The world's okayest responsive navigation

#okayNav jQuery Plugin You know how navigations have only a desktop and a mobile state, right? I thought, "this might cost people money because it requires additional click for users to reach even the most important pages."

This navigation aims at progressively collapsing navigation links into an off-screen navigation instead of doing it for all the links at the same time. Check out this example:

How to Use

This is the code used in the example:

<header id="header">
    <a class="site-logo" href="#">
       Logo
    </a>
    
    <nav role="navigation" id="nav-main" class="okayNav">
        <ul>
            <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Shop</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Blog</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Services</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Contacts</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">About us</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Testimonials</a></li>
        </ul>
    </nav>
</header><!-- /header -->

Include the CSS:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/okayNav.css" media="screen">

Include the library:

<script src="js/jquery.okayNav.min.js"></script>

And here's the JS to initialize it:

var navigation = $('#nav-main').okayNav();

Dependencies

okayNav depends on jQuery. Tested with jQuery 1.10+ but should work with lower versions. The stylization of okayNav comes in a commented LESS and CSS.

Browser Support

okayNav supports IE9+, Firefox, Chrome. Transitions work in IE10+.

Default options

	parent : '', // will call nav's parent() by default

    toggle_icon_content: '<span /><span /><span />',
    beforeopen : function() {}, // Will trigger before the nav gets opened
    open : function() {}, // Will trigger after the nav gets opened
    beforeclose : function() {}, // Will trigger before the nav gets closed
    close : function() {}, // Will trigger after the nav gets closed
});
