Autobrowse jQuery plugin

This plugin adds automatic ajax loading of page content when the user scrolls the page, with built-in browser cache. More info in this blog post. Simply use autobrowse(options) on a container that you want to fill with content.

Changelog, download and docs: jquery.esn.autobrowse.js.

LICENCE: Do whatever you want with the code. I don't take any responsibility for how you use it.

Example usage:

$(".page .items").autobrowse(
    {
        url: function (offset)
        {
            return "http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?tags=cat&tagmode=any&format=json&jsoncallback=?";
        },
        template: function (response)
        {
            var markup='';
            for (var i=0; i<response.items.length; i++)
            {
                markup+='<a href="'+response.items[i].link+'"><img src="'+response.items[i].media.m+'" /></a>'
            };
            return markup;
        },
        itemsReturned: function (response) { return response.items.length; },
        offset: 0,
        max: 100,
        loader: '<div class="loader"></div>',
        useCache: true,
        expiration: 1
    }
);
    

Demo: Scroll down for more cats. Demo using Twitter API (New!)

Note that the demo url does not use offset in the url, so it loads the same data every time.
