Adds a pulsating effect to elements. It started out as an experiment with outline-offset by Kilian Valkhof. By animating it you can create a pulsating effect that's useful for focussing attention to a certain part of your webpage in a subtle way.
See the examples.
$ bower install jquery.pulsate
$(element).pulsate({
color: $(this).css("background-color"), // set the color of the pulse
reach: 20, // how far the pulse goes in px
speed: 1000, // how long one pulse takes in ms
pause: 0, // how long the pause between pulses is in ms
glow: true, // if the glow should be shown too
repeat: true, // will repeat forever if true, if given a number will repeat for that many times
onHover: false // if true only pulsate if user hovers over the element
});
