I have to add a biger "i like" button to my webpage due to design requirements and i'm turning nuts, i tried this method: http://www.esrun.co.uk/blog/disguising-a-facebook-like-link/ but it works as long as you are doing a equal size button (or i'm doing something wrong, wich is quite posible :P), otherways is just clickable the area were the original facebook button is.
So is it posible to change the size? i understand that facebook allows you (acording to their policy) change the size, but not the look of it, but i don't see any way to do it.

I have a problem that seems pretty simple to me, but so far it was impossible to find a simple solution: On my website, whenever the Android soft keyboard pops up, it resizes the window and shrinks the content, instead of just overlaying the page.
See these pictures for reference:
The first two are the current situation, the third is what I want. It works like this on iOS. What can I do to make it work that way?
The screenshots were taken in Firefox - this is a website based on HTML, not a native app.
I tried setting body size and position, but so far, no luck. I've seen some very complicated JS code snippets for similar problems, but I didn't get any of them to work the way I want, and it also seems like there should be an easier way around it. The sizes of all the elements are determined with vh and wv. Setting fixed pixel values seems like it would kill the responsiveness of the design, no?
I'm not a very experienced developer, my page is just very basic HTML and CSS. Is there a way to achieve what I want with only that?
On your manifest.xml you can set android:windowSoftInputMode to adjustPan.
<activity
android:name=".WebActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" />
From Android documentation:
Don't resize the window to make room for the soft input area; instead
pan the contents of the window as focus moves inside of it so that the
user can see what they are typing. This is generally less desireable
than panning because the user may need to close the input area to get
at and interact with parts of the window
I am really new to HTML and CSS but have created a prototype page to get a reasonable size, look, and feel to fit on a 768x1024 or larger display. I revised it to be used in landscape mode but it's apparent it won't fit in a typical browser window even at full screen with my minimum height and width criteria. The page doesn't contain text; just buttons, check boxes, text, and textarea "widgets". I think that I can fiddle with sizing and make it fit into a window if there is only a top "title" bar with the minimize and close buttons but absent all the other "stuff" such as the navigation bar, tool bar, etc. found in a typical browser.
I do use a couple of web apps that are like this so I know that it is possible. I've searched Google for examples and found popups but none are like this.
My question is: how do I do this, preferably without javascript, and what is this type of window called?
This should help with the minimizing: Is there a good jQuery plugin for a hide effect that looks like minimizing windows in Windows
You're going to have to include jQuery from http://www.jquery.com and call this animate script when the window you want to minimize is clicked.
This will help you with the 'closing'.
https://api.jquery.com/hide/
When you click on an element you can call .hide() on it, effectively closing it from the user's perspective.
This works fine on my computer but im wondering if its a good idea in terms of accessibility, etc.
I have a page of product listings, and I want each listing to link to a product page. The listing is made up of an image and a few photographs of text.
I want the entire listing area to be a link, including white space. So rather than make the images and text links individually, ive put the entire div in a link.
As I said, this is working fine on my computer, but is a good idea for a production site?
Thanks
If it's like a grid or something, and you give a visual cue when the user moves the mouse over the row (background color changing etc) along with the cursor becoming a hand, it should be fine if you use the whitespace as part of your link.
If you want me in your website's audience, I would prefer if you wouldn't. When switching between windows, clicking in the window area is the quickest way to switch focus between windows. If like 80% of your window is really a link, I would find that annoying. I think I am not the only one.
The way it sounds there is also plenty of area which you can make behave like a link, such as the image, and the text in the grid. If that would be clickable, that would be big enough a target to hit.
Also imagine your app being used on a touch screen. These sometimes imsinterpret drag (scroll/zoom) and tick gestures. Which is annoying if everything responds to clicks.
Look at the right-side video links on YouTube. These are block-layout spans wrapped in a tags. (Not that just because Google does it means it's a good idea, but...)
If the area has a :hover color (as these do), then it should be clear enough to the user that this is an action item.
Syntactically it's invalid, you cannot put block elements (div, p, table) inside of inline elements (span, a, strong, em).
i have a image that i don't want it drag-able or selectable so that no drag to other places on the page. how is that done?
If you want your visitors/users to see the resource on your page there is no way to stop them downloading it or saving it.
Possible options:
You can use JavaScript to prevent the context-menu popping up on right-click (related article: http://javascript.about.com/library/blnoright.htm).
You can cover the image with a transparent .png or .gif so that clicking on the image simple returns the transparent image.
But if the user can see the image on the webpage then it's already on their computer.
In reality this is far harder than you may think it will be, I assume you don't want people stealing your images which is a fair enough thing but just remember all the different ways in which someone can get an image from a web site. Your can catch the right click event and stop them at least doing that, but they can always just take a screenshot and save that instead. This is a slippery slope and it always ends the same way, if they really want to steal it, they're going to.
Since the image is just a binary data, and all the data is written on client PC's, for displaying reason it's up to th euser what they'll do with the data. There's no way you can prevent them from saving the picture displayed on a website.
All you might do is make it a little bit harder, by blocking right clicking on image, (displaying alert on right click, or something like this). But if the user really wants to save the picture they will do this anyway.
Why should you do it?
I can suggest a javascript that will able it: http://www.brownielocks.com/stopcopying.html
But every one, even with little experience can view the source and copy it. and even if you block them from viewing the source, they can use wireshark and get the picture directly. Even if you use flash to show the picture one can screen-capture the screen and retrieve the picture.
Put a watermark on the picture and use http://www.tineye.com/ from time to time and search for your picture. If you find others that use your picture - sue them. It is the most effective way.
It is impossible to prevent someone to store an image (or other resources) on their computer as others already have mentioned.
But another trick to make it harder (impossible for inexperienced people I guess) is to use CSS and background images:
<div style='background: url("myimage.gif");'></div>
The image is now on the background of the <div> block and cannot be dragged or right clicked in order to save it.
Using some coding knowledge it is possible to ind out the myimage.gif part, which can be added after the base URL in order download the image and save it. For example if the HTML page is at http://www.example.com/mypage.html the image could be found at http://www.example.com/myimage.gif
As I mentioned it is still possible to save the image, but for inexperienced people it is a lot harder.
Note: In this example the image is just put in the HTML tag, but with proper use of a CSS file, it is even harder to find for inexperienced people.
You cannot prevent a user from saving something from the web to his PC. The nearest thing that comes to my mind is the -moz-user-select CSS property... https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/-moz-user-select
This javascript snippet does exactly what OP asks:
document.addEventListener("dragstart", preventDrag);
function preventDrag(event) {
event.preventDefault();
}
I'm using the LinkedIn Profile widget on my site and am using the popup version. Although it's functional, I don't like the little LinkedIn icon that's placed as I'm already using a larger LinkedIn icon. Is it possible to hide the smaller one? (I assume it's built into the class, but there may be an option somewhere?) If not, is it possible to overlap a hyperlink so that I can essentially hide the smaller icon behind the larger icon, but ensure the smaller one gets clicked if the large one is clicked on? (Hope that make sense :) )
try adding a style="background-image:none;" to your link.
