Javascript for notifications (alerts) for Twitter Bootstrap

bootstrap-notifications.js

/*
I created the following javascript to use bootstrapt's notifications through Javascript.
If you like it you may consider adding it to bootstrapt. Feel free to modify if necessary. 
Be sure you define a div #notification-area, where the notifications are going to be displayed by default.

I use it with jQuery 1.7.1 but it should work with older versions. Is  also use jquery.hotkeys.js ( https://github.com/jeresig/jquery.hotkeys ) for block messages hotkeys

In the examples, you miss a comma between "primary" callback". The opts parameter is also mandatory as it complains (or you should check it is defined first). There is no styling in the div. The div pushes everything down (does not seem like a popup). getPreventDefault() is deprecated. Use defaultPrevented instead. Lots wrong with this cute little library.
