really nice, and easy to use !
But it would be very great if one could position it where you want (lets say top, bottom, right, left, center and any combination of these)
Perhaps in a new version ?

This is really quite nice.

But – forgive me for being such a js dummy, but how can I position the alert in the center, or upper center, of the page? (I’m using body onload)

;)

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

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.

Regards,
Trouts

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
Mark
