more css interaction from tantek

September 12th, 2006 by eric

speaking of cutting edge (if we weren’t, we should have been):

check out this little presentation by tantek. it has some problems, but the concept is fascinating from a css standpoint. Basically he has all the content in one page with valid markup - but only allows you to see it one ’slide’ at a time using CSS to hide everything else.

on the other hand, he has to use JavaScript for the onClick effect - so i suppose the interaction isn’t actually CSS based. it can also a confusing interface - if you accidentaly click on a link you are sent out of the site, so you have to be careful where you click.

so i’m not exactly sure what the advantage is here (maybe loadtime per slide? click-anywhere navigation?), but i like it for the sake of CSS exploration.
