That Voodoo You Do - Positioning to the Bottom Right

Basically, you have to give the container position: absolute; but no positioning data. You then set the inner div to position: relative; add your bottom: 0px; right: 0px; and it comes together nicely. I could have googled and hit the top result, but noooo, I just had to spend 15 futile minutes...

One of the pearls of the K Desktop Environment is the Amarok audio player. It looks more similar to Itunes than Winamp, but without the tie-in to the Itunes Music Store and the fairly conservative functionality. It seems my quest for an allround music player has found a new winner!

After some half-serious tryouts of linux I finally decided to switch for good. Windows crapped out on me one time too many, and I'm not talking about some small program crash, but total annihilation. Anyways, i've always had some Linux CD's lying around the house for testing purposes, some experience too, but unfortunately those installations were always short-lived and unusable due to missing features (dual monitor support and sound being the usual suspects. Hello, my name is cjdmax and I'm a Linux convert.
This post has been subsequently updated with more news since the switch

Lightbox gone wild (by the folks at particletree) (based on lightbox is a piece of javascript that enables you to show modal content on top of your web page. Modal content is somewhat like a dialog box that you must interact with in order to proceed with whatever you were doing.

Most implementations of lightbox and lightbox gone wild use this functionality to pop-up images (removing the necessity for the user to open a new window/tab or use the back button after viewing the full-size image) or text (usually similar to operating system popups).

For some reason, I decided to use the code to "pop-up" content over a fireworks-generated site. I probably should have done something more elegant and less kludgy, but this works too. This approach did, however, pose some problems. Some functionality needed to be added to the basic lightbox gone wild code. However, lightbox gone wild is an extremely compact and complex piece of javascript, and it makes use of the prototype js lib. And there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth. Ultimately, after many a fruitless hacking session, google was king. I found these hacks on various websites.
