Oscillating Bubble Using HTML 5

Introduction

In this article we are going to understand oscillating bubbles using HTML 5. In this section, an oscillating bubble will grow and shrink while displaying in the browser.

Here we will use some JavaScript and some styles along with HTML code. Just go through the steps to see how to create this application.

Let's see how the OscillatingBubble application can be created. To do so use the following steps.

Step 1 : Open a HTML editor or Visual Studio.

Open File menu ->select new ->Choose Website then.

This is where we will create the HTML5 application.

  • Go to Solution Explorer
  • Right-click on the Application name
  • Select Add-->add new item
  • Now in the window that opens, select an HTML page or new Web form
  • Rename it to oscillatingbubble.aspx

Step 2 : In this section we will create the style for the media and create the .css on the media screen. Put the given script in the Head section of the HTML or between the <head>--</head> tags. Here the CSS are used for design purposes.

CSS Script

<style>
body
{
  margin: 0px;
  padding: 0px;
  font-family: Comic Sans MS;
  outline-color: Yellow;
}
#Bubble
{
   border: 2px solid #9C9898;
   margin-top: 50px;
   margin-left: 60px;
   background-color: #00B2EE;
   box-shadow: 5px 5px 8px #222;
 }
.title
{
   text-align: center;
   font-family: Segoe UI Light, Arial, Helvetica;
   font-size: 2.2em;
   margin: 1em;
}
.info
{
   text-align: center;
   font-family: Segoe UI Light, Arial, Helvetica;
   font-size: 1.2em;
   margin: 0.25em;
}
</style>

Step 3 : In this part we need to work on some JavaScript. For fully understanding how the JavaScript works, download the attached .rar file and run the OscillatingBubble application.

The whole JavaScript looks as in the following.

<script>
        window.requestAnimFrame = (function (callback)
          {
         return window.requestAnimationFrame ||
                  window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame ||
                  window.mozRequestAnimationFrame ||
                  window.oRequestAnimationFrame ||
                  window.msRequestAnimationFrame ||
         function (callback)
          {
                 window.setTimeout(callback, 1000 / 60);
           };
       })();
        function animate(canvas)
        {
          var context = canvas.getContext("2d");
          var date = new Date();
          var time = date.getTime();
            // update
          var widthScale = Math.sin(time / 200) * 0.1 + 0.9;
          var heightScale = -1 * Math.sin(time / 200) * 0.1 + 0.9;
            // clear
           context.clearRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
           // draw
          context.beginPath();
          context.save();
          context.translate(canvas.width / 2, canvas.height / 2);
          context.scale(widthScale, heightScale);
          context.arc(0, 0, 65, 0, 2 * Math.PI, false);
          context.restore();
          context.fillStyle = "#FFF68F";
          context.fill();
          context.lineWidth = 2;
          context.strokeStyle = "#555";
          context.stroke();
          context.beginPath();
          context.save();
          context.translate(canvas.width / 2, canvas.height / 2);
          context.scale(widthScale, heightScale);
          context.arc(-30, -30, 15, 0, 2 * Math.PI, false);
          context.restore();
          context.fillStyle = "white";
          context.fill();
            // request new frame
          requestAnimFrame(function ()
           {
             animate(canvas);
           });
       }
        window.onload = function ()
         {
            var canvas = document.getElementById("Bubble");
            animate(canvas);
        };
</script>

Step 4 : In this section we are going to become familiar with the body part of HTML scripting. Replace this script from the body section of the oscillatingbubble.aspx page. Here we pass a #Bubble in the canvas tag.

<body style="background-color: #D1D1D1"><center>
    <h1>Oscillating Bubble </h1></center>
   <hr />
        <canvas id="Bubble" width="500" height="200">
        </canvas>
        </center>
    </body>


Step 5 : The complete code for the
OscillatingBubble application.

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="oscillatingbubble.aspx.cs" Inherits="bouncinground._Default" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <style>
       Copy and paste step 2 here  
    <script>
    
Copy and paste step 3 here
    </script>
    </head>
    <body style="background-color: #D1D1D1"><center>
    <h1>Oscillating Bubble </h1></center>
   <hr />
        <canvas id="Bubble" width="500" height="200">
        </canvas>
        </center>
    </body>
</html>

Step 6 : Output Press F5

Note :
For the accurate output of HTML5 applications, you must have the Google Chrome browser in your PC. You
will see the oscillating bubble will grow and shrink as we run the application in the browser.

This is first phase of Bubble.

This is the second phase of Bubble.

As above given, the process will repeatedly perform the same.
