jQuery.fontFlex
Lightweight jQuery extension for dynamically changing font sizes according to container / browser width. Intended for use with responsive or adaptive CSS layouts.
Installation
Include the latest version of jQuery and jQuery.fontFlex.js in the <head> of your HTML document:
<script src="jQuery.min.js"></script> <script src="jQuery.fontFlex.js"></script>How to Use
Define a default CSS font base by setting font-size: 1em and line-height: 150% on the body or intended element. Declaring the font-size is optional, but highly recommended in case javascript is disabled. Finally, call the plugin on said element. Live Demo: code.nath.co/fontFlex
