This is an extensions library for Prototype.js (v1.6+). Protoplus basictly adds new features to Prototype.js.
h4. For example:
There are visual functions like A core animation function, textshadows, drag&drop, Instant Editables, Easy Tooltips, Star Rating Tool and Apple Like Search Box
And there are other functions supporting these functions such as, Color parsers, PHP-like GET parameter reader, selectable and un selectable elements, Cookie functions, Hower mimic,
Scroll methods, Element value getters.
Protoplus.js is not an animation Library or Frontend Framework it’s just a compilation of commonly used functions build on prototype
Protoplus inherits the usage of prototype library. So usage is as easy as prototype library.
Including on page
<script type="text/javascript" src="prototype.js"></script>; <script type="text/javascript" src="protoplus.js"></script>;
Using shift function
Shift function is a core animation function. It’s basictly the same of setStyle
of prototype but shift sets the style by animations.
<script>; $('div').shift({ height:150, width:200, background:'#FFFFE0', duration:3, easing:'sineOut' }); </script>;
As you can see its as easy as using prototype.
I’ll write a complete documentation soon.
Thanks.
