Flash
See an example at http://snowfire.github.io/flash/
Snowfire Flash is a tiny (0.3KB!) jQuery plugin which allows you to produce quick, Google-like flash messages. If you add the default class, you'll get some styling included. If you would rather use your own selector, you can have a look at the CSS file and just cope that over to your class to achieve the same effect.
Dependencies
SF Flash relies on Animate.css for the animations, as well as jQuery. Animate.css is set as a bower dependency, and will hence be included by default. jQuery, however, is not, since we believe it is the user's choice whether to use it from a CDN, Bower, NPM or any other source.
Installation
The recommended way to use this plugin is through bower. You can easily install it using
bower install sf-flash Alternatively, download the minified js and css (if you want to use it) from this repository.
Once you have the file(s), simply import them and run the sfFlash() function on your jQuery object!
Usage
To use the package, you need to insert the actual flash message on the page where you want it. Usually, this would be done on success, often checked server-side. Hence, a PHP implementation could look something like this:
<body> <div class="container"> <!-- Your content here --> </div> <?php if (isset ($_SESSION['flash']): ?> <div class="sf-flash"><?= $_SESSION['flash'] ?></div> <?php endif; ?> <script> $('.sf-flash').sfFlash(); </script> </body>Options
The plugin also supports a few options to be passed in.
- delay (50) – The number of milliseconds before the script runs
- duration (5000) – The number of milliseconds that the flash message should be displayed
