  • flash anyone?

    yes it can be done, higher skill level than me though i'm afraid. basically you have two scenes (1 is the thumbnail, 2 is the 'lightbox' element) Then pretty much its a case of sync-ing the timelines. If you give me a couple of days…

  • Auto-moderation of Forums?

    There should be a set up option in the admin about links and words that you can moderate. I think Vanilla (and maybe phpBB) has the option to censor certain letters in words but allow you to still see the word (if you know what i mean). from the p…

  • issues with Firefox not displaying nested table within divs

  • Too many Div's

    No not a revelation i just found it interesting that someone who advocates using less divs (which i am trying to get to grips with - having suffered from div-itis in the past) is writing in a blog that is littered with them. But the author has resp…

  • Aminah Designs Website

    I agree with what the others have said, could i also include your 'Client Work' section. I thought that having 2 indentical images was a bit cheeky but then noticed in the info bar that one was a link to a business card and the other to …

    i think your problem lies in the div='push' for the sticker footer to work (using the info in the http://ryanfait.com/resources/footer-stick-to-bottom-of-page/) the height of the push has to be the same (equal to) the height of the foote…
