    ive never used deferred so i have no clue what it does. when you say have the images load, do you mean have the thumbnails load? what about the rest of the info and the google maps?

  • jquery on click events

    yeah but if I use class .toggle, I dont have to write anymore code! I just add class toggle and bam! -that element now has jquery attached to it. Its similar to oocss... I guess... instead of having to put a few elements into the $(), i put one ele…

  • jquery on click events

    well when I use jquery I use special classes. that way my javascript is neat. I care more for my js being neat than my html because js can get cumbersome.

  • nested columns

    oh, I took off the margins.... I dont normally put color on the modules or columns. only whats inside that. I also got rid of padding top and bottom on modules because it ruins my baseline. I added a few more sized columns (cause my thumbnails were…

  • nested columns

    its looks beautiful. so instead of having padding on one side as the gutter you placed padding on both sides and together they make the gutter. this keeps everything even. it involves another layer of divs but I guess its worth it. quite cool. thank…

  • nested columns

    interesting paulie. you do it differently. you are not suppose to take off padding from last-of-type when you want padding on the outside. instead you use something like: what chris does: .grid-pad{ padding: 20px 0 20px 20px; } notice the 0? thats…

  • nested columns

    ok so if | = padding: | 3/4 | 1/4| in the 3/4 col we have: ||1/4|1/4|1/4|1/4 that first | you see above is the padding of the outer div + this 1/4 padding and its no longer aligned. looks like: |3/4| ||1/4| (see double padding makes the gr…
