  • Alternatives to Skrollr (or your trusted library for parallax scrolling thats open source)

    Hi everyone.

    So I recently discovered skrollr: https://prinzhorn.githu b.io/skrollr/

    It works quite well (the ability to define your own properties to animate, setting a start and end value for the animation as well as determining when the animation should begin based on where the animated is in the viewport) but it doesn't work too well on mobile and tablets.

    Can anyone recommend some libraries I could...

  • Keeping up to date with the latest trends . . .

    Hi all.

    I am eager to learn more about new technologies and frameworks out there for front end web development. I was told that a blog would be my best bet but I honestly don't know where to begin.

    Can anyone make some recommendations for decent blogs? I know this is an odd request but I feel that since there are a lot of senior developers out here, I would like to follow who they follow to grow myself and learn more....

    CSS Text Positioning . . .

    Hi all. I have a quick question regarding text positioning. If you look at the image below:



    How can I achieve this positioning and ensure that the position is constant? (for responsiveness) . I was told that using padding will not work especially when the font might increase or decrease in size when viewing a website on a mobile device (why is this so?).

    Would setting the "top" property be a...

  • Thank you for your response. I have done some digging and found that child themes are not safe because an update to the parent theme can break your child themes functionality, or a theme can no longer be supported making your child theme obsolete.

    With that taken into consideration, what would you recommend then apart from finding a theme similar to a design? building a theme from scratch?

  • Breakdown of the design process for a wordpress site please.

    If I am not mistaken, the typical process of developing a website in a corporate environment is to receive a PSD with the basic look and feel of the site (approved by the client) and to develop a website using that design.

    My question is, if I (as a Wordpress developer) receive this PSD and use a basic theme to customize, how would I go about doing this?

    Would I make a child theme and alter the theme based on the design?...

    Optimizing a video for a Landing Page. . .

    Hi all. I trust you all are well.

    So I just edited a video with free stock footage from Pexels and was wondering if some could give me some advice on how to optimize it for speed.

    It is currently 20MB big and is 30 seconds long.

    I know that I need to make it a lot smaller but what else can I do?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Controlling the height of Materialize's slider with media queries . . .

    Hi guys I am trying to make Materialize's slider more responsive. I have removed the default height from the materialize.min .js file (as per attachment), but my media queries have no affect on the height. Can any one point out what I am doing wrong?

    Code:
    @media only screen and (min-width : 320px) {
        .slider{height: 150px !important;}

  • How to make a static Wordpress site dynamic with PHP?

    Hi everyone, so I have received a project to make a static Wordpress website for marketing purposes.

    How ever, I am curious about how to make a word press site dynamic. In other words, accepting user input and outputting the results of a calculation or pulling data from a database with user input.

    Can someone suggest articles or videos to reference or learn from?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Thanks Frinny , that works well.

    My original solution to the problem was a bit cheap but it works aswell

    Code:
    Year_Selector_Cus.Value = Year_Selector_Cus.Value + 1;
    Year_Selector_Cus.Value = Year_Selector_Cus.Value - 1;
    I basically incremented the value then decremented it. And the value was displayed again.

  • Thank you for your solution frinny. Lol how ever, now that I check for the type of control, only a few textboxes are cleared. Interesting

    is my code incorrect?

    Code:
    foreach (Control ctrl in c)
    {
        TextBox tb = ctrl as TextBox;
           if (tb != null)
             {
               if (tb is TextBox)
                  {
                     tb.Text = "";

  • Hi Frinny, no its a simple windows form application.

    I found the source of the problem, the following code :

    Code:

            {
                foreach (Control ctrl in c)
                {
                    TextBox tb = ctrl as TextBox;
                    if (tb != null)
                        tb.Text = "";

  • NumericUpDown Hides its value from the user . . .

    Hi everyone

    I have a button which selects a particular tab and tab page on a form. This tab page has an embedded tab control with several more pages.

    When I click on this button, the desired tab page is selected, but the NumericUpDown value (which is on the tab page) is not visible. The value is the current year.

    Any idea what could possibly be the issue? I would post code but its a hell of a lot to post....

  • True clint, but I did some digging on the web, when two copies of your db exist in your application, visual studio will in some cases decide to overwrite the db that has been updated with the copy that hasn't and as a result, negates all CRUD process.

    Played around with it for a bit and managed to stop the duplication process and now the app functions normally. How ever i want to see what happens when i make more crystal reports and...
