Callback functionality now available (onMeerkatShow)!

For more customization options, I’ve added a callback option to Meerkat.

For example, if you wanted to fade your content in with Meerkat, you could do the following:

$('#meerkat').meerkat({
	height: '120px',
	width: '100%',
	position: 'bottom',
	close: '.close-meerkat',
	dontShowAgain: '.dont-show',
	animationIn: 'slide',
	animationSpeed: 500,
	removeCookie: '.reset',
	onMeerkatShow: function() { $(this).animate({opacity: 'show'}, 1000); }
});

I’ve added a destroyMeerkat() method to the new release

Using the destroyMeerkat() method will remove all of meerkat’s wrappers and containers, leaving (but hiding) its contents.

Example:

$('.destroy').click(function(){
	$('#meerkat').destroyMeerkat();
});

Meerkat 1.3 released!

It’s been long over due, but I have finally found some time to update, upgrade, and release a new version of Meerkat. This is by far the best release yet. I’ve added tons of new functionality and features, as well as fixed some bugs from the previous releases.

Due to this release being a complete makeover, I am no longer supporting the earlier release. Please update to the new version, but beware of the option name changes while doing so.

As always, if you find a bug or have any issues with it, be sure to let me know.
