#jquery.bgpos.js

##Purpose jQuery does not support animating the css property background-position with it's standard animate() method. This plug-in will allow you to do that.

##How To Use There is a demo application included in the repo. To use the demo application, it will have to be served by a web-server and opened in your browser. I recommend XAMPP in Windows, or a standard LAMP stack with Apache in *nix.

$(function() {
		
	$("#demo").hover(function(){
		$(this).animate({ backgroundPosition : "201 0"});
	}, 
	function(){
		$(this).stop()
		$(this).animate({ backgroundPosition : "0 0"});
	});
	
});

##Compatibility Currently tested with:

• jQuery versions:
  • 1.7.2
  • 1.8.2
• Browsers:
  • Firefox 16
  • Chrome 22
  • Internet Explorer 9 (in standards mode)

The original jquery.bgpos by Alexander Farkas is hosted at http://code.google.com/p/exteenscript/downloads/detail?name=jquery.bgpos.js&can=2

It is not maintained as far as I can tell and is currently incompatible with jQuery 1.8.x. You can read my original blog post here: http://nelsonwells.net/2012/08/using-bgpos-js-with-jquery-18
