Comment on Non-Obvious CSS: Full-Screen Gradients by Lord Gothchild

I found that IE did not fill the background when styling the body element but it did when styling the HTML element, so far I have found only one problem with IE anf gradients and that is if I round the corners of any other element then IE does not render the fillet transparent, instead the element shows a background coloured fillet

Works fine with Safari and Firefox though…

html {
min-height: 100%;
background:black;
background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #595964, #282828);
background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#595964), to(#282828));
background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #595964, #282828);
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient(
gradientType=0,startColorStr=#595964,
endColorStr=#282828);
}

It’s sad to know trolls can’t write proper English.

Comment on Simple HTML Slides – Not Ready for Prime Time? by samar

Just wanted to say that Simple HTML Slides is a wonderful resource. Many thanks. Its very simple to understand and easy to use.

I wonder if you could give some pointers on how to integrate events to sync with a video or audio file. If so would it be possible to include another slide template in Simple HTML Slides, where that could be done.

In any event, this is great work.

Forget about min-height, just add ‘background-attachment: fixed’. Simple!

Comment on The Future of Mobile Devices in Education by RLW

RLW — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 15:59:34 +0000

I am all for working with mobile technology in education but in specific ways. One post mentioned an issue with mobile technology use – assessment. For this and other reasons I would limit its use to activities in a course but not for the course itself. Examples like collaborating, researching, responding within a course as a part of many tools that are used.
