I wrote a simple help bubble script for input elements. This how it looks. How to do the same in your product. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fist add this two css classes to your css file. .speech-bubble{     width: 780px;     background: #eff1f1;     border:solid 1px #dadada;     padding: 10px;     color:#686868;     position: absolute; } .speech-pointer {     content: '';     position: absolute;     border-style: solid;     border-width: 15px 15px 15px 0;     border-color: transparent #eff1f1;     display: block;     width: 0;     z-index: 1;     left: -15px;     top: 25px; } -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Secondl...

I recently wrote a script to display product life cycle states in a chart. This chart has to be dynamic. The life-cycle state definition is dynamic and can be different from case to case. So the states and there relationship with each other is represented using a JSON file. Following is a part of what I have used with my script. ( The complete JSON is included with the sample given at the end of this post ).  {     "state": [         {             "id":"Development",             "type":"initial" ,             "transition": [                 {                     "target":"Deprecated",   ...

My Fist Game !!! Finally I was able to finish it. It's been two and half years since I start investing my extra time on this. It all started with a joke. My current working place is a real fun place to work. We usually hangout on teatime and through out any thing we got on each other. We use to sit on a circle and pick a subject and laugh the guts out. Ones we were talking about a particular slow server, we thought about letting the users play a game while it loads. Game like Angry Birds. Then an idea came to modify the Angry Birds game to something like Angry Babes. So instead of this birds there are hot hot girls flying and killing dudes inside building blocks. Then I started wondering, " What if this can be done for real? " "How practical is this?" "Can a single person do this?" I think I have done a research on mobile game purchase statistics, it turns out to be IOS users have more trend over buying stuff than Android users. So IOS wa...

I just had a thought about humans and this whole wold. The technology is growing so fast. During the last century most of the advanced technologies came in to existence. Now I can simply video chat with my friend in USA, send him photos, sync with him and work on same task., and do so many things with the current technologies. Within another century we might be able to contact other lifeforms in the universe if we were able to develop our technologies like this. Shouldn't we be happy about that and be energetic. I don't think so.. Y? There are 100 to 200 billion galaxies in the Universe, each of which has hundreds of billions of stars. There has to be billions of civilizations out there. If the technology can be sustainably develop in to such a state that we are able to travel through Universe and contact other life forms, there has to be some one trying to contact us right now. But there aren't any.. So what does that tells us? It simply says we can't ...

CSS3 is cool. It's animation and 3D stuff are amazing. But things like rounded corner and gradients are the most useful. I am listing down few tricks that I use often for my own quick reference. Gradient No more slicing.. and repeating images to make shaded backgrounds. background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#6f6f6f), to(#000000)); /* mozilla - FF3.6+ */ background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #6f6f6f 0%, #000000 100%); /* IE 5.5 - 7 */ filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient(GradientType=0,StartColorStr='#6f6f6f',EndColorStr='#000000'); /* IE8 */ -ms-filter: progid: DXImageTransform . Microsoft . gradient(gradientType = 0, startColor = '#CCCCCC', endColoStr = '#000000'); /*Transparent back */ Shadows. Rounded Corner, and Transparent Layers. I like to give a div a transparent background and put some kind of a background image under it. Drop the shadow from that box make it look much nice.. ...
