Responsive Nav is a tiny JavaScript plugin which weighs only 1.7 KB minified and Gzip’ed, and helps you to create a toggled navigation for small screens. It uses touch events and CSS3 transitions for the best possible performance. It also contains a “clever” workaround that makes it possible to transition from height: 0 to height: auto, which isn’t normally possible with CSS3 transitions.
- Simple, semantic markup.
- Weighs only 1.7 KB minified and Gzip’ed.
- Doesn’t require any external library.
- Uses CSS3 transitions and touch events.
- Removes the 300 ms delay between a physical tap and the click event.
- Makes it possible to use CSS3 transitions with height: auto.
- Built with accessibility in mind, meaning that everything works on screen readers and with JavaScript disabled, too.
- Works in all major desktop and mobile browsers, including IE 6 and up.
- Free to use under the MIT license.
- Simple demo with IE support (View the source code)
- Advanced demo (View the source code)
- Official website (works as a demo, too!)
- Seven additional examples included in this repository's demos folder.
Following the steps below you will be able to get the plugin up and running. If you notice any bugs, please post them to GitHub issues.
- Link files:
<!-- Put these into the <head> -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="responsive-nav.css">
<script src="responsive-nav.js"></script>- Add markup:
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#">About</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Projects</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</div>- Hook up the plugin:
<!-- Put this right before the </body> closing tag -->
<script>
var navigation = responsiveNav("#nav");
</script>- Customizable options:
var navigation = responsiveNav("#nav", { // Selector: The ID of the wrapper
animate: true, // Boolean: Use CSS3 transitions, true or false
transition: 400, // Integer: Speed of the transition, in milliseconds
label: "Menu", // String: Label for the navigation toggle
insert: "after", // String: Insert the toggle before or after the navigation
customToggle: "", // Selector: Specify the ID of a custom toggle
openPos: "relative", // String: Position of the opened nav, relative or static
jsClass: "js", // String: 'JS enabled' class which is added to <html> el
debug: false, // Boolean: Log debug messages to console, true or false
init: function(){}, // Function: Init callback
open: function(){}, // Function: Open callback
