In an effort to make my previous (version 1) CSS-only Modal Gallery more user-friendly, I've now created a version that incorporates simple keyboard navigation from inside the modal overlay, using a small amount of JavaScript. Please see version 3 - the Responsive CSS3 Modal Gallery (+ additional JavaScript keyboard controls) This version of the gallery works a little more like how modern image galleries are expected to work (or rather, how users have learned to expect ...
I was emailed the other day by somebody asking if my earlier CSS-Only Multi-Level, Off-Canvass Mobile Menu could be visible on desktop too. At its most basic level, the following CSS inside of a desktop media query will do that; Code: #menu { left:0 } .container { padding-left:13.75em } Except this stumps IE8 and under because of no media query support and no checkbox hack support. So I set to work on creating a version that is visible (and works) on desktop and older browsers. ...

Today I revisit the Responsive CSS3 Any Content Slider, enhancing it with auto-play and start/stop controls (and later, a large touch-toggle with swish 'zoom' animation), thanks to a sprinkle of JavaScript. But first, a recap on the CSS-only version that was covered in an earlier blog post, mainly just as a reminder about usage of the checkbox hack to emulate click events via CSS - that's what gives it functionality without JavaScript, but, I was contacted and asked to make it play ...

Hidden side menus, like the ones used in Facebook and Youtube apps, are a space-saving alternative to traditionally visible desktop menus. This post introduces an upgrade to the earlier CSS-only off-canvass menu, that makes it possible for IE7/8 users to enjoy this menu too. All the features are the same as the CSS-only version - the difference here is that JavaScript makes it compatible with earlier versions of Internet Explorer (IE7/8). Demo - CSS3 Multi-Level, Off-Canvass ...

The common factor in all previous versions of the modal gallery is that alternative markup is offered for IE7/8 users to allow them to view image enlargements in a new browser window instead of the modal overlay. This is because those earlier versions of Internet Explorer do not support the CSS :target pseudo selector which triggers the modal overlay, but let's face it - having each image open in a new browser window doesn't do much for usability and it doesn't look very nice either. So, if you're ...
