Every browser has a defualt way of rendering HTML.
For example – if you were to create a new file and pop a little HTML in you would see it sets a unordered list with bullets, and indents it, that it also sets font size to header tags (h1-h6) it defines all the standard stuff. The browser gets all this from a built in standard run of the mill CSS file which it uses to render your code. (more…)

So I have been pretty quiet on Twitter recently, wanna know why? Wow you must be bored… hehe
I have been working with @divinefusion, turning her website designs into HTML/CSS here they are 
http://chhumanesociety.org/ – a rescue home for dogs and cats. I coded the site and the site attached for the upcoming event.
http://doortodoorcars.com/ – a car transportation company, taking your cars across the US.
And now I am currently working on a business directory for @divinefusion – she has me under the thumb… The directory will be my first full PHP project, so thats exciting!
I am also going to be working with a local company quite soon, developing their site.
Oh yes and trying to keep up the posting for Bitrebels.com
So all is well and good

If it is then I am the biggest looser of them all… there is nothing better than seeing that validated green. But more than that I HAVE to use a strict doctype, so even if a page will validate with Transitional I have to code it Strict XHTML, even if squishing the last errors isn’t 100% possible.
Is there something the matter with me? Probably, who knows?

So my good twitter friend @tomsturge had an idea that when people came onto his site from a certain place that they would get a small welcome message.
His idea was to have his link with a specific # at the end, in his case #twitter, that when people entered his site via that URL it would trigger a small welcome box.
He asked me for some help as of how to do this with jQuery, although I am by no means a jQuery master, after a bit of thought it all came together.
The tutorial probably wont be the best and most efficient way to create something, but I wanted to show you how easy jQuery can be to get into.
