Well, actually I caught the offending editor here: http://stackoverflow.com/review/suggested-edits/4432819#./4432819?&_suid=1395863‌875031037342822176947515

hichris123

Ah, that.

@Undo Come hither!

Annonomus Person

9:24 PM

How come is it turning on my webcam in the middle?

hichris123

@AnnonomusPerson I didn't hack you... :P

Annonomus Person

On the google thing

hichris123

That's what that icon is!

Annonomus Person

Yeah.

hichris123

I... dunno why it needs the webcam.

Undo

9:25 PM

I am back

Annonomus Person

And there's a mic for recoding.

@Undo Awwwh.

hichris123

Makes Undo answer a question of mine

11 hours ago, by hichris123

@Undo I have a UI question: you know how I have that landing page for Instagram? Should I have another page to redirect the user to, change the content when the button is pressed, or simply have the login username and password boxes on the first screen?

Undo

hmmm

reads question

IMO put the login fields on the main screen if login is required for the use of the thing.

hichris123

k.

Undo

9:28 PM

ooooooh a flag

Annonomus Person

@Undo What's a flag? I never get them :P

Undo

@AnnonomusPerson They're neat little things that mere mortals use to irritate us.

hichris123

Or I could do something like this:

Annonomus Person

@Undo Ahh. Do you use flags @hichris?

hichris123

Or something like that.

Undo

9:29 PM

meh, you could

hichris123

@AnnonomusPerson Nope. Not at all. :P

Annonomus Person

@hichris123 Well you are a mere mortal :P

Undo

Free flag

hichris123

@Undo Bad option, then?

@hichris123 I dunno

Annonomus Person

9:30 PM

@Undo Nah. Too lazy to sign up for a SRecs account

Undo

;(

well it's gone now :P

hichris123

@Undo Oh, did I tell you InstaGlass posts a picture (kinda sorta, via a web URL and only one picture/photo)?

@Undo Flagged it! :D

Undo

I saw that in the transcript, yeah

@hichris123 uhm... how?

hichris123

@Undo Before you deleted it.

Annonomus Person

@Undo You have more rep on Windows Phone than on Arduino.

Undo

9:31 PM

looks at timeline

@AnnonomusPerson wait what?

I have a WP account? :O

Annonomus Person

@Undo Yep

Undo

You flagged one second before I nuked it, @hichris123 :D

hichris123

rofl, really?

Undo

yeah

or so says the timeline

hichris123

That was a quick turnaround. :P

Undo

9:33 PM

Should do something good to our flag handling time >:D

Annonomus Person

@Undo rotfl

@Undo So will @HiChris get a helpful flag because you acted on it without reviewing the flag directly?

hichris123

@AnnonomusPerson Yeah

Nuking a post marks all non Other flags as helpful.

Undo

yup

Annonomus Person

yup

Undo

Just touched some code that bids in online auctions automatically - one of the most dangerous things I've ever done :P

Annonomus Person

9:41 PM

@Undo Have you ever messed with a mod before being a mod?

Now that is dangerous.

Undo

true

Annonomus Person

:P

Waves hammer in air.

Undo

Let's see... I angered all the SF mods, at least.

well maybe 90% of them

Undo

@hichris123 no, several of them.

Annonomus Person

yeah

Annonomus Person

Listens closely for story

Believe it or not, I have things to do that don't involve Server Fault. Just flag the comments and someone will get to them as soon as it's practical.

Annonomus Person

Comes back after deciding not to have a snack

Undo

@hichris123 oh, this was almost a year ago.

Pre-charcoal

Annonomus Person

9:52 PM

So why are they mad at you @Undo

Undo

meh, no reason to beat a dead horse.

I think they forgot, anyway, so I don't want to remind them.

Annonomus Person

I would say "let's go into TL" but that'd defeat the purpose! :P They're mods, too.

Blaze is eating up all of my flags. Is that a good or a bad thing?

Undo

good

Annonomus Person

9:55 PM

Why is there no space between them?

Undo

@AnnonomusPerson because it looks better than way?

Annonomus Person

@Undo I mean how.

Undo

oh

dunno

Looking at the code... noting special.

FLAG!

9:57 PM

@Undo Gosh they were jerks.

Undo

eh?

hichris123

SF

Undo

what, did you find it?

hichris123

Yeah.

Undo

Go back a year in Comms room chat transcripts? I feel sorry for you :P

hichris123

9:58 PM

@Undo Nah, search. :D

Undo

oh

:P

Annonomus Person

@Undo technically you could link it and then purge it :P

Curious

Undo

nah

don't wanna dig it up

hichris123

I'm even wondering what it was @Undo. The message was deleted.

Annonomus Person

@hichris123 History on it?

Undo

10:01 PM

sigh

Annonomus Person

Found out how to do it!

-1 margins on facing sides and destroy the border radius with CSS

hichris123

@Undo So... easiest way to use a form input in PHP is to POST the response to another file, and do stuff with it there?

Undo

I think so, yeah

Annonomus Person

@hichris123 Yeah you might want to do some AJAX so it doesn't refresh...

letme dig up a link

9lessons.info/2009/04/submit-form-jquery-and-ajax.html

There we go!

hichris123

@AnnonomusPerson Hmm... it needs to redirect after the successful login. Still use AJAX?

Annonomus Person

10:04 PM

@hichris123 That's easy with PHP.

Wait... hmm javascript might work to do that. Let me look it up.

The only benefit is for wrong passwords.

Q: PHP redirect AFTER sending headers?

I have a function which needs to redirect the page if a variable is set etc... The problem is, this function is at the bottom of the php page. This means, I have outputted alot of information, so I get a headers warning. "Warning - Headers already sent by ..." Is there any way to redirect aft...

That might help you :)

IDK if you should put it in your main file @HiChris or form submit one...

hichris123

k, give me a minute or two.

Annonomus Person

Tick, tock :D

Undo

makes $25 looking over someone's code

Annonomus Person

@Undo Lucky

How much code?

Undo

meh, a few hundred lines

Annonomus Person

10:15 PM

So like 10 minutes?

Undo

half an hour, more like

complicated code :P

Annonomus Person

Still, that's $50 an hour. McDonalds pays like $4

(Well more like $8 I'd imagine)

HamZa

@Undo regularly or occasionally ?

Hello btw

Undo

@HamZa regularly-ish.

and hi ;)

HamZa

Great job, especially for your age.
I'm working parttime at a DIY shop and I get only ~7,5euro per hour

Annonomus Person

10:20 PM

(~$10 USD)

Undo

money doesn't really matter to me :P

The guy gives me awesome stuff to work on, and he refuses to not pay me.

Annonomus Person

Oh it's one person? That makes more sense.

Undo

yeah

HamZa

hehehe nice

Annonomus Person

Hmm... and Charcoal isn't interesting? :P

Undo

10:22 PM

Well charcoal is kinda dead right now :P

Annonomus Person

Kinda.... but there are related projects.

We should rename it to RIP Charcoal... (Previous HQ)

Undo

I split time pretty evenly

hichris123

hichris.erwaysoftware.com/instaglass/oauthlanding.php

^ Halp! I need a line break there!

HamZa

The good things about my job is:
- I learned a lot about fixing/building stuff in the house (think about painting, using certain machines etc...)
- I can stay away from my computer once in a while: I'm the whole day using my computer, so working the night or the weekend is a good oppurtinity to stay away from it

Seth

@hichris123 just put one in :-P

Annonomus Person

10:25 PM

@HamZa You want to stay away from the computer? Gasp :P

HamZa

@AnnonomusPerson it's unhealthy ... I use the computer at school, when I get home and the night

Annonomus Person

@Undo Yeah. Totally.

chartgo.com/…

@HamZa IK :P

hichris123

@Seth Doesn't work... :(

Annonomus Person

@hichris123 Two line breaks?

Seth

Code?

Two is sometimes necessary.

hichris123

10:27 PM

Annonomus Person

@Seth If you're using PHP, it kinda depends on the kind of day it is for your server :)

hichris123

^^ What it looks like with one <br>

  <form action="instagramlogin.php" method="post">
    <p class="input-group">
      <span class="input-group-addon">@</span>
      <input type="text" name="username" class="form-control input-lg"/>
      <span class="input-group-addon">@</span>
      <input type="text" name="password" class="form-control input-lg"/>
      <p><a class="btn btn-success btn-lg" role="button" type="submit">Let's get started!</a></p>
    </p>
  </form>

Annonomus Person

Do two different input-groups

hichris123

^ Code

@AnnonomusPerson Duh. :P

Annonomus Person

@hichris123 :P

hichris123

10:28 PM

And... yeah, that works.

Annonomus Person

The sweet taste of... success?

HamZa

@hichris123 why are you using p instead of div ?

Seth

/me stuck on a tablet

Annonomus Person

@HamZa IDK bootstrap does some things weird.

Ahh typo sorry.

Seth

Also, <br /> ahem

HamZa

10:29 PM

Annonomus Person

hehe haha

hichris123

@Seth What's the difference?

Annonomus Person

@hichris123 Self closing tag.

I think it's for browsers that aren't that powerful and freak out w/ out a closing tag.

Seth

The second is better :-P

Annonomus Person

10:31 PM

blog.teamtreehouse.com/to-close-or-not-to-close-tags-in-html5

TimWolla

<br /> may be valid XML, while <br> may not.

XHTML is preferable because you can push it thru an XML parser in case you need it.

Seth

XHTML is old. Although I still always close my break tags.

/me is going to try to switch to a real computer.

hichris123

rofl @Undo fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icon/stack-exchange

TimWolla

@Seth With XHTML I mean HTML 5 written in XML style.

HamZa

TimWolla

10:34 PM

@HamZa But I want that little tickmark! :(

Annonomus Person

How me design look?

(Besides the poor cropping issues of the screenshot)

HamZa

@TimWolla Yeah but judging from the question and it's quality, you can sense if the OP has a minimal understanding. Otherwise, you will need to prepare your facepalms

Annonomus Person

(And the missing login button :D)

TimWolla

@AnnonomusPerson Remove the break between the checkbox and the label

@HamZa Always prepared, I am browsing [tag:php]

HamZa

mwahahaha
Seriously, I gave up on tag:php. Whenever I browse it, I tend to ragequit

Seth

10:37 PM

@AnnonomusPerson Looks good, but what is that checkmark? It looks kinda weird.

TimWolla

@HamZa Unfortunatly PHP is the language I know best. I tend to prefer JavaScript the last time, but the questions there are as bad as in PHP.

Seth

^^

TimWolla

Or they are JavaScript+AJAX+PHP

HamZa

/Same here, I know php the best although I also rock in regex :)

unfortunately most regex questions are of the type "gime ze codez"

TimWolla

I am good in many things.

Greatest exception probably is .NET

I have not a single idea how .NET works.

Seth

10:39 PM

I am bad at everything coding related :(

HamZa

@Seth people like you tend to be better than they claim :P

TimWolla

checking your profile

I am using Ubuntu longer than you! :-P

Seth

I answered one of your questions :P

What version did you start at btw?

TimWolla

@Seth I know ;)

HamZa

Oh I hate ubuntu since they introduced that side-bar, unity was it ?

TimWolla

10:43 PM

If I remember correctly I started with Jaunty.

Seth

Yep. I like Unity.

But you don't have to use it.

TimWolla

I use Unity as well.

Seth

There's Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME, and a bunch of other DEs that you can install.

HamZa

Basically I dropped ubuntu and went to lubuntu. Still searching for a better OS.

Oh and now using windows because everything at school is meant for windows

Seth

Lubuntu == Ubuntu with a different DE.

HamZa

10:45 PM

I know

Seth

oh, ok

TimWolla

I wonder how 14.04 will become.

Probably bad again, the april releases are always bad :(

Seth

become? 12.04 wasn't bad iirc.

HamZa

@TimWolla Let's just hope it doesn't have a win8 interface :)

TimWolla

become = be like

Seth

10:46 PM

no real "big" changes coming in 14.04 that I can recall.

Undo

Will my 32-bit machine be able to run 14.04 server, @Seth?

TimWolla

They tend to break everything in the April releases.

@Undo I'm pretty sure you have a 64-bit CPU

@HamZa Oh, I do like the interface.

Undo

@TimWolla not on my closet-server

TimWolla

I am using Windows 8 for Steam.

HamZa

I'm using win7 with the theme service disabled. Everyone looking at my screen thinks I'm using win98 hehehe

TimWolla

10:49 PM

Definitly not Windows 98.

The task bar is way to large

Also: Opera. Probably the worst browser from a web designer's perspective.

HamZa

oh it became worse. I'm just stuck to it since I can't really find an alternative:
1- I hate IE
2- I avoid using chrome
3- Firefox is cool, I use it for dev
4- I'm using it for anything not dev related (browsing SO etc...)
I liked Opera since it had the feature of merging tabs into a group since I've got a lot of tabs open
The new Opera has completely changed and removed this feature. It's now also using the chrome engine

TimWolla

:( I am out of Flags, out of votes, I almost reached my rep cap and already reviewed 20 Suggested edits.

Only the Close Vote and Reopen queue left.

Seth

@Undo should, yeah.

Why?

Undo

just wondering

I want to see how long I can keep that old laptop alive :P

Seth

Opera 12 is slow, but feature packed. Opera Next is fast, but feature less D:

hichris123

Need help. How can I change a body: inline block; in a CDN'd CSS file to nothing? Can't do inherit...

Undo

i-386 == 32-bit, right?

Seth

typo, excuse me.

HamZa

I think they screwed Opera, I mean they even removed the bookmark option which every browser has

@Undo right

Seth

@hichris123 inline block?

inline and block are opposites :S

hichris123

10:58 PM

@Seth ... that's what it is.

Seth

Full rule?

hichris123

hichris.erwaysoftware.com/instaglass/oauthlanding.php

.fa {
  display: inline-block;
  font-family: FontAwesome;
  font-style: normal;
  font-weight: normal;
  line-height: 1;
  -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
  -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;

HamZa

@hichris123 what do you mean to nothing ?

Annonomus Person

@hichris Your password field is incorrectly set up.

No little bullet point dot things.

hichris123

@AnnonomusPerson How so?

@AnnonomusPerson Oh, I'll fix that...

@HamZa Just as if the style rule wasn't there.

Seth

11:00 PM

What does HTML use as default again?

HamZa

@hichris123 Oh you mean you can't change the CSS file since it's served on another server you don't control ?

hichris123

@Seth Huh?

HamZa

@Seth inline or block, depends on the tag

hichris123

@HamZa Pretty much.

Seth

Just use body { display: whatEverTheDefaultIs !important; }

hichris123

11:01 PM

@Seth Hmm... how do I find the default?

HamZa

@hichris123 use block

TimWolla

@hichris123 Looks like I'll leave the below 10k club tomorrow

Seth

@hichris123 Depends. Overriding body isn't exactly a good idea.

HamZa

@TimWolla such rep farmer :P

hichris123

Aha! Got it. :D

TimWolla

11:03 PM

@HamZa All my answers are high quality!

Seth

You'll have to set each element after it to whatever their default (if it isn't block) is to set things straight.

hichris123

.fa{
    body: table-cell !important;
}

HamZa

@TimWolla let me check :P

@TimWolla Oh wait, you reached rep cap. So it would be a waste if I voted up

  -moz-background-size: cover;
  -o-background-size: cover;
  background-size: cover;

@hichris123 Also consider adding some placeholder text in the text fields.
