I don't know if anyone here has seen the BBC Android app but basically each news section has its own independent horizontal scrolling window. I really like this but haven't quite figured out how to do it. Has anyone seen it? How does it work?

Thank you

This is what I have done so far but for some reason its not picking up the javascript. Does anyone know how I can find it to reconnect it?

Chrome's console says

/Design/:11Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined

Erm... and that means?

It should look something like this My link

well your source is telling the page to look on your hard disk for the jquery file

and also note on theirs that the css file is before the javascript

Your link to the jquery lib is still pointing at your computer

 

try using this

 

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

I think I might reject this idea. It doesn't look so good on the mobile. I've been looking around for horizontal scrolling but can't really find anything. Have you seen the BBC app?

Yes, I have on an iPod Touch. Does something like this work with touch? http://codecanyon.net/item/jquery-horizontal-image-scroller-w-lightbox/112734

 

Try the demo and play with the options to remove the arrows and stuff. Sadly the demo is auto only but there must be something out there. Would just a div that is wider than the page width and with no scrollbars be touchable/scrollable?

Presumably I wouldn't need jquery/javascript to do this? Just use divs?

Ah I have found something that is exactly what I am looking for (best view on a mobile) My link, have tried to out it in my site but it can't find the js. How can I link it?

 

I'm not too sure if this is the only problem.
