iLikeIt! is a simple, proof of concept, image voting system packed as a jQuery plugin.
It is built on top of the Carousel component, part of Twitter's Bootstrap library, and based on web framework Asp.Net MVC 3.
All you have to do is just create the HTML to build a Bootstrap's Carousel and in your javascript code, call the plugin like follows:
$(function () {
var options = {
postUrl : "/Home/RegisterVote" // You need to specify a POST URL to invoke your server side code
}
$("#myCarousel").iLikeIt(options);
});
Upon voting, the plugin extracts the ID of the image being voted and passes it, along with the vote cast by the user, to the server.
- jQuery (version 1.7.2 as of now)
- Bootstrap (carousel.js and transition.js in the detail + the css)
