  Re: Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
(...) That was my original plan - however I found that it actually is somewhat annoying, because too often the window would close by mistake. Also, by leaving it open, it allows comparing multiple sets (popups) at the same time. Maybe once I add (...) (18 years ago, 17-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
(...) G'day, Probably just me being difficult, but would it be possibe to: 1) have the window close when the mouse leaves it, instead of relying on clicking the 'X' 2) Have a seperate link in the info area for the inventory and instructions, so that (...)

  Re: Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
(...) Whoa! I'll take a look at that tomorrow morning. Probably could just add "textarea" to the tags to be left alone. (18 years ago, 17-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
(...) Well I was trying to do this and discovered a fairly major bug in the extension. When trying to edit a post on jlug (phpBB) which contained a set number it found the set number and promptly blanked the entire text edit box. Tim (18 years ago, 17-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
(...) Well I'm no expert either, but there seem to be right and left CSS properties that may be able to do it. I haven't really played with CSS much though, Tim G would be the guy to ask. ROSCO (18 years ago, 17-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Simple - it's only set up to run on certain sites... I'll add yours to the list though. (...) I'll look into that - if I can figure out how to do it, sure :) (...) I noticed that - if you could help me figure out the CSS for the peeron_popup, (...) (18 years ago, 16-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
(...) 3. If the link is near the right side of the page, clicking the kitty extends the page to the right, often introducing a horizontal scrollbar. But closing the info window does not reset the page width. Is it possible to right-align the info (...) (18 years ago, 16-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
(...) Hi Dan, I have 2 questions: 1. It doesn't seem to work for all pages, see (URL) any idea why that may be? 2. Is it possible to put the counter on the status bar instead of over the page corner? If the page is not scrollable it can obscure text (...) (18 years ago, 16-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
(...) WOW! works fine, but you should add a note telling that firefox could block the installation of add-ons based on your settings. at least I had to allow the installation and had to add peeron to the list of harmless sites. w. (18 years ago, 16-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Peeron Firefox Extension (beta)
 
This is my first attempt at writing a firefox extension. It will allow looking up information about sets mentioned in posts on various LEGO sites.

  Re: Trouble with IE, PNG and BS
 
(...) Yes, you have the point, all the troubles comes from the way I've recorded the PNGs, with the box "don't save alpha layer" checked...I hope so (I've not been able to check this yet). Didier (18 years ago, 16-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Trouble with IE, PNG and BS
 
(...) Huh! What happens when you try this one? (URL) the BS links, I get a black square in IE, but on the peeron one, it seems to be ok. Both work fine in FF, of course. I guess photoshop saves the png in a slightly different format? plat.png: PNG (...) (18 years ago, 16-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Trouble with IE, PNG and BS
 
(...) Yes, I have QT installed but IE does not launch it when I click the pictures deep links. I guess all this comes from the png file format, the way Photoshop record them (how it manages transparencies for instance) and the way viewers recognize (...)

Hello geeks, I have reserved a domain name for my website, and now I am looking for a web designer, who could work for me to build my site. I dont have a big budget, but I can barter with lego sets.
