Fantastic Bouncy Effect using jQuery/JavaScript ...

Let us see how can we create a Bounce Effect in HTML pages using jQuery. Bounce effect is an effect which resembles bouncing of a ball on floor or on a wall. These kind of effects dramatically improve user experience.
The Goal

Our Goal will be to create a HTML page that has 4 boxes (DIVs). Clicking each of these boxes will bounce them is a particular direction. We can control the direction as well as the speed of bouncing element with arguments to the method of jQuery.

Step 1: The HTML Code

Following will be the HTML code for our example:

·········10········20········30········40········50········60········70········80········90········100·······110·······120·······130·······140·······150
01.<table>
02.<tr>
03.    <td><div id="bouncy1">Click here to bounce. Direction: Up</div></td>
04.    <td><div id="bouncy2">Click here to bounce. Direction: Left</div></td>
05.</tr>
06.<tr>
07.    <td><div id="bouncy3">Click here to bounce. Direction: Right</div></td>
08.    <td><div id="bouncy4">Click here to bounce. Direction: Down</div></td>
09.</tr>
10.</table>
11.<br/>
12.<input id="bounceAll" type="button" value="Click to Bounce All!"/>

Step 2: The Stylesheet CSS Code

Just to add some color to our boxes, add following CSS code to your HTML:

·········10········20········30········40········50········60········70········80········90········100·······110·······120·······130·······140·······150
01.div {
02.    padding:5px;
03.    width:150px;
04.    height:100px;
05.    text-align:center;
06.}
07.#bouncy1 {
08.    background-color:#FFEE88;
09.}
10.#bouncy2 {
11.    background-color:#EE88FF;
12.}
13.#bouncy3 {
14.    background-color:#EE8888;
15.}
16.#bouncy4 {
17.    background-color:#88EEFF;
18.}

Step 3: The jQuery/JavaScript Code

Now we will give the actual bounce effect to the demo. We will use jQuery library for this. Also we need to include jQuery UI for bounce effect. For this we will include js files from google apis. Google host the jQuery UI and jQuery core files on their server. We can directly include it from there.

·········10········20········30········40········50········60········70········80········90········100·······110·······120·······130·······140·······150
1.<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
2.<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.7.2/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>

Also copy following code in your HTML to give final bounce effect.

·········10········20········30········40········50········60········70········80········90········100·······110·······120·······130·······140·······150
01.$(function(){
02.
03.    //Add bounce effect on Click of the DIV
04.    $(#bouncy1).click(function () {
05.          $(this).effect("bounce", { times:5 }, 300);
06.    });
07.
08.    $(#bouncy2).click(function () {
09.          $(this).effect("bounce", { direction:left, times:5 }, 300);
10.    });
11.
12.    $(#bouncy3).click(function () {
13.          $(this).effect("bounce", { direction: ight, times:5 }, 300);
14.    });
15.
16.    $(#bouncy4).click(function () {
17.          $(this).effect("bounce", { direction: wouldown, times:5 }, 300);
18.    });
19.
20.    //Bounce all DIVs on click of button
21.    $("#bounceAll").click(function(){
22.        $("div").click();
23.    });
24.});
