flaTimeline.js

A responsive, animated and customizable flat timeline. :)

Introduction

A simple jQuery plugin to create a responsive, animated and customizable timeline with a flat style.

How it works?

• First of all include jQuery in your project, than add jquery.flatimeline.js and jquery.flatimeline.css to make the timeline works

 <script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script> 
 <script type="text/javascript" src="assets/js/jquery.flatimeline.js"></script> 
 <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="assets/css/jquery.flatimeline.css" />

• Now, create a super-simple semantic HTML list:

<ul class="flaTimeline"> 
  <li class="event"> 
    <div class="date">The date of your event</div> 
    <div class="content"> 
      <div class="title">The title of your event</div> 
      <div class="text">The content of your event</div> 
    </div> 
  </li>
  <li class="event"> 
    <div class="date">The date of your event</div> 
    <div class="content"> 
      <div class="title">The title of your event</div> 
      <div class="text">The content of your event</div> 
    </div> 
  </li>
</ul>

• "Let her go!" [cit. Passenger]

<script type="text/javascript"> 
  $(document).ready(function(){ 
    $('ul.flaTimeline').flaTimeline(); 
  }); 
</script>
