A quick update to Coda-Slider: unique classes for navigation tabs

UPDATE: (Oct. 26th, 2009): I’ve just released a new version of Coda-Slider. Check out the details here. The original version referred to in this post remains available for download.

So I finally found time to add a much-requested feature to Coda-Slider: Different classes for each tab. Now you can target individual tabs and give each one a different look. In the new demo, you’ll see that I just used different background colors to illustrate this feature, but of course you can use images if you like.As this is just a minor addition, I’m calling the updated version “Coda-Slider 1.1.1″. Makes sense to me.

Apologies again that I haven’t been able to respond to all your comments and emails regarding Coda-Slider. I hope you understand that it’s just something I put together for fun and experience, and it’s difficult to spend time maintaining it when I have paying jobs on offer.

Coda-Slider 1.1

UPDATE: (Oct. 26th, 2009): I’ve just released a new version of Coda-Slider. Check out the details here. The original version referred to in this post remains available for download.

It’s been about six weeks since I introduced a neat little jQuery plugin called Coda-Slider. It was well received, and I was delighted to see people incorporating it into their own projects in creative ways.

However, the original Coda-Slider had some bugs and lacked some features. After numerous requests, I’ve finally found time to make some improvements, and today I’m releasing Coda-Slider 1.1. Please check out the demo, and be sure to read the rest of this post for more info and details on customization.

jQuery slideToggle and Internet Explorer

Just noticed something quirky today regarding jQuery’s slideToggle effect in Internet Explorer versions 6 and 7. (I’m guessing the use of jQuery’s slideDown and slideUp will give you the same problem.) I’ve been creating some nice sliding div effects these past couple of weeks in work and wondering why the slide animation in IE6+ was so jagged and clunky, while Firefox and Safari rendered it perfectly. Through the process of elimination and some hair loss, I figured it out.

The fix
