Responsive design has been a blessing to web crafters everywhere. The web, however, was meant to be read, not squished. jquery.wanker.js is a tiny (549 bytes minified) jQuery plugin that reveals a public service announcement when people start excessively resizing their desktop browser as they try to see your responsive breakpoints.
jquery.wanker.js is the perfect easter egg plugin for designers, photographers, writers, and other creative people with a sense of humor displaying their work on the web wishing their viewers to focus more on their work, and less on the magic of media queries.
Assuming you’re already using jQuery, include the file in your <head>
:
<head>
<script src="jquery.wanker.min.js"></script>
</head>
<div class="wanker" data-wanker>
<div class="wanker-content">
<h1>The web was meant to be read, not squished.</h1>
<p>Prevent excessive browser resizing and get people back to reading.</p>
</div>
</div>
$(function() {
$('[data-wanker]').wanker();
});
The message will show up after 1 second of continuous browser resizing, and will disappear 1.5 seconds later. Prefer to choose your own delay and duration? No problem!
$(function() {
$('[data-wanker]').wanker({delay: 5000, duration: 5000});
});
