This post is just a link to a demo really, as I’ve only just got my head around the code myself, so it’s too soon to start explaining how it all works!
Besides, if this is something you’d find useful on your site, I’d rather quote you for developing it than give it away!
The background of this particular demo is that I’ve been building an advertising/affiliate scheme section on MatchMkr, and wanted to provide clients using that a way to target their advertising based on their own criteria matched against the metrics we store in our member database.
I’d first seen this effect when investigating advertising opportunities on Facebook, and was so taken with it, that I just had to develop my own version!
