Posted by Praveen Gowda I V in Facebook, Jquery, Others, Tutorials, Web Design on December 11, 2011
Whenever you are online on Facebook and if there are any notifications then you would have noticed the small blue box on the left bottom alerting you the notification live, this is what Facebook calls as the beeper.
In this tutorial I am going to teach you to create such a beeper found on Facebook.
If you are still wondering on what beeper I am talking about, then look at the below image to know what we are going to create at the end of this tutorial

JavaScript
We use jQuery to:
- display the beeper on clicking on the button
- hide the beeper after five seconds
- prevent the hiding of beeper on mouseover
- hide the beeper after five seconds of mouseout
$(document).ready(function () {
// set the time for the beeper to be displayed as 5000 milli seconds (5 seconds)
var timerId, delay = 5000;
var a = $("#BeeperBox"),
b = $("a.control");;
//function to destroy the timeout
function stopHide() {
clearTimeout(timerId);
}
//function to display the beeper and hide it after 5 seconds
function showTip() {
a.show();
timerId = setTimeout(function () {
a.hide();
}, delay);
}
//function to hide the beeper after five seconds
function startHide() {
timerId = setTimeout(function () {
a.hide();
}, delay);
}
//display the beeper on cliking the "show beeper" button
b.click(showTip);
//Clear timeout to hide beeper on mouseover
//start timeout to hide beeper on mouseout
a.mouseenter(stopHide).mouseleave(startHide);
$('.beeper_x').click(function () {
//hide the beeper when the close button on the beeper is clicked
$("#BeeperBox").hide();
});
});
