Re: Maintainable CSS Reply #1 – May 13, 2016, 02:20:30 am Hmm. The CSS on their site is badly written. They should take some lessons on the basics. If they can't even be bothered to add a simple declaration to make their pages legible to anyone, they know SFA.

Re: Maintainable CSS Reply #3 – May 13, 2016, 05:58:53 pm TBH I didn't bother even reading their site once I saw it was unreadable. It's possible that there are some good ideas in there, but last night I CBF'd adding yet another declaration to userContent.css and restarting my browser. If they want people to read their site, they should bloody well make it readable. If anyone hasn't figured it out yet, they have omitted a background declaration for several elements. This is fine for average mugs who don't tweak their browsers, because the browser automatically puts a white background on the window.If someone, like me fer instance, customises their browser settings so that windows have a dark grey background by default, so new ones don't burn my eyeballs out with a nasty white flash, then any normal (dark grey or black) text in elements without a background declared becomes impossible to read.This is stupid, and unnecessary. It's beginner level stuff. Get it right, ya wankers.
Re: Maintainable CSS Reply #4 – May 13, 2016, 07:47:42 pm LOL, personally I was referring to the fact that they are also using padding-top, padding-left, padding-right, padding-bottom all separate instead of grouping them up into a single one. Stuff like that.
