In an HTML page, elements can overlap because of position styles. When there's an overlap, elements coming later in the HTML code are displayed on the top. This can be altered by specifying z-index in the CSS. Elements with higher z-index are placed on the top.
However , z-index only works for elements that are not static positioned. Static positioned elements are always at the bottom compared to relative , fixed and absolute positioned elements.
This is a test page:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style t...
Effects of z-index can be tested by adding it to the elements, for example:
<div id="bg" class="big" style="z-index: 3"></div>...

It's probably more useful to make the JavaScript executor a bookmarklet. That way it gains access to the page on which it is invoked. Therefore, more helpful while debugging. Here's the code:
<html>
<body>
<a href="javascript:(funct...
Or, you can add this link to your bookmarks, name it "JS Executor". For a full featured JavaScript console, you may need Jash

The code presented here is a simple implementation of a tab set. It is used to demo how a tab set could be implemented. The code is stand alone and does not depend on any JavaScript libraries. Multiple tab sets within the same page is supported.
The HTML markup is fairly simple:
Tabs sets are contained within a DIV element with class name "tabsContainer".
Define a UL list for the tabs.
Follow the UL list with equal number of DIVs for the tab contents.
The Nifty Corners Cube technique is used to draw the rounded corners (original form, not the enhanced JavaScript form).
HTML, CSS and JavaScript:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<style typ...

If you ever wonder how those "cool" dialog boxes are made, copy and paste the following code to a file and test it with your browser. This is probably the simplest code for such effects. If you don't know what I mean, try it anyway.

The splice method cuts elements from an array, and returns the cut-off elements as a new array.
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];
b = a.splice(1, ...

By default, heights for jQuery UI tab panels expand or contract depending on the height of each tab. The code snippet here sets the height of all tabs to be equal to that of the container.

This is a simple web application with a single servlet and a single JSP page. It is intended to be a test bed for JSTL tags. You may want to store all syntax, rules, and exceptions in your head, but in my opinion nothing beats a simple test program that allows you play with it all you want. So here it is (build with Maven ). Prerequisites: Maven: http://maven.apache.org/ . You don't need any prior knowledge of Maven, but you need to install the binary. JBoss: http://jboss.org/jbossas/downloads/ , or Tomcat: http://tomcat.apache.org/ if you don't run the SQL tests. You need to know how to deploy a web application (shh! Don't tell your boss it's just copying a file to the deployment folder). Steps: The directory...
