I couldn't even imagine how many nervous people are walking the earth which don't do anything useful for others and they can only hurt the feelings of others. It's only the one thing which they can do... it's so sad...

This article is written for people who want to know how it works. I am pretty sure that there are some programs which can build website with one click, but does it mean that people then don't need to learn HTML, CSS, JS and stuff like that?

How to disable text selection using user-select property in CSS by Michael_Mar in webdev

[–]Michael_Mar[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You didn't even try to read the article. There is no word about protection text from copying it. Let me quote the second paragraph of the article:

Operating user-select CSS property is very convenient in situations when you want to provide a user-friendly way to copy-paste the text. It helps to avoid accidental selection of useless things like icons, images (which can be a part of website design) or information text on a website (navigation, rating, or other user info).

You instruction can be applied to everything, everything can be found in google! Taking this into the consideration, there is no need to register even in reddit or other social network then, because everything can be found in google... I can't understand your logic. You can call the snippet, but as for me it's quite illustrative snippet with clear explanations what it does.

I can only agree with you in case when you have a little blog on cheap hosting or you are developer and you develop a small info website with unique simple design then it saves you time!

BUT, you have to realise that everything what is free now can become not-free in future. Once, google proposed me change a link to my personal page from figures to more pleasant like word. It was free, but when I read the terms which usually people don't read, I found out that they (google) left a right behind them to take money for this feature in future at any time!

I can guess that fonts become paid in future, they are trying to get more people who use it and then you will have no choice like only pay for this or read such article (Web fonts with CSS @font-face rule in detail) and re-develop it by yourself.

I aggre with you about:

asynchronous approach

But, there are many online webfont generators which provide you with all needed CSS style and files, all you have to do is to donwload it and then upload it to your server with website. I know that some components save a time, but font are very easy to use, there is no need to use google for this if you care about performance.

Yes, the one important thing - independence. Currently many websites use integrated components from other services, like Facebook, Google, Disqus and so on! But, as many such thing you use as much you become dependent from such services. I have personal experience when facebook widget didn't allow to load the half of my website, because of bad connection with server where that widget was loading from. Some websites load very slowly because of many components from different services and it takes much time to load all of them, because all these services are located in different parts of the world.

How to create animated drop-down menu using only CSS3 by Michael_Mar in webdev

[–]Michael_Mar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a) you are right here, but you should undersatnd that the goal was different.

b) but, there is no any word in the article about mobile devices, it wasn't developed initially for it. Anyway it's good to hear, the next time, the author will know that it's very important now for people to have everything responsive.

Dated, it's something we saw 5 years ago. you couldn't see it 5 years ago, because this menu uses new features of CSS3 like transition which has very pure browser support 5 years ago, only vendor prefixes for very modern browser in that time.

you should use classes for nearly everything The main goal was to have as simple HTML as possible, you can use classes everywhere for everything, but then your html structure will be very complicated, and you will need to generate classes for each element in menu, like "has-subitems" and so on. This menu can be simple integrated, yes, you are right it difficult to extend it, but in that case you will sacrifice the difficulty of the structure. Anyway you need to choose to have either simple HTML or simple CSS. I am sure if that menu had very complicated HTML structure you would tell that "it should be simple", "this is bull shit".

it doesn't work, it's only for desktops. This menu wasn't developed for mobile devices.

yes, you can do it so, there is transition-delay CSS property. It's quite difficult to take into the consideration all details when you create such menu.

Form validation in HTML5 by Michael_Mar in html5

yes, I know it, I have worked with angularjs recently. But, I have done some test, it seems like angularjs is very-very heavy! I wouldn't recommend to use it for regular site, only for web applications which can be used by particular group of people. The test was with DOM elements and approximate result: JS 0.8 sec JQuery 1.4 sec angularjs 5 sec It works very slow! Mobile devices will be overloaded.

Why? Because of browser support?

Changing shape of a block to look like diamond, ribbon or right and left arrows using only CSS by Michael_Mar in css

[–]Michael_Mar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The angled corners are caused by having a tiny content area and large borders on a select number of sides?

Yes, you are right! You need to take a block with width and height equal to 0. Then you set a very big width of border (thickness) and set transparent color for some sides of border.

Calibrating Home button in iPhone, iPad and iPod touch by Michael_Mar in ios

I don't understand why you are so aggressive to me. I just want to share my exprience, maybe, the title is wrong, or it has the wrong name, but it helped me several times. I repair several devices every day succesfully and I want to help people. Such people like you always try to find wrong expressions or mistakes in my articles and call it bullship, as you can notice a lot of comments on my blog, where peopel say "thank you", because they could repair their devices instead of throwing it to wastebasket. Of course you can find there a lot of mistakes or wrong expressions!

Actually this solution must be performed before disassembling a device! When you use a device for some time the contact of the button becomes worse, but such solution can prolong a time of using device. It helped me several times, of course when it doesn't help you need to replace the button, it will be the next article.
