Earlier this week I came across the jQuery Pageslide plugin via Ajaxian and was impressed with the design. I set about using it to display help messages to the user for a site I am working on.
It worked well and all but I found that you can only have one pageslide per page. Say you want to have multiple links one one page that each invoke a page slide but with different settings. So I made some changes to the plugin to allow multiple pageslides per page. The demo includes a version of page slide that allows multiple pageslide links per page and allows them all to have their own individual settings. These all point to the same secondary page but could just as well point to different pages. Currently they all share the same css styles.
I made it so that only one pageslide can be open at a time. Clicking on a pageslide link while a pageslide is already open will do nothing. I also included a way to close the currently open pageslide from javascript.
