: rgb(136, 18, 128);">=</span><span style="color: rgb(26, 26, 166);">"parallax"</span><span style="color: rgb(136, 18, 128);">></span> <span style="color: rgb(136, 18, 128);"><li></li></span> <span style="color: rgb(136, 18, 128);"><li></li></span> <span style="color: rgb(136, 18, 128);"></ul></span></pre> <p>Here's a demonstration with some images:</p> <div id="parallax" class="clear"> <div style="width: 860px; height: 273px; position: absolute; left: 14.4635%; margin-left: -124.386px; top: 78.1392%; margin-top: -213.32px;"> <img src="lib-jquery-plugin-parallax-parallax-files-0-sun.png" alt="" style="position: absolute; left: 300px; top: -12px;"> </div> <div style="width: 920px; height: 274px; position: absolute; left: 14.4635%; margin-left: -133.064px; top: 78.1392%; margin-top: -214.102px;"> <img src="lib-jquery-plugin-parallax-parallax-files-1-mountains.png" alt=""> </div> <div style="width: 1100px; height: 284px; position: absolute; left: 14.4635%; margin-left: -159.098px; top: 78.1392%; margin-top: -221.915px;"> <img src="lib-jquery-plugin-parallax-parallax-files-2-hill.png" alt="" style="position: absolute; top: 40px; left: 0pt;"> </div> <div style="width: 1360px; height: 320px; position: absolute; left: 14.4635%; margin-left: -196.703px; top: 78.1392%; margin-top: -250.046px;"> <img src="lib-jquery-plugin-parallax-parallax-files-3-wood.png" alt="" style="position: absolute; top: 96px; left: 0pt;"> </div> <img src="lib-jquery-plugin-parallax-parallax-files-corner-white-tl.png" class="tl"><img src="lib-jquery-plugin-parallax-parallax-files-corner-white-tr.png" class="tr"><img src="lib-jquery-plugin-parallax-parallax-files-corner-white-bl.png" class="bl"><img src="lib-jquery-plugin-parallax-parallax-files-corner-white-br.png" class="br"></div> <p>But that's not all that jParallax does. If the layers are made of <div>s or <li>s or any other container then content can be positioned inside those layers, and Parallax provides methods for navigating to that content in response to user events.</p> <h3>Demos</h3> <ul> <li><a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos.html">webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos.html</a></li> <li><a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_stalkbuttons.html">webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_stalkbuttons.html</a> - demonstrates multiple parallaxed elements per page.</li> <li><a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_stalkremote.html">webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_stalkremote.html</a> - shows parallax by 'remote control'.</li> <li><a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_type.html">webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_type.html</a> - shows how content inside layers can be linked to.</li> <li><a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_target.html">webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_target.html</a> - demonstrates window resizing.</li> </ul> <h3>Using jParallax</h3> <p>The default behaviour of jParallax is to show the whole width of a layer in response to the mouse travelling the whole width of the parallax 'window'. When the mouse is moved to the extreme left-hand side of the parallaxed window the left-hand side of the layer meets it, and when the mouse is moved to the extreme right-hand side of the parallaxed window the right-hand side of the layer arrives at the right hand-side of the window.</p> <p>The simplest way to use jParallax is to make the layers different sizes using CSS. Bigger layers move faster and thus appear closer, and unless a layer is smaller than the viewport, its edges are never seen. The <a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos.html">Colour Drops Demo</a> was made in exactly this way, with jParallax in its default state, and the 'speed' of the layers controlled simply by making the images different sizes. No options have been passed in.</p> <p>However, we all want tweaky-tweaky. I also give you tweaky-tweaky...</p> <h4>Instantiation</h4> <pre style="padding: 0.5em 1em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(232, 236, 240);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jQuery</span>(<span style="color: rgb(118, 15, 21);">'#parallax'</span>).<span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jparallax</span>(options, layer_options);</pre> <p>Clearly the parallaxed element(s) can be selected any way you like. For the sake of simplicity for the rest of this guide I refer to the parallaxed element as '#parallax'.</p> <h4>CSS</h4> <p>In most cases, you should set the following CSS on the parallaxed element:</p> <pre style="padding: 0.5em 1em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(232, 236, 240);">#parallax {<span style="color: rgb(136, 19, 79);">position</span>:<span style="color: rgb(155, 68, 0);">relative</span>; <span style="color: rgb(136, 19, 79);">overflow</span>:<span style="color: rgb(155, 68, 0);">hidden</span>; <span style="color: rgb(136, 19, 79);">width</span>:<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);"><em>n</em>px</span>; <span style="color: rgb(136, 19, 79);">height</span>:<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);"><em>n</em>px</span>;}</pre> <p>Children of a parallaxed element become layers, and are automatically given <code>position:absolute;</code> in order to start moving them around, but the parallaxed element itself needs <code>position:relative;</code> or <code>position:absolute;</code> or the layers will move relative to the document rather than the viewport. <code>overflow:hidden;</code> stops layers displaying outside of the bounds of the viewport, and width and height should be set to prevent the viewport collapsing.</p> <p>In addition, jParallax needs to know how big layers are, and if there is anchored content inside a layer it needs to know where and how big it is. It uses jQuery's <code>height()</code>, <code>width()</code> and <code>offset()</code> methods to find out. However, if you experience trouble with the range of motion of a layer you should consider setting all dimensions (height, width, top and left) explicitly via CSS to make life easy for those methods.</p> <h4>Options <span class="default">default values</span></h4> <p>The following options can be passed to jParallax to set the behaviour of the mouse, default behaviour of the layers, animation settings and so on:</p> <dl class="options"> <dt>mouseResponse: boolean <span class="default">true</span></dt> <dt>mouseport: jQuery('element') <span class="default">same as parallaxed element</span></dt> <dd>Enables mouse response and specifies the DOM element to track the mouse in. By default it's on, and it's the same as the viewport, the DOM element that you instantiated jParallax on. Perhaps you might want to use the whole window as the mouseport, in which case you could pass in <strong>jQuery(window)</strong>.</dd> <dt>mouseActiveOutside: boolean <span class="default">false</span></dt> <dd>Enables mouse response <em>outside</em> the limits of the mouseport, but layers behave as if the mouse was at the edge of the mouseport.</dd> <dt>linkResponse: boolean <span class="default">true</span></dt> <dd>Enables response to "link" events triggered on the parallaxed element(s). Content containing an anchor tag, and positioned inside a layer, is pulled to the centre of the viewport when the anchor's <em>name</em> attribute is passed as the first value in an array via the custom "link" event. Consider the following code: <pre style="padding: 0.5em 1em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(232, 236, 240);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jQuery</span>(<span style="color: rgb(118, 15, 21);">'a'</span>).<span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">click</span>(<span style="color: rgb(136, 19, 80);">function</span>(){ <span style="color: rgb(136, 19, 80);">var</span> ref=<span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jQuery</span>(<span style="color: rgb(136, 19, 80);">this</span>).<span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">attr</span>(<span style="color: rgb(118, 15, 21);">"href"</span>); <span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jQuery</span>(<span style="color: rgb(118, 15, 21);">'#parallax'</span>).<span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">trigger</span>(<span style="color: rgb(118, 15, 21);">"link"</span>, [ref]); });</pre> This says that when an anchor in the document is clicked, its <em>html</em> attribute will be passed as a ref to the element '#parallax' in a "link" event trigger. If there is content on one of the layers containing <a name="ref"> it will be pulled to the centre of the viewport. If not, nothing will happen.<br> If linked content is not being used it's a good idea to switch linkResponse to false. It will save the browser a tiny amount of overhead on plugin initialisation. This option was called "triggerResponse" up to version 0.9.9. </dd> <dt>linkExposesEdges: boolean <span class="default">false</span></dt> <dd>Sets whether linkResponse pulls the edges of layers into the viewport while attempting to display content in the centre.</dd> <dt>takeoverFactor: 0-1 <span class="default">0.68</span></dt> <dt>takeoverThresh: 0-1 <span class="default">0.002</span></dt> <dd> Sets the speed and accuracy with which the layers 'catch up' with the mouse position when the mouse enters the mouseport from somewhere other from whence it has left. Technically, takeoverFactor is the decay of the approach curve per animation frame, where lower numbers are more decay (and therefore quicker), and takeoverThresh is the distance within which the layer position is considered to have arrived, as a ratio of the mouseport dimension. takeoverThresh is by default a five-hundredth of the mouseport - larger numbers may produce a noticeable 'jump' at the beginning of a new mouse movement. You shouldn't need to mess with these too much, I just stuck them in there because we all like tweaky-tweaky. </dd> <dt>frameDuration: milliseconds <span class="default">25</span></dt> <dd> You may want to put this up to save CPU. About 40 is acceptable (25 frames/second). I like it zippy, though. I hear <a href="http://www.google.com/chrome/">Google Chrome</a> has got timing accuracy down to 1ms! Others don't do lower than 15ms. </dd> <dt>xparallax: boolean <span class="default">true</span></dt> <dt>yparallax: boolean <span class="default">true</span></dt> <dt>xorigin: 'left' | 'centre', 'center', 'middle' | 'right' | 0-1 <span class="default">'centre'</span></dt> <dt>yorigin: 'top' | 'centre', 'center', 'middle' | 'bottom' | 0-1 <span class="default">'centre'</span></dt> <dd> Sets default alignment of layers. See 'Layer Options' below for a detailed description. </dd> <dt>cssViewport: {name: value} <span class="default">{}</span></dt> <dt>cssLayers: {name: value} <span class="default">{position: absolute}</span></dt> <dd>Style jParallax via jQuery on instantiation. This can make sense when you start thinking about graceful degredation. I don't recommend it to start with, though.</dd> </dl> <h4>Layer Options <span class="default">default values</span></h4> <p>In addition to the options above, Layer Options can be passed to each layer individually, as extra arguments:</p> <pre style="padding: 0.5em 1em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(232, 236, 240);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jQuery</span>(<span style="color: rgb(118, 15, 21);">'element'</span>).<span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jparallax</span>(options, layer_0_options, layer_1_options, etc.);</pre> <p>As an example, to give the second layer a set xtravel value, but pass no options as default:</p> <pre style="padding: 0.5em 1em; text-align: left; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(232, 236, 240);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jQuery</span>(<span style="color: rgb(118, 15, 21);">'element'</span>).<span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 105);">jparallax</span>({}, {}, {xtravel: <span style="color: rgb(118, 15, 21);">'200px'</span>});</pre> <p>A layer option object can have the following parameters:</p> <dl class="options"> <dt>xparallax: boolean <span class="default">true</span></dt> <dt>yparallax: boolean <span class="default">true</span></dt> <dd> Enables motion in the x or y direction in response to the mouse. </dd> <dt>xtravel: 0-1 | '<em>n</em>%' | '<em>n</em>px' <span class="default">1</span></dt> <dt>ytravel: 0-1 | '<em>n</em>%' | '<em>n</em>px' <span class="default">1</span></dt> <dd> When specified as a number between 0 and 1, or as a percentage string, xtravel and ytravel scale the distance a layer will travel. When specified as a pixel string they set the distance a layer will travel.<br><br>When travel is left at the default 1, the behaviour is to display the whole width of the layer over the whole range of the viewport in response to the mouse travelling the whole width of the mouseport. In other words, the left meets the left when the mouse is on the left, the centre lines up when the mouse is at the centre <em>and</em> the right meets the right when the mouse is at the right. Setting xtravel to, say, <code>0.5</code>, or <code>'50%'</code> will mean half that layer's possible horizontal travel will occur over the same range of mouse motion.<br><br>Numbers outside the range 0-1 can be used, too. Negatives will cause travel in reverse direction, scaling factors greater than <code>1</code> (or <code>'100%'</code>), or less than <code>-1</code> (or <code>'-100%'</code>) will cause the edges of layers to be pulled into view. </dd> <dt>xorigin: 'left' | 'centre', 'center', 'middle' | 'right' | 0-1 <span class="default">'centre'</span></dt> <dt>yorigin: 'top' | 'centre', 'center', 'middle' | 'bottom' | 0-1 <span class="default">'centre'</span></dt> <dd> Only meaningful when xtravel or ytravel are not 1. Determines which point of the layer lines up with which point of the viewport when the mouse is at that point in the mouseport. Got that?<br><br> Look, if origin.x is set to <strong>'left'</strong>, then when the mouse is moved to the left hand side of the mouseport the left hand side of the layer arrives at the left hand side of the viewport. If it's set to <strong>'centre'</strong>, then when the mouse is at the centre of the mouseport the centre of the layer is aligned with the centre of the viewport. Similarly with <strong>'right'</strong>.<br><br> Numbers may also be used: <ul> <li><strong>0</strong> is equivalent to <strong>'left'</strong>.</li> <li><strong>0.5</strong> is equivalent to <strong>'centre'</strong> or <strong>'center'</strong> or <strong>'middle'</strong>.</li> <li><strong>1</strong> is equivalent to <strong>'right'</strong>.</li> </ul> Numbers outside the range 0-1 may also be used, although you will start seeing the edges of layers appearing inside the viewport. And they'll travel in the opposite direction.<br><br> </dd> <dt>width: integer <span class="default">undefined</span></dt> <dt>height: integer <span class="default">undefined</span></dt> <dd>Values for layer dimensions, normally read from css, can be overridden. This does NOT change the css, only jParallax's idea of how big a layer is. This can be very useful in cases where you want to be able to 'click through' the upper layers. Typically you make layers very small in css, but tell jParallax they are big via width and height. You prabably want overflow: visible on those layers, too.</dd> </dl> <h3>Tips</h3> <!--h4>Making layer content clickable</h4> <p>Layers can contain anything. They could contain links. Normally, however, the top layer (the last child of #parallax) is going to be the only one that can have clickable items on as the other layers will be behind it. But wait! There is a workaround:</p> <ul> <li>Set the top layer's CSS dimensions to be really small, say, 1px by 1px.</li> <li>Use the <strong>layer[i].width</strong> and <strong>layer[i].height</strong> options to tell Parallax the real dimensions of the layer.</li> <li>Absolutely or relatively position your items on the layer. The layer container element is only 1px big, but (assuming overflow is not hidden) the items will happily sit outside.</li> <li>The second layer is now clickable between the gaps in the items on the top layer!</li> </ul--> <h4>Extra graphics</h4> <p>If you want to add elements to #parallax, such as overlaying curved corner images like in the above example, add them <em>after</em> you have instantiated jParallax in order to avoid having those elements included in the calculations.</p> <h4>Transparent image layers</h4> <p>Use <a href="http://plugins.jquery.com/project/iFixPng2">jQuery iFixPng plugin</a>, to make see-through .png images work on IE6.</p> <h3>Sites using jParallax</h3> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.foldifoldi.com/">www.foldifoldi.com</a></li> <li><a href="http://htmlexpress.de/">htmlexpress.de</a></li> <li><a href="http://flickaway.s3.amazonaws.com/ploreex/ploreex.html">ploreex flickr visualiser</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.vektordesign.com/">vektordesign.com</a></li> <li><a href="http://dezignus.com/">dezignus.com</a></li> <li><a href="http://themeforest.net/item/communizine/19178">Communizine Wordpress theme</a></li> <li><a href="http://stephband.info/">stephband.info</a>, complete parallax overkill</li> <li><a href="http://housamz.com/">housamz.com</a></li> <!--li><a href="http://www.laura-mitchell.com">www.laura-mitchell.com</a></li--> </ul> <p>Let me know if you have a site that uses jParallax using the 'Write to me' form at the top of this page.</p> <h3>Version history</h3> <h4>0.9.9</h4> <p>Basically version 1.0, but until I've fully tested it, it's staying 1% away.</p> <ul> <li>Code majorly refactored. It's much more j now, and a little smaller. The anim clock changed, the code got re-shuffled to make it more compact, to re-use more routines and make more use of jQuery goodness. The biggest internal change is that it now uses vector arrays instead of property objects to store data.</li> <li>Implemented events for internal control of calculation and animation, and external control of goodies like "freeze" and "link".</li> <li>Options added: cssLayers and cssViewport, for 'embedding' styles in the jParallax declaration, should you want to.</li> <li>triggerResponse is now linkResponse</li> <li>Some previously undocumented options now documented. But not all. Oh no.</li> </ul> <h4>0.9.1</h4> <ul> <li>Fixed bug when specifying travel by %.</li> <li>Travel px or % detection has more robust Regex.</li> </ul> <h4>0.9</h4> <ul> <li>Code optimisation.</li> </ul> <h4>0.8.1</h4> <ul> <li>Tested in Safari, Firefox 3, IE6, IE7, Google Chrome (Beta) and Opera 9.5. IE6 has trouble handling multiple jParallax instances when they are declared on one jQuery selector. Other than that, all present and correct. Declare your doctypes!</li> <li>Bug fixed in matrixSearch.</li> </ul> <h4>0.8</h4> <ul> <li>Gracefully handles window resize.</li> <li>Begins to shoot for proper IE support.</li> <li>Positioning algorithm re-written. In fact, it can barely be called an algorithm any longer, as the positioning now relies almost solely on CSS. Whereas previously it was defined absolutely in pixels, positioning is now defined by <em>percentage</em> combined with variable (negative) margins, forcing the browser CSS engine to take more responsibility for re-positioning. This means that window resizing is smooth, and the Javascript has less calculating to do. However, it may be more of a CPU hog this way. Some testing will be done.</li> <li>Due to the above changes, some Options and Layer Options now mean something slightly different to their original definitions. For example, xtravel is now a <em>ratio</em> by default rather than a pixel definition.</li> <li>Made a minor change to the way dimensions are registered - they now use the jQuery methods width(), height() and offset(), so they should no longer need to be explicitly set via CSS (although it wouldn't hurt, if you want to be sure). This also applies to layer contents.</li> <li>Added <a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_target.html">Target Demo</a> to demonstrate window resizing and Trigger Response, and updated arse demo to jParallax.</li> <li>Some code optimising to make it faster, but there's more that can be done in this department.</li> <li>Docs updated.</li> </ul> <h4>0.7 (Not released)</h4> <ul> <li>Unreleased. Broken.</li> </ul> <h4>0.6</h4> <ul> <li>Trigger response added.</li> <li>New demos added. <a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_stalkremote.html">Remote control</a> and a <a href="http://webdev.stephband.info/parallax_demos_arse.html">crude trigger demo</a>.</li> <li>Options simplified. They were getting a bit out of hand. Default options are now all attributes of one object, rather than nested objects as previously. (Layer Options still work the same way, one object per layer).</li> <li>Docs updated.</li> </ul> <h4>0.5</h4> <ul> <li>Soft Takeover animation timer and mouseport detection rewritten to get rid of jerky re-entry bugs. Life is now smoother and creamier.</li> </ul> <h4>0.4</h4> <ul> <li>Based on an idea I read somewhere on the web or possibly in the book jQuery In Action, jParallax now saves CPU by moving the layers at a maximum frameRate and not on every change of mouse co-ordinates.</li> <li>Soft Takeover animates layers to position over time on mouseport re-entry. It's a little dodgy.</li> </ul> <h4>0.3</h4> <ul> <li>Implemented a crude Soft Takeover. It doesn't animate to position over time, just over mouse move, but it does make the mouseport entry a bit smoother.</li> </ul> <h4>0.2</h4> <ul> <li>Fixed xtravel, ytravel and mouseport initialisation.</li> <li>Added Stalk Button demo.</li> </ul> <h4>0.1</h4> <ul> <li>Initial port from proof of concept code.
