10 Fresh jQuery Tutorials to Enhance Navigation Menus
A few years ago, when designers wanted to add cool effects to the navigation of a website they used Flash. We all know the types of problems that caused. Now with the growing popularity of javascript frameworks like jQuery, those same types of “Flash-like” effects can be achieved without Flash. Here are 10 jQuery tutorials and techniques to enhance your website’s navigation and menus.

October 15, 2009There are some really good ideas for nav menus in this collection. The first example is one of my favourites, I think it would work well as a menu for an archive of blog posts. Another great example is the ‘Spritemenu’. I really like how when hovering over a button, the darker blue covers the button to highlight where you are. I will definetly be following the tutorials to try and re-create some of these, and try to push the idea further.

The “Outside the Box with jQuery Navigation” only links to an example. Is that not a packaged download, just an example of what you can do? Thanks.
