I learnt a few things from this thread, as far as display: table-cell in css-tables is concerned. Beverleyh's info was highly useful. I experimented a little bit further with table-cells and put my findings in a small document made for personal use. Then I thought it might be useful to others too, so here it is.
There are many scripts that present a method for setting the iframe's height to match its contents. But I looked in vain for a script that integrates the iframe in a completely seamless way into the containing document. So I tried to write a script for emulating seamless iframes myself. My seamless iframes are competely indistinguishable from the surrounding text/content and inherit their css from the main document. All the code is put in the main document. No special code required in the ...
I knew that it is possible to programmatically force the browser to open a new window instead of a new tab, or the other way round. But I didn't know until now how to open a new tab together with text or code 'of my choice'. The text or code we may want to 'add' to a new tab must have the format of a string. The more complex the text or code we want to add, the bigger the danger of making mistakes in writing the string. So I decided to create a HTML-to-javascript-converter specially ...
I learned a few things after I posted this on my blog about putting a close button on top of centered fluid images. I used jquery and translate in CSS transforms there to do the job. But I found that it can also be done with the help of a combination of window.innerWidth/Height and element.clientWidth/Height. As window.innerWidth/Height and element.clientWidth/Height are also supported by older browser, a technique using these methods must be preferred. Demos and explanations here.

EDIT: see this for an alternative (better?) method.. CLICK HERE IF YOU WANT TO GO STRAIGHT AWAY TO THE DEMO PAGE. The translate() method used inside the HTML-code below moves both a (super) div-containing-a-close-buttom (id: 'the_div') and an image (id: 'the_img') to the center of the window. The jquery-onload in the image ensures that the width of the div equals the width of the image. This is a requirement if we want to get the button (in the div) at the right position in front of ...
