I'm guessing that this rather opportunistic company was monitoring domain renewals and spotted an opportunity . Then I got a rather bizarre looking email . It looked a lot like an invoice , and was sneakily designed and worded to look like a domain related issue . It uses lots of semi scare mongering terminology and shock value statements about offers

  • Using CSS Pseudo Elements :before And :after

    Updated: 2013-01-21 14:38:00
    The CSS pseudo elements, :before and :after, have been around since IE8. So, this is probably not news to many of you. But, for me personally, I just started using the :before and :after pseudo elements and I've been absolutely loving them! They making it much easier to keep design-centric elements out of your markup and in your CSS (where they belong). Anyway, I thought I'd put together a quick demo in case anyone else is late to the party. ... ead More raquo;

  • Exploring Directives, $scope, DOM Rendering, And Timing In AngularJS

    Updated: 2013-01-18 14:36:00
    AngularJS provides a powerful glue that binds your View Model ($scope) to your View (HTML) using an inline, declarative syntax. As directives get linked and your $scope values change, AngularJS works quickly to update the DOM (Document Object Model) as needed. At the same time, AngularJS also needs to alert Controllers to changes in the $scope. The timing of all of this can be more than a bit tricky to understand. As such, I wanted to take a quick look at how the DOM tree structure influences ... ead More raquo;

Especially when it comes to syncing the DOM with the view model (ie. $scope) shared by the various Controllers. At first, they mysterious nature of the syncing is delicious; but, when your application starts to use things like caching, localStorage, directives, and heavy client-side calculations, understanding how AngularJS renders DOM elements in ... ead More raquo;

  • Clearing Inline CSS Properties With jQuery

    Updated: 2013-01-15 14:01:00
    The other day, I found myself with an odd CSS problem that I had not encountered before (or at least not in a really long time); my CSS class properties were being overridden by inline style attributes left over from a jQuery animation. Specifically, jQuery left a "display" property on an element's style attribute which prevented the "display" property of my CSS classes from cascading. As of late, I've been trying hard to push all my formatting into CSS classes, which is why I've probably not ... ead More raquo;
