Question

I have the need to find a jQuery-UI widget/control to do Twitter UI-like updates. What I mean by this is when a Twit comes in, it replaces the one at the op of the list, pushing others downward in the browser UI. Does anyone know of such a widget or failing that, how to do it in Javascript?

Thanks

It’s simple in jquery…

HTML

<div id="tweets">
    <div>Tweet 1</div>
    <div>Tweet 2</div>
</div>

javascript

$(function() {
  //Get new tweet however
    var newtweet = "New Tweet"

    $("<div>"+newtweet+"</div>").prependTo("#tweets").hide().slideDown(200);
});
