    Thoughts on Twitter Bootstrap

    <rant> They're overused, bloated, and in my experience, have created more problems/headaches than just writing my own code. Your experience may be different, and that's cool, but I've spent more time troubleshooting why something is happening than anything else when I've used a framework. I...

    jQuery DIV only transistion

    Well, it just looks the same, because the 2 divs you have encompass the entire page. What effect, exactly are you looking for?

    RSS is Dead, Long Live RSS

    Truth be told, HW. Your posts have been pretty spammy of late. If you want people to provide constructive comments, perhaps you should too.

    Website needs Judged, Pretty Please

    The best way to get the best possible site is to hire out. With that said, I suspect that's not going to work for you. In that case, if you must have a low cost solution that you can easily work with, the least bad of the online WYSIWYG deals is, IMHO Squarespace. But, I want to emphasize that...

    Simple answer: flash. It's crap.

    Help needed from a volunteer WEB/player DEVELOPER/programmer (Charity project)

    The people you've worked with so far haven't left because they didn't have the skills. They left because what you're asking them to do for free would normally cost several tens of thousands of dollars and be accomplished by large, multi-disciplined teams. I do at least one, but usually two...

    Mobile site - do you have to use a template?

    Part of the problem is we've reached a point where everyone thinks they need to use a framework, in most cases Twitter Bootstrap, for EVERYTHING. Then, every dang mobile site looks just like the mobile version of Twitter. It isn't that they're using templates, it's just that we've reached a...

    How to Restore Image on Set Text Container Behavior

    BLUF: Select only the image you want to hide in your CSS. Selectors, and understanding how they work is the crux of CSS. If you need to target something differently, use a class or child selector or any of a ridiculously large number of possibilities. When someone writes code for you without...

    How to Restore Image on Set Text Container Behavior

    Can I impress upon you that there is a much easier, more performant way to do this? In fact, you'd have no need to use javascript at all. All the magic happens using the CSS :hover pseudo class. All you'd have to do is this in your HTML: <div class="hover_thing"> <p>The text you want the...

    Idea I need help materializing

    This has been done, so it's certainly possible. In fact, there are sites, like koding.com and cloud9.io that have in-browser bash command lines. I would venture, though I don't know for sure that with javascript, some ajax magic and some kind of server-side scripting language (PHP, Ruby, ASP...

    New Website Design Company - Need Reviews

    It took me a while to pick it up mostly because 1) I didn't know any PHP & 2) until about 18 months ago, scripting languages were a bit beyond my grasp. I've since had my "aha!" moment, and have picked up JS and am working on learning PHP. Haven't used Joomla since 1.5, so I really don't know...

    New Website Design Company - Need Reviews

    The first CMS I developed themes for was Joomla (well, Mambo, actually, but back then the difference wasn't huge). I found WP to be about the same level of difficulty, but way more powerful. The fine-tuned control over content display in the theme itself is pretty good. Contrasted with Joomla...
