Slot Machine Javascript Text
Posted : admin On 3/17/2022jSlots is 2k of jQuery slot machine magic. It turns any list (<ol>
or <ul>
) into a slot machine!
Options
If the slot's content isn't defined when the element is included in the markup, or if the browser doesn't support slots, just contains the fallback content 'My default text'. To define the slot's content, we include an HTML structure inside the element with a slot attribute whose value is equal to the name of the. But a real slot machine doesn't just randomly display every possible combination. For example, if three sevens pays out more often than three cherries, then the slot machine is designed to show the three sevens much less frequently. After all, the goal of the slot machine is for the house to make money.
These are the options, with their default values, and what they do
Usage
May 23, 2011 Recently somebody talked to me about creating a slot machine. I looked on the web and could not find any good slot machine implementation in javascript. So I decided to write a quick one. My implementation uses jquery and a couple of jquery plugins for animation. Spritely is a wonderful jquery plugin for background animation.
Attach jQuery (successfully tested down to v1.4.1)
Attach jSlots plugin
Attach easing plugin (optional but HIGHLY recommended for nice animation)
Create a list and an element that will spin the slots
Target the list and make it a jSlot!
Styling is up to you, but jSlots supplies a jSlots-wrapper div around your lists that should get overflow: hidden
and a height set on it. Here are some recommended styles:
