Contactable jQuery Plugin on The Right Side of Page

Posted March 12th, 2010 in Web development, jQuery

Contactable is a great jQuery plugin by Philip Beel to include a nice sliding contact form, even if you only understand a tiny bit of jQuery and PHP.

I needed to use this plugin for one of my project, but I want it to be on the right side of the page instead of left. In order to do this, you need to change a small portion of the CSS and JS files. No special skills required. Still, you can save your time since you can download it directly below:
