Great presentation by Lea Verou about some things in CSS3 you may not have known about. You will learn something here guaranteed.
The HTML5 element is no more (along with the pubdate attribute) and has been replaced by . I don’t think there is anyone who thinks this is a good idea, especially as it has been out in the wild for a good while now. Gone is the ability for machine readable dates and times [...]
Very nice things you can do with CSS on images. The embossed styles are similar to how I created slick CSS3 buttons with box-shadow and rgba.
A very simple tip from TJ Taylor that I was completely unaware of until now even after all these years of using Photoshop. You know when you create a single line of text in Photoshop and you actually want to manipulate the height and width but you can’t? Well, right click the text with the [...]
I think it’s good to see Adobe thinking differently and trying new things despite the fact they’ve failed so miserably with Muse. Adobe’s cluelessness is a great opportunity for the little guys though. The independent app developers who do get it will thrive under the failing of a big company. I hope to see a [...]
It’s summer here in London which means I have less time to sit at a computer and write. Combine that with moving into a new place with my girlfriend, starting a new job and not having home broadband for two months thanks to the useless idiots at Virgin Media (with a dose of stupidity from O2 [...]
I’m not the biggest fan of Firefox. It’s clunky and slow and feeling a little old as a result but these proposed redesigns from the Firefox UX Team are really refreshing. Unfortunately I don’t have anymore information than what’s on the linked page but I really hope they push forward in this direction because it [...]

Please send me your favourite WordPress plugins to @tkenny on Twitter to test and potentially include on a future article here on Inspect Element.
Chosen is a javsacript plug-in that makes long, unwieldy select boxes much more user-friendly. It is currently available in both jQuery and Prototype flavors Very nice way to enhance the user experience of select boxes, especially the Google+ style multi select groups.
What can you do with only 1K of CSS? I would really love to have a go but unfortunately I just don’t have the time at the moment. The winners of JS1K are very impressive so it should be good to see what can be done with only CSS.
Adobe need to pay theTeam to bring this idea into Photoshop. They’ll probably just steal it but I would like for the original creators to get something out of it. In fact, Adobe are probably not currently savvy enough to see this is something that would make a fantastic addition to their software.
I’ve been using the alpha versions and it was great although clearly unfinished but the beta should be great. Let me know if you use it by sending me a message on Twitter @tkenny. Would be interesting to see it in action.
