Earlier today I release jGrowl 1.0.2 on the jQuery plugin page, and I also uploaded the release locally as well. This release is bundled into a zip file and contained within it is a demo page and an accompanying stylesheet. There are some pretty substantial changes in this release, including...

  • Styling is now done externally, not inline.
  • Messages can have an optional "theme" passed in, which defines secondary classes to be applied to messages. This allows for messages to be themed on a per-message basis.
  • Animation speed can be customized.
  • The global closer can be disabled.
  • Added an optional callback to the global closer.
  • Added an optional open and close callback to the individual notifications.
  • Customize the life of a message on a per-message basis.
  • jGrowl automatically starts itself up with the first message.
  • When there are no messages jGrowl will automatically shut itself down.
  • ...fixed various bugs in 1.0.1.

Overall this release is quite a bit better then the previous one. If you have any ideas for future features, or if you discover any bugs please feel free to contact me.
