Transitions for the user interface?

  • Hi. Frequent lurker.

    Working on a web project for class, with specific instructions. What are user interface transitions? Would that be something along the lines of the jquery cycle plugin? Accordions? I've tried researching it, and this is the best I could come up with. Your thoughts?

    (note: edited for clarity. hopefully)
  • css transitions or photoshop ?
  • Not photoshop. Maybe CSS? After a bit more research, I was thinking to use some sort of jquery effects?

    The project isn't due for another month or so, so I'm glad I didn't put this one off until the night before like I normally do the others.

  • Why don't you ask the person who gave you the project to explain what they meant.
  • best will be you can ask about reference sites for the effects client wants.
  • Normally, of course I would. But this time, I can't. It's a "do this on your own, let's see what you come up with" deal for class. A lot of people in the class are stumped.
  • "Interface Transitions" seems very ambigious - could mean a lot of things. To me, it sounds like you would be utilizing AJAX.
