2. Self-resizing Navigation Menu with jQuery

Today I am going to share a nice CSS only (with some jQuery) navigation menu that adapts the size of its list items automatically. Sometimes you need to reuse a
menu and it can take some work to adapt the list items if you would like to spread them evenly. So, here is a little attempt to simplify this process by resizing the
menu and list items with a simple jQuery function. The function takes a width value as input and resizes the links inside of the list elements according to the
number

3. A Fresh Bottom Slide Out Menu with jQuery

description text and some icon. We will use some CSS3 properties for some nice shadow effects and jQuery for the interaction.

4. Sliding Checkbox Actions Menu with jQuery

In this tutorial we will create an actions menu with jQuery that appears when checkboxes are selected. This can be a very helpful UI property since we don?t force
the user to scroll to the place where the actions are ? they just appear whenever the user needs them. Additionally, the user can drag the actions box to the place
that is more practical for him, and the box will always follow when the user scrolls the page. It will also show a count of how many checkboxes were selected.

5. Fixed Fade Out Menu with CSS and jQuery

This Fixed Fade Out Menu with CSS and jQuery plugin is inspired by David Walshs top navigation bar that gets semi-transparent when you scroll down the page.
The aim is to have a fixed navigation that follows the user when he scrolls, and only subtly showing itself by fading out and becoming almost transparent. When
the user hovers over it, the menu then becomes opaque again.

6. Slide Down Box Menu with jQuery and CSS3

In this tutorial we will create a unique sliding box navigation. The idea is to make a box with the menu item slide out, while a thumbnail pops up. We will also
include a submenu box with further links for some of the menu items. The submenu will slide to the left or to the right depending on which menu item we are
hovering.

7. Awesome Cufonized Fly-out Menu with jQuery and CSS3

of the current item, and we will slide out a description bar from the left side of the page, reaching towards the current menu item. We will use jQuery for the effect
and some CSS3 properties for the style. We are not going to use any images.

8. Beautiful Slide Out Navigation

Create wonderful slide out navigation with jQuery. This is an enhancement to the basic slide out navigation menu. This is similar to the basic slide out navigation
menu but has horizontal navigation. Like Stefan Matei pointed out, it might be quite cute but we don?t want the user to hover over all options first, in order to see
what menu items exit. So, I thought about labeling the menu items and making them stick out, so the user can always “see” what the navigation entails. Being in a
horiz

9. Fancy Apple-Style Icon Slide Out Navigation

Learn how to create an Apple-style navigation menu with a twist. Although “fancy” and “Apple-style” dont really go together, I thought that it?s time for something different. This menu looks very similar to the Apple-style navigation but it reveals some icons when hovering over it. The icons slide out from the top and when the mouse leaves the link, the icon slides back under the link element. This creates a neat “card-shuffle” effect.

10. Awesome Bubble Navigation with jQuery

Make your website bubbly with the Bubbly navigation using jQuery. This mwnu has round navigation icons that release a bubble when hovering over them. The seamless effect is based on the jQuery easing plugin.

Having smooth movements and rotations, this menu just rocks! If you love to add adventure to your website viewers, then you would love to have the rocking and rolling rounded menu.

13. Grungy Random Rotation Menu with jQuery and CSS3

Grunge theme is an all time favorite. Add class with simplicity using a Grungy user interface. Learn how to create a great grungy menu with some content area that slides out. We use the grunge style because we want it to look a bit messy: the menu items are going to have a random rotation using the CSS3 property ?transform?. So, when we load the page each menu item will be positioned differently, giving a random and creative look to this grunge page.

14. Scrollable Thumbs Menu with jQuery

Make your menu more image-inative Scrollable Thumbs Menu. Build menus using images that will definitely add elegance to the website. This helps to easily create a fixed menu with scrollable thumbnails. The idea is to have a menu fixed to the bottom of the page and let a vertical stack of thumbs appear when hovering over a menu item.

15. Little Boxes Menu with jQuery

This is an attractive menu, where the menu items come up as little boxes in an image, and the menu data come up on clicking the pretty little boxed menu items. These little boxes will animate randomly when a menu item is clicked. The clicked menu item expands and reveals a content area for some description or links. When the item is clicked again, the boxes will come back, reconstructing the initial background image.

This is a sliding menu plugin for jQuery which fires on mouseover and mouseout events. It has the following plugin options:

• tagPaddingTop: how much is the element moving down
• bgColor: the background color of an item by default
• bgMoverColor: the background color of an item for the onmouseover
• textColor: the text color for the onmouseover

number of elements that are in the list. If we, for example, have a menu with a width of 600px and there are 6 list items in the list, each link element would get the
width of 100px. It might be overkill to be so lazy and not do it manually in the CSS, but it might be a nice example of how you can dynamically adapt the size of
elements.
