  • Best Free CSS Editor

    I still stick by Komodo Edit and Komodo IDE. You'll struggle to find a difference between them, but the Edit version is free, its always baffled me why i upgrades to the IDE since i have never found anything that i couldn't do in Edit.

  • Social Marketing

    @Joshwhite Ive found there really is no benefit to having 50000 likes over having 1 like, its simply a marketing dick measuring contest.. But it does mean that there is 49,999 more people seeing your pages posts.

  • how to play flv in html5

    @harry_matharoo to convert videos to swf, just open them in flash and export as swf, depending on your version, it may be 'compile' in the file menu.

  • Menu Split by Logo

    For a CMS, unless you want to write code for it to output each li with its own class, using #primary_nav li + li + li {margin-left: 255px;} is the cleanest way.

    Shouldn't matter, but if your experiencing slow load times, look into CloudFare. Danny.

    @chanman - what platform are you using ? Wordpress? If so - http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gd-star-rating/ That will allow you to set up a rating system for rating comments, or rating posts, the brief says its advanced, but its pretty simple…

  • Stop CSS 3 animation

    I don't think you can do it in css as there is no parent selector. Take a look at this i found on jsfiddle. http://jsfiddle.net/UFepV/ That should run it when not in a hover state, and pause all anims when its hovered over.

  • Overlay image on hover?

    @Watson90 http://j.mp/Yp02T2 is the coding so far, and http://j.mp/ZTMvU2 is the design. You can see at the bottom of the code where the community news column is, the content is wrapped in #content, and the community feed is wrapped in #communit…

  • Overlay image on hover?

    Okay, i managed to get it so that when you hover over the #overlay, it is working and showing the background image, but its not over the top of the post image. :/

  • Resize CSS problem

    For the button try locking it to the top of the div, so it expands downwards. #button:hover {position:absolute; toptop:0;}
