CSS Variables Jan 8, 09, 10:57 a.m.

I was just doing some reading on css3.info about the neat fun stuff in store(and currently working) for css.

In regards to variables in css, I am personally 100% for it. I've always wished I could use variables to define colors along with other things. There apparently is some opposition to variables in CSS, but I'm not sure why.

Just wondering what other QBN people thought of variables in CSS.

T-Shirt Prices Dec 31, 08, 6:36 a.m.

I was going to buy this shirt...until I realized it was $32.00. I mean shit, That's fucking high for a t-shirt. I have trouble paying any more that $20.00 for a t-shirt, but $32.00. Why?

Email format? Dec 31, 08, 6:32 a.m.

My email signature is as follows:

Name
Email
Phone

Website

Personally, when I see graphics as signatures I cringe. I think email signatures should be simple and never contain images. Just curious on other's views.

100% css height Dec 16, 08, 8:58 a.m.

Okay, I can't get this to work for the life of me. What I'm trying to do is make the right column div 100% height, but it stops at the end of the content. So far I have:

html, body {
height: 100%;
}

#container {
height: 100%;
}

#right_column {
float: right;
height: 100%;
}

There are other attributes to the styles, but they're not important. I can put a height in pixels and it works fine. I've found a few tutorials online and they all specify basically what I've done above. Also, I've tried using min-height in place of height in an array of different combinations, but none seem to work. The left column will always be quite longer than the right, so I need it to be 100% of the page. Thanks.

Office Party Dec 12, 08, 7:50 a.m.

My office party is tonight. My girlfriend is gonna be designated driver. I didn't wanna go at first, but it might be fun. Apparently there is some gifts to win. Plus an open bar.

test ssl without buying a certificate Dec 10, 08, 10:23 a.m.

I'm building a shopping cart and I am starting on the secured portion of the cart. I'm usuing PHP 5 / Apache / Mysql. Anyways, it's running on a test server and I would like to test of the https:// without actually purchasing a ssl certificate because the site still won't launch for a while and it's not needed yet.

I'm kinda stuck at the moment. Any help?

My boss has really been getting on my nerves lately. Just wanted to rant.

Flash mp3 player Nov 26, 08, 10:41 a.m.

Anyone know of a good flash based mp3 player similar to the one the use on myspace. I use the JW player for flash video. It can also be used for mp3's but I don't need the screen part of it. Just a player and a playlist.

potluck appreciation day Nov 25, 08, 8:22 a.m.

otherwise known as: everyone bring a dish to work and pig out day. I made a pumpkin roll, it's delicious. Generally, I'm very health conscious when eating, but today is pig out today. oh yeah!

Coaster Screen Printer Nov 6, 08, 10:44 a.m.

I need to get some drink coasters printed on. Anyone know anywhere good in the US? Other than my local screen printing shop that is.

Netscape 4.x ??? Oct 21, 08, 6:47 a.m.

I'm reading this article on A List Apart about CSS: http://www.alistapart.com/articl…

It's a good article, but they reference the netscape 4.x browser like it's still relevant. The website I'm currently working on is geared towards the 50+ crowd and the percentage of users using netscape is %.14. To top it off, the netscape version is 7.1 or 7.2. %0 use netscape 4.xx. So, why would anyone give 2 shits about Netscape 4.xx (or IE 5 for that matter).

Canadian Grandprix Dropped Oct 7, 08, 6:56 a.m.

Mother fuckers!!!!

This is utter bullshit. First the US Grand Prix is dropped and then the Canadian. What a bunch of twats. I'd like to kick Bernie Ecclestone right in the nuts. I was looking forward to going to Montreal next summer too. Oh, but Spain gets 2 races. Even if Formula isn't as popular in North America as Europe, there are still a lot of fans here.

QBN t-shirt Sep 24, 08, 8:02 a.m.

I'd like one or two. An official qbn person should get some printed. You can pre-order me 2.

build an iphone Sep 3, 08, 5:38 a.m.

I was at another forum and saw a post about someone selling iphone parts. I then started to consider maybe assembling one for fun from parts. I guess getting to OS would probably be pretty tough. Other than that, anyone think it's possible?

newstoday lol Aug 17, 08, 5:15 p.m.

I just started typing newstoday in to the url field instead of qbn.

It's been a crazy weekend.

Quick opinion needed Aug 15, 08, 1:22 p.m.

I'm off for the day in 10 min.

Do I: go skateboard 5 min away or go play 9 holes about 20 min away(only $5 to walk 9)?

quick!

rfactor Jun 25, 08, 11:18 a.m.

Anyone on here play rfactor racing sim online. Specifically the F1 version? You can paint different skins for the cars in photoshop. I just ordered it and can't wait to go and start working on paint jobs.

Apparently you can make your own tracks in 3dmax as well. It's more involved than painting skins but, sounds very interesting.

josef muller brockman prints Jun 22, 08, 7:24 p.m.

Anyone know of a good source for Josef Muller Brockman reprints? I've been trying to hunt some down but, haven't had any luck. Specifically, I'd like the beethoven print.

Thanks in advance.

Skateboarding Jun 11, 08, 12:30 p.m.

Skateboarding is pretty much more awesome than anything. Even girls. Well....yep girls too. Anyone else share my thoughts on the subject?

eh....I guess skateboarding and girls are tied. A girl you just met and have been with for a month or so though. Anything over 6 months, no way. Skateboarding wins.
