  1. Thanks John. One thing I can't do with it though is make it have a third level popup. By adding hover to the second level I am able to popup the third level. But then it's not right. Depending, then you have to click to go out, unhover to lose the third, and click close to lose the second. If you could figure a way to click out and click close to come back in that would be cool...

  2. Off topic... Ben do you see the 1px off sprite buttons? Like the "add reply" at the top.

     

    OP, I looked into this a lot a little while back and couldn't get it accomplished. I narrowed it down to these two plugins. http://users.tpg.com.au/j_birch/plugins/superfish/ and http://cherne.net/brian/resources/jquery.hoverIntent.html

     

    I'll play along though because I too would like to add this to one of my demos.

  3. If you just give the thumbs a width the browser will automatically scale each thumb porportionately. Sounds like that is what your after. Although, I just usually make all the thumbs the same size. Makes it much easier to position. Plus looks better in my opinion. Sure the thumb will be a little skewed, but it's so small it usually doesn't matter. If you want 100% quality, you'll have make small thumbs in PS

  4. Occasionally, I will need to chat with people regarding school topics, teaching, and technical stuff. I would like to add a free chat app to my site so that people would not need to register but rather just pick a name and start chatting. I would like it to be simple but nice looking. Perhaps users can choose an avatar or font color/size etc... I've seen a few out there and most seem like they cost money and are hosted on their servers.

     

    Any suggestions?

     

    aside from using wordpress or similar, the two best are Disqus and js-kit echo.

  5. If you didn't want to go the cms route then you could piece it together. Say the first five thumbs are in a jquery tabs type setup. When you click on one of these thumbs it shows all the thumbs from this group. From there, you can either css it (large image shows on hover) or lightbox it (large image pops up in a overlay) and then they could click or scroll through all the images in that group. All the thumbs can be the same image as the large one. Just tell it to be smaller.

  6. Morning, looks good! On my iphone it automatically goes to the mobile version. Which is cool but has two problems. Either fix would be nice if you could do it. One, there is no "Active Posts" link anywhere. So I would have to go through each section to find any new thread. Or, two, when I click the link to turn it into the full non mobile version, it does not remember my preference so I have to do that each time I visit.

  7. I've looked into this a little bit. Aside from my link above, and another static HTML page, there are two other solid ways to do this. One, wih php. Google shows lots of results, they all seem to be doable but not simple - hard infact. Two, and probably the easiest and best of the bunch, "Google Translate". You simply add a small snippit of google supplied code to your site and it automatically translates it to any language. http://www.visibilityinherit.com/projects/multilingual-website-demo2.php
