Page sliding on a desktop webapp similar to iPhone webapps

Question

I've looked at ciui and really liked the way that certain links will slide out the existing content and load new content into the DOM, or slide back.

Is there a way to quickly create a work-a-like with the additional animation support in jQuery, scriptaculous, or MooTools?

Answer 1

I would take a look at the jQuery UI project and see if anything there does what you need. The best code is code you don't have to write. :)

Answer 2

http://code.google.com/p/iui/

This is the best iPhone javascript library I've seen so far, and it does page sliding.

Answer 3

For anyone coming to this very old discussion, http://www.jqtouch.com/ is a more recent solution that works very well for this. It's a jQuery plugin.
