Thanks Rey! The Superfish demo page link is below (It's also added to the plugins page at jquery.com). It's embarrassingly basic but definitely better than nothing - any suggestions for content improvement (or anything else) *more* than welcome. http://users.tpg.com.au/j_birch/plugins/superfish/ Regarding the rotating content for the Blush Fact: It felt a bit like reinventing the wheel as I assumed someone had already done it (heartbeat plugin springs to mind), but here it is in case it helps anyone. I'll try and get to making a demo page and look closer at abstracting the code further (it's kind of focussed to this site's use here) if it's worth it, ie. if it is unique enough to warrant it (doubt it - let me know otherwise). (function($){ $.fn.switchContent = function(spd,rpt,path){ var $$=this; var factTimer = setTimeout(function(){ $$.animate({"opacity":"hide","height":"hide"},spd,function(){ var noCache= new Date().getTime(); $$.load(path+"?version="+noCache,function(){ $$.slideDown(spd,function(){ $$.switchContent(spd,rpt,path); }); }); }); },rpt*1000); return this; }; })(jQuery); Of course, you then need a script (PHP/whatever) on the server that the 'path' argument points t, which merely sends back the next bit of content to fill the element you attach the plugin to. In my case I randomly drew from an array of 'facts' each time. Joel Birch. _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
