jParallax enables you to make really awesome 3D feeling picture effects by turning a selected element into a ‘window’, or viewport, and all its children into absolutely positioned layers that can be seen through the viewport. These layers move in response to the mouse, and, depending on their dimensions (and options for layer initialisation), they move by different amounts, in a parallaxy kind of way. Check out the demo.
The diagram abovet illustrates what Parallax does to the html:
<ul id=“parallax”> <li></li> <li></li> </ul>
