This project was heavily inspired by humanmsg project for jQuery. I really liked the project but I wanted to remove the jQuery dependency, add support for CSS transitions, and have more control over the timing.

Humane JS tries to be as unobtrusive as possible to the user experience while providing helpful information that is clear and grabs the users attention. It is framework independent. Customizable.

Setup is simple:

• Download tar/zip
• Select a theme from humane-themes dir. (or use bold-dark.css if you want the one on the demo)
• Include the theme CSS in your page
• Include humane.js in your page

You can see a demo and usage here

Got a neat theme/animation, love to see it. View humane-themes/bold-dark.css for an template to get started. Please fork the project and submit your themes and then update the wiki page with a screenshot and/or description. Please check that your theme is usable (even if degraded) on IE6+.

Humane has been well tested for the following browsers.

• Internet Explorer 6+
• Firefox 3+
• Chrome 9+
• Safari 3+
• Opera 10+

Expiremental support for mobile:

• iOS 4+
• Android 2+

Many thanks to the JS/Browser wizards that helped make this better, community rocks!
