In the last version of my Google Translator widget for Opera I had to solve one problem – how to switch the focus between two textareas by clicking on a hotkey.
In this article I want to share jQuery script, that solves this problem. May be it will be usefull for someone.
We, web developers, are constantly faced with deficiencies of Internet Explorer, and CSS hacks allow to overcome them in most cases.
In this post I would like to group the personal CSS hacks for each of the 3 popular versions of IE. Most likely you already know the CSS hacks for IE6 and IE7, but for IE8 probably not. Therefore the focus of this article is on a personal CSS hack for Internet Explorer 8.
There is a simple way for creating cross-browser box-shadow in all modern and popular browsers including Internet Explorer (Opera only since 10.50 pre-alpha version). The essence of the solution is very similar to cross-browser border-radius, it also uses VML and behaviour.
Currently there are multiple variations for creating a HTML elements with rounded corners. The simplest of these is the method that uses CSS3.
Fortunately almost all modern browser (FireFox, Safari, Chrome and Opera since 10.50 pre-alpha) supports CSS3 border-radius, but unfortunately none of a versions of Internet Explorer (even IE8) does not support this property.
I very long time was waiting for a moment, when I can safely use the border-radius property on my sites. And this moment has finally has come – now we can make rounded corners in Internet Explorer with his means.
