Question

I’m searching for existing scripts that will animate a vertical text menu by blurring text and zooming it according to the mouse pointer.

I’m trying to accomplish these actions:

1. OS X-like movement on mouse hover that can ‘zoom’ the text in and out
2. In an un-focused state, the text would be blurred
3. When a user moved their pointer closer to the text, the text would sharpen.

Here’s a Flash example that demonstrates some of the effects, but I’d really prefer to use JavaScript and not use ‘down’, ‘up’ and ‘select’ buttons, naturally.

Answer 1

I’m not sure that you can do this in Javascript…
