Create Animated Skill Bar Using jQuery, HTML And CSS

To Create Animated Skill Bar It Takes Only Two Steps:-

  1. Make a HTML file and define markup and scripting
  2. Make a CSS file and define styling

Step 1. Make a HTML file and define markup and scripting

We make a HTML file and save it with a name skill_bar.html

<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="skill_bar_style.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
	
$("#skillbar_php").animate({width:'85%'},1500);
$("#skillbar_asp").animate({width:'55%'},1500);
$("#skillbar_jsp").animate({width:'75%'},1500);

});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">

<div class="skill_name" id="skill_php">PHP</div>
<div class="skillbar_wrapper">
 <div class="skillbar_bar" id="skillbar_php"></div>
 <div class="skill_bar_percent">85%</div>
</div>

<div class="skill_name" id="skill_asp">ASP</div>
<div class="skillbar_wrapper">
 <div class="skillbar_bar" id="skillbar_asp"></div>
 <div class="skill_bar_percent">55%</div>
</div>

<div class="skill_name" id="skill_jsp">JSP</div>
<div class="skillbar_wrapper">
 <div class="skillbar_bar" id="skillbar_jsp"></div>
 <div class="skill_bar_percent">75%</div>
</div>

</div>
</body>
</html>
