Hi People, its been a while since i’ve posted anything – its been a busy and hectic time here, just taking some time out on Sunday to post something for you that i found of interest.

Its a whole bunch of cool css stuff with links to each of them by smashing magazine, check it out here:

A couple of the links are broken, CSS-Submit Buttons and Drop Cap – Capital Letters with CSS – if you have these on your hard disk, give us a shout and we can repost it here for everyone to see (we’re never going to shut this site down).

One of my favourites is this one, just a simple nice alert message, looks nice and clean – great stuff:

And the css tabs are nifty as well:

Ok, time for some tea, i’ll be posting back again soon.

CSS-Tricks.com posted this great-looking apple-like css menu, which uses unordered lists – the only problem with it is that it doesn’t work in Internet Explorer yet (damn!) but i’ll have a go later at fixing it myself




Now with AJAX and some CSS-Trickery perhaps the web is becoming just as good as desktop, if not better than it.. if it wasn’t for these cross-browser woes

Web-based Itunes anyone?

Check out the advanced CSS navigation menu first before read the post! Advanced CSS Menu Trick is a new concept of navigation menu solution for modern browsers. Unlike any hovered on menu that changes background image or color only, Advanced CSS Menu Trick can fade out and roll over item on the menu change except the one you are hovering on. It helps visitors to more concentrate on the item they have selected on, and create a new look and feel for the site overall. The menu trick supports any modern browser like IE7, Safari and Firefox as well.

Accordion javascript allows areas of content to be hidden and then activated and shown using a mouse click. It’s widely used on sites where are tight on space or need lots of options on navigation menu.
