Do you know a website that implements a menubar at an angle between 0 and 90 degrees?

Question

I was asked to implement a menu bar that is neither horizontal nor vertical. Here are two example buttons:

This is something new to me, so to learn how to make this work I'm looking for a site (or better yet, a tutorial) that uses a similar menu bar. Any ideas?

Answer 1

You should look at here

http://www.useragentman.com/blog/2010/03/09/cross-browser-css-transforms-even-in-ie/

or use like this

Update:

/* for firefox, safari, chrome, etc. */
-webkit-transform: rotate(-90deg);
-moz-transform: rotate(-90deg);
/* for ie */
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(rotation=3);
/* for opera */
-o-transform: rotate(-90deg);

see example http://jsbin.com/ajoqe/4

update 3

or use this http://code.google.com/p/jquery-rotate/

Two JavaScript image handling implementations are supported:

1. using DXImageTransform filter for Microsoft Internet Explorer
2. using Canvas object for other browsers

The library has been tested with:

* Mozilla FireFox 2.0.0.2
* Internet Explorer 7.0
* Opera 9.1 (note Opera 8 is not supported)

Answer 2

Just because the image is at an angle doesn't mean the hit area (the link) needs to be at an angle...
