Our goal today is to create a slide out box with either jQuery or plain Javascript. We need a div with two sub div's a little bit of css and Javascript or jQuery for the click event, with hover you could build it only with html and css3 however in this article we will use the click event.
As always you can download the tutorial with all files here or checkout the demo in your browser.
But let's go through step by step.
<div id="jak_boxchanger">
<div id="jak_boxcontent">

Vanilla Javascript
As you can see there is no different in the HTML markup, sweet!
#jak_boxchanger {
position: fixed;
top: 145px;
left: -305px;
z-index: 9998;
}
#jak_boxbutton {
float: left;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #ffffff;
-webkit-border-radius: 0 5px 5px 0;
border-radius: 0 5px 5px 0;
width: 30px;

background-color: #ffffff;
width: 280px;
height: 450px;
padding: 10px;
-webkit-border-radius: 0 0 5px 0;
border-radius: 0 0 5px 0;
overflow: auto;
-webkit-box-shadow: 2px 2px 10px 1px #333333;
box-shadow: 2px 2px 10px 1px #333333;
}
jQuery
#jak_boxchanger {
position: fixed;
top: 145px;
right: -305px;
z-index: 9998;
-webkit-transition-duration: 0.3s;
-moz-transition-duration: 0.3s;

box-shadow: -2px 2px 10px 1px #333333;
}
.moveboxchanger {
right: 0 !important;
}
Vanilla Javascript
Here we will use some CSS3 for the pure Javascript version plus an extra class we will use later in the Javascript markup.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.4.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#jak_boxbutton').on('click',function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
if ($('#jak_boxchanger').css('left') == '0px') {
$('#jak_boxchanger').animate({left: '-305px'}, 300);
} else {
$('#jak_boxchanger').animate({left:0}, 300);
}
});
});
jQuery
var boxclosed = true;
var el = document.getElementById("jak_boxbutton1");
var el1 = document.getElementById("jak_boxchanger1");
el.addEventListener("click", function() {
if (boxclosed) {
// add class
if (el1.classList) {
el1.classList.add("moveboxchanger");
} else {
el1.className += ' ' + "moveboxchanger";
}
boxclosed = false;
} else {
// remove class
if (el1.classList) {
el1.classList.remove("moveboxchanger");
} else {
el1.className = el.className.replace(new RegExp('(^|\b)' + className.split(' ').join('|') + '(\b|$)', 'gi'), ' ');
}
boxclosed = true;
}
});
Vanilla Javascript
Both are very simple and easy to understand the code for Vanilla Javascript is slightly longer however you don't need to implement the jQuery library and rendering pure Javascript is way faster than doing it with jQuery. Which one you use for your project is up to you...
