In my opinion (and only my opinion) i think that it is kinda disturbing if we hover on one item and immediately if we hover on another item, the accordian doesn't open for the second item.
If you look at the mootools.net home page, you see the kwick(horizontal acoordian). I am working on something like that. I am facing the same problem there as well. But in the mootools site, if you hover from the left end to the right end fast, you could see that the intermediate items partially animate... As far as i know this can be solved using the stop() method in fx. But the stop() method is available only as part of the interface's animation extension. John has promised that as part of the core in 1.2 though. So, again, in my opinion, i would favor an approach where if we hover over one item and then immediately if we hover over the other item before the animation of first is complete, then the animation of the first item should be stopped in the middle and the second animation should start. That would be ideal. But i am not sure how easy or difficult it is. I am keen and willing to do any help that might be required. -GTG On 8/26/07, Jörn Zaefferer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Ganeshji Marwaha schrieb: > > Jörn, this is fantastic... very re-usable as well.. > > > > I have a question/suggestion though...
