I’m a mac addict and I’m preparing a presentation for one of my classes. I have all the content ready and I have some extra time so I am thinking of doing a menu similar to OS X’s dock magnification. I downloaded a file and found this out there, but don’t know what it means:
<script type="text/javascript" src="MacStyleDock.js"></script>
Any suggestions?

...without seeing the file MacStyleDock.js, it will be impossible for anyone to tell you.

I don't know, nor will most people, what script you are trying to use.

There are a number of 'fish-eye' scripts available.

Check out http://dojotoolkit.org/, a javascript framework which features this effect.

The demo is at http://dojotoolkit.org/demos/fisheye-demo



There's also similar scripts at http://elliottback.com/wp/archives/2005/03...oogle-x-pulled/


And, if you are interested in a carousel effect, you can check out http://www.prototype-ui.com/
