HTML5, CSS3 & JS Experiments

By Martin Ivanov

Loading Overlay

X-Overlay - native loading overlays on any element on the page as custom HTML5 tags and powerful JavaScript API:

<acidjs-xoverlay 
    id="overlay-01" 
    spinner="AcidJs.XOverlay/styles/images/loading-02.gif" 
    parent=".ajax-updating-box-01" 
    hidden>
</acidjs-xoverlay>

Demo

Box 1

Imagine this box loads it's content via AJAX, so during the AJAX call it is blocked.

Register Mozilla's X-Tags

You need to do this just once, and add the directive either in the <head /> section or before the closing <body /> tag of the page.

<script src="AcidJs.XOverlay/lib/x-tag-components.js"></script>

Register the Component on the Page via HTML5 @import

You need to do this just once, and add the directive either in the <head /> section or before the closing <body /> tag of the page.

<link rel="import" href="AcidJs.XOverlay/classes/XOverlay.html" />
