NOTE: This is still beta code. As such the API is still subject to change (hopefully not much however).

NOTE: This library requires prototype.

Features

• Customizable transition effects using http://script.aculo.us
• Embed HTML markup to add style to your notifications
• CSS customization of your notifications
• Degrades nicely so browsers without javascript enabled can still work.

Project colophon

Written by Greg Militello from Dyrect Media Group, LTD.

This is based on code from prototype, http://script.aculo.us and lightbox (the overlay PNG is still Lokesh's for now). Check out those projects!

Also a note should be made to the guys at the Rails spinoffs Mailing list. They have been incredibly helpful. Thanks!
