I am totally new to jQuery and starting out basically so please forgive if this question sounds amateurish or stupid. Any how I want to the header and footer of the page to remain static but the center contents of the page to slide in from the right side when page loads. Here is the page which does exactly that : flooring-by-design

I have looked into slide down function of jQuery and animate function but slidedown slides from top-bottom and I don't want that. What should I do?

My content goes like this:

<div class="container">
    <h1 class='logo'>Site Name</h1>
    <div class='bcontent'>
        <div id="one">One Content</div>
        <div id="two">Two</div>
        <div id="three">Three</div>
    </div>
    <footer>Copy rights</footer>
</div>

Div one two and three are the ones which I want to slide in nicely on page load. Just like the example link.

You can do this using jQuery.

Basically the content is set at an offset of 800px from the left initially using CSS. Then using jQuery animate, we slide-in the contents till the offset from left is 0px. You can increase or decrease the duration to alter the speed of the slide-in.

jQuery

$(document).ready(function() {

    $("#one").animate({left: "0"}, {
    duration: 2000       
    });
    $("#two").animate({left: "0"}, {
    duration: 2250
    });
    $("#three").animate({left: "0"}, {
    duration: 2500        
    });
});

CSS

.bcontent > div{
    position: relative;
    display: inline-block; /* to display the 3 div's in same line */
    height: 200px; /* height, width and border just added for demo, not mandatory */
    width: 100px;
    border: 1px solid black;
    left: 110%; /* Added to avoid the width issue pointed out by DRP96 */
}
.bcontent{
    width: 100%;
    overflow: hidden; /* added to make the content hidden initially and avoid scroll-bar */
}

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("#one").animate({
    left: "0"
  }, {
    duration: 2000
  });
  $("#two").animate({
    left: "0"
  }, {
    duration: 2250
  });
  $("#three").animate({
    left: "0"
  }, {
    duration: 2500
  });
});

footer {
  bottom: 0px;
  font-size: 20px;
}
.bcontent {
  width: 100%;
  overflow: hidden;
}
.bcontent > div {
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
  height: 200px;
  width: 100px;
  left: 110%;
  border: 1px solid black;
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis./ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="row">

  <h1 class='logo'>Site Name</h1>

  <div class='bcontent'>
    <div id="one" class="span4">One Content</div>
    <div id="two" class="span4">Two</div>
    <div id="three" class="span4">Three</div>
  </div>
  <footer>Copy rights</footer>
</div>

<div class="container">
<h1 class='logo'>Site Name</h1>

<div class='bcontent'>
<div id="one">One Content</div>
<div id="two">Two</div>
<div id="three">Three</div>
 </div>

<footer>Copy rights</footer>

 </div>
