JQueryFluidFont

Homepage: http://foswiki.org/Extensions/JQueryPlugin
Author(s): Michael Daum
Version: 1.0

Recompute the font size of an element based on its width.

Usage

JavaScript API

The fluidfont() plugin attaches to a jQuery object and recomputes its font-size based on its width. You can specify a width at which the original font size should be used. When the element is resized the ratio between width and font-size is maintained continuously.

Parameters:

  • width: standard width that will show the original font-size
  • min: minimal font size in px
  • max: maximal font size in px

Foswiki integration

FluidFont is activated for any html element that has got the jqFluidFont class. Options can be specified using JQueryMetadata.

Examples
