Glossy.js

Filed under Design, Markup on July 4th, 2007 | Comments Off

Glossy.js 1.21 allows you to add corners and shading and shadow to images on your webpages. It uses unobtrusive javascript to keep your code clean.

It works in all the major browsers - Mozilla Firefox 1.5+, Opera 9+, IE6+ and Safari. On older browsers, it’ll degrade and your visitors won’t notice a thing. Looks lovely.

456 - Bulletproof shrinkwrapping buttons

Filed under CSS, Design, Markup on May 23rd, 2007 | Comments Off

This is a demo document for the technique described in the article Creating bulletproof graphic link buttons with CSS.

A successfull bulletproof image-based button should:

  • Automatically grow horizontally to fit any amount of text
  • Grow horizontally and vertically if text size is increased or if the text wraps to multiple lines
  • Retain its appearance within reasonable limits
  • Be able to have rounded (or other non-square) corners
  • Have no unclickable areas
  • Be readable when images are disabled

A bag-full of mark-up required but pretty neat.
