Now you can with the new Q Card Case for the iPhone 5 by CM4. The Q Card Case is a 2-in-1 device that functions both as a protective casing for your iPhone5 as well as a wallet.

It even has a big cut out at the bottom of the case to allow for in-case charging as well as fully compatible with Apple's Lightning port to 30-pin port adapter.

Font sizing with rem - Snook.ca - 0 views

  • The problem with em-based font sizing is that the font size compounds. A list within a list isn't 14px, it's 20px. Go another level deeper and it's 27px!
  • The rem unit is relative to the root—or the html—element. That means that we can define a single font size on the html element and define all rem units to be a percentage of that. html { font-size: 62.5%; } body { font-size: 1.4rem; } /* =14px */ h1 { font-size: 2.4rem; } /* =24px */
  • We can specify the fall-back using px, if you don't mind users of older versions of Internet Explorer still being unable to resize the text (well, there's still page zoom in IE7 and IE8). To do so, we specify the font-size using px units first and then define it again using rem units. html { font-size: 62.5%; } body { font-size: 14px; font-size: 1.4rem; } /* =14px */ h1 { font-size: 24px; font-size: 2.4rem; } /* =24px */
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • I'm defining a base font-size of 62.5% to have the convenience of sizing rems in a way that is similar to using px.
  • consistent and predictable sizing in all browsers, and resizable text in the current versions of all major browsers
  • The compounding nature of em-based font-sizing can be frustrating so what else can we do?

Replacing the -9999px hack (new image replacement) - Jeffrey Zeldman Presents The Daily... - 0 views

  • My friend Scott Kellum, design director at Treesaver, has now sent me this refactored code for hiding text, which I hereby christen the Kellum Method: .hide-text { text-indent: 100%; white-space: nowrap; overflow: hidden; } Really long strings of text will never flow into the container because they always flow away from the container. Performance is dramatically improved because a 9999px box is not drawn. Noticeably so in animations on the iPad 1.
  • Scott Kellum said on 1 March 2012 at 3:41 pm: I went ahead and created a side by side site to test the performance: http://lab.pgdn.us/hidden-text-performance/ @Ethan, This is the best 43min I have ever spent learning about optimizing the performance of my CSS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuMWhto62Eo
  • Would be interesting to understand both the SEO and accessibility impacts of this approach.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Scott Kellum said on 2 March 2012 at 4:06 pm: After much deliberation over here: https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/issues/1005#issuecomment-4293007 Jonathan Neal suggested a method using font: 0/0 serif; and things seem to be settling on this — .ir { font: 0/0 serif; text-shadow: none; color: transparent; }
  • While I think this is certainly and interesting approach, I have some concerns with the accessibility. In some, if not all, cases when overflow: hidden; hides the content of the element this is applied to from screen readers. In most cases where I use image replacement, I still need the text to be accessible (e.g. call to action buttons set in Gotham). See Aaron Gustafson’s A List Apart article, http://www.alistapart.com/articles/now-you-see-me/. Has anyone tested this with a wide battery of screen readers or other accessibility devices?
  • Another note on accessibility: Besides the screen reader problems – people who don’t get images will not see the text too.
  • As a few people said already, this does not solve the accessibility problem that comes with text-indent. Worse, it may send the wrong message: “this is new and cool, use this from now!”. As a leader in the industry, I think you should warn people that even if this is “better” in term of performance, it is still a bad solution. Imo, Image Replacement techniques should be evaluated against the problems they solve/address. Fwiw, I wrote something about these challenges a few years back: http://tjkdesign.com/articles/tip.asp </shameless plug>

Getting Started with Firefox extension - Diigo help - 0 views

  •  Feature Highlight: Highlights Diigo saves the day with "highlights". Highlights let you select the important snippets on a page and store them in your library with the page's bookmark. Let's try it. Just open a page, maybe one of your old-school bookmarks or one of your new cat bookmarks, and find the information on that page you actually care about. Select that important text. Got it? Okay, now put your hemet on, 'cause this might blow your mind! Click the highlight icon on the Diigo toolbar. It's the one with the "T" on a page with a yellow highlighter. You will notice that the selected text gets a yellow background. This means that the text has been saved in your library, and as long as you have the Diigo add-on the text will be highlighted on the page! How's that for easy?   Now you've highlighted the text. It will appear in your library within the bookmark for the page it is on. Go to your library and you can see how it works. If you're not sure how to get to your library, just click the second icon on the toolbar (Diigo icon to the left of the search bar) and then select "My Library »".
  • Sticky Notes on the Web What? I can put a sticky note on a web page? How? Oh, that's right! Diigo. Just right-click anywhere on the page and choose to "add a floating sticky note". Type up your note and choose "Post", then move the note anywhere on the page. You have to type a note first, before you move it where you want, otherwise there's nothing to move!

Everything You Know About CSS Is Wrong | Digital Web Magazine: Rachel Andrew - 0 views

  •  
    The easy way to use CSS2.1 to solve difficult cross-browser layout issues: CSS tables solve all the problems encountered when using absolute positioning or floats to create multi-column layouts in modern browsers. Specifying the value table for the display property of an element allows you to display the element and its descendants as though they're table elements. The main benefit of CSS table-based layouts is the ability to easily define the boundaries of a cell so that we can add backgrounds and so on to it-without the semantic problems of marking up non-tabular content as a HTML table in the document.
