Flip is a jQuery plugin that will flip easily your elements in four directions.

Like every jquery plugin, just chain it:

$("#flipbox").flip({
	direction:'tb'
})

Add content params in this way:

$("#flipbox").flip({
	direction:'tb',
	content:'this is my new content'
})

There are three available callbacks: onBefore, onAnimation, onEnd

$("#flipbox").flip({
	direction:'tb',
	onBefore: function(){
			console.log('before starting the animation');
	},
	onAnimation: function(){
			console.log('in the middle of the animation');
	},
	onEnd: function(){
			console.log('when the animation has already ended');
	}
})

There's an "hidden" method called revertFlip: as it says, revert a flip to the previous state

$("#flipbox").revertFlip()

Here are all options available:

• content - define the new content of the flipped box. It works with: html, text or a jQuery object ex:$("selector")
• direction - the direction where to flip. Possible values: 'tb', 'bt', 'lr', 'rl' (default: 'tb')
• color - Flip element ending background color (default: '#999')
• speed - Speed of the two parts of the animation (default: 500)
• onBefore - Synchronous function excuted before the animation starts
• onAnimation - Synchronous function excuted at half animation
• onEnd - Synchronous function excuted after animation's end

• bgColor - the inital (pre-flip) background color (default: the targets 'background-color' OR '#999')
• dontChangeColor - does not apply the 'color' option to the finished result (default: false)

• revertFlip()
• flip()
