Alternative to setting links to open in a new window

It’s neat because it works with my other jQuery applications, but this simple code opens up new links in a lightbox style window on top of your existing page. Standards compliant, or not…?

In love with jQuery

In the last few months, the designers and developers at Shepline Creative have discovered, and fallen in love with, jQuery. With reasonably simple and straight-forward, lightweight code, there seems to be endless possibilities for exciting and vibrant designs.

Some of my favourite jQuery effects at the moment are:

  • CrossSlide – some common slide-show animations, traditionally only available via Adobe Flashâ„¢ or other proprietary plugins. CrossSlide builds upon jQuery’s animation facility, so it is as portable across browsers as jQuery itself (that is, a lot!)
  • Catch My Flame: Infinite Caroursel – excellent slideshow/gallery software
  • jTabber – for tabbed pages
  • Accordian – nifty accordian/show-and-hide for cascading content
