I am looking to add some randomness to the movement of each div on a webpage. The current code I have moves all divs together, but I want them to move independently in different directions. How can I achieve this unique motion for each div?
$(document).ready(function(){
animateDiv();
});
function makeNewPosition(){
// Retrieve viewport dimensions (considering the size of the div)
var h = $(window).height() - 50;
var w = $(window).width() - 50;
var nh = Math.floor(Math.random() * h);
var nw = Math.floor(Math.random() * w);
return [nh,nw];
}
function animateDiv(){
var newq = makeNewPosition();
var oldq = $('.a').offset();
var speed = calcSpeed([oldq.top, oldq.left], newq);
$('.a').animate({ top: newq[0], left: newq[1] }, speed, function(){
animateDiv();
});
};
function calcSpeed(prev, next) {
var x = Math.abs(prev[1] - next[1]);
var y = Math.abs(prev[0] - next[0]);
var greatest = x > y ? x : y;
var speedModifier = 0.1;
var speed = Math.ceil(greatest/speedModifier);
return speed;
}
