Type the content of an HTML element, character by character

There's a few plugins out there allowing you to type some text character by character, however I haven't been able to find one which would allow my to type HTML elements along with the text. You can even nest the HTML elements inside and it will still work.

It replaces all the HTML tags inside the element with a placeholder character. When finding this character whilst typing the text, it will insert the element and call .typewrite() on it recursively and wait until the context of the element is typed out to continue typing the rest of the text.

Install using bower: bower install jquery-typewrite
Or using npm: npm install jquery-typewrite
Or just by downloading the tarball

The .typewrite() function allows a callback which will be called once all the text has been typed.

	$("#my-novel").typewrite();

	$("#my-short-story").typewrite(function() { console.log('done'); });	

There is also a .stopTypewrite() which will render all the content immediately and call the callback if one has been set.

	$("#my-novel").stopTypewrite();

Type: Integer
Default: 60

The amount of time, in milliseconds, between each character.

Type: String
Default: ¶

The character used for replacing HTML tags. If you wish to use the default character ¶ in your text, you can choose your own by setting this option.
If you set this option don't forget to set it too if you call .stopTypewrite().

	$("#my-novel").typewrite({ delay: 180 }, function () {
		console.log("All the text has been typed");
	});
