Hello,
For our current project we required some neat instant user notifications, therefore we created a simple Growl-inspired notification system using Mootools.
Now updated for IE6 compatibility!
The package contains a sample.html very self-explanatory for most users;
Just include the js_growl.js and the js_growl.css files in your page’s header and send a user notification whenever you need using:
JS_Growl.notify('Your text or content html goes here.');
Any bugs/features just give me a comment, i’ll check it out ;)

Hi
Nice script, I like the growl effect a lot.
I am building a small event calendar and wonder if the growl can be executed when the page loads instead of an onclick function?
basically my code will pull out any event on a given day, i would like the growl to auto pop up with each event in a seperate growl and then repeat this after every 30 minutes
ia m very stuck on this and was hoping someone can help out
TIA

Yes, you can use the JS_Growl.notify(’text’); function whenever you wish, not just onclick.
JS_Growl supports multiple notifications, each JS_Growl.notify(’text’); is a different notification “window”.
Just have your script notify whenever you need. Growl will automatically add up the notifications if necessary.
In your case just run a function every 30 mins that pulls out the events and then notify the user for each event.
If you need more precise help leave me a comment and i’ll contact you over e-mail.

Hi Trouts
Thank you for the speedy reply. I am new to mootools and JS in general.
If you are able some help via email would be great.
At the moment I am using a growl from http://icebeat.bitacoras.com/mootools/growl/ but your version seems a lot more inline with what i am trying to achieve.
My php code is written ready, i just need some help with the periodical check and execution of the growl without the click.
Thank you
Mark
