Text that looks ‘imprinted’ aka White Lining?
Hey!
On certain website’s you’ll see text that looks like it’s been imprinted because of the white lining. Like on this tutorial website: http://tutorialzine.com/2009/11/beautiful-apple-gallery-slideshow/ The text: “A Beautiful Apple-style Slideshow Gallery With CSS & jQuery“. Does anyone know the HTML/CSS code to make this?
Thanks!

15″ Macbook Pro for Web Developers?
Hi,
Maybe in the near future i would like to upgrade my laptop for a 15″ Macbook Pro.
I do Php, Mysql, Javascript, html, css, jquery. does this program run on a mac?
is it more good to do programming on a mac or should i stick to windows?
Thanks

Administrator answers:
Ok I am going to tell you this right now, stay away from Macs. They are overpriced, costly to fix/maintain, have much fewer programs written for this, and Apple is a control freak that makes it difficult to do advanced things on there systems. That said I would also recommend staying away from Windows Vista, it is just horrible. However I do recommend Windows XP, Windows 7, and Ubuntu Linux for programmers for a huge number of reasons. If you are uncomfortable with getting down and dirty with the terminal from time to time then stick with Windows, otherwise check out Ubuntu (its free).
I spent 8 months programming on a Mac running OS X 10.5 and it was a very frustrating experience. I gave it a shot and was left wanting, a lot.

How can I fade my background with CSS or jQuery?
I want to fade my background images, short and simple xD Like on the skullcandy website, how it fades automatically, but I can’t find any results with Google (scary, I know). That’s simple enough, rite? I just can’t find it

Administrator answers:
The general idea would be to have a stack of images in your background (at least two images) you should be able to use position:absolute and set their left and top to 0, maybe use z-index to keep them at the back. Then have jquery animate their opacity:
$(‘#image1′).animate({
‘opacity’ : ’1.0′
});
Also if you need them to change every few seconds, use Javascript’s setTimeout() or setInterval()
Hope this helps you in the right direction.

Richard asks…
Books about HTML, CSS, JavaScript and jQuery?
I had a school project about making a site and those four are the languages I used.
I also have to specify a “bibliography” containing the sources that I used to learn those languages and since “random browsing for information on the Internet to learn the languages” isn’t something good to mention there I need you help.
I need you to list a lot of books (that are existing physically) that help you to learn those four languages.
Ex: “All about HTML by Mike”
Thanks.

Administrator answers:
Well this is not exactly a book but it is ONE website that does have great tutorials on those… I don’t know if you’ll be able to use it but its worth a try… Http://thenewboston.org/…good luck i guess…

Laura asks…
Help with CSS for jQuery Slideshow?
I am trying to make a website slideshow that fills up the entire browser window. Whenever I set the div equal to 100%, instead of the next image pushing the previous image away, the previous image flies away and then the next image appears. I have examples of how I want it to look (with static widths set) here: http://innovationwebs.com/test/sample1.html
And how it ends up looking (with my dynamic widths set): http://innovationwebs.com/test/sample2.html
Thanks in advance!
…and I forgot to actually ask my question. How can I achieve the effect shown in the first example with the width specifications in the second example?

Administrator answers:
Percentages are referenced to a browser’s viewport size if parent. Children are referenced to parent if inherited.
