scrollIntoViewIfNeeded 4 everyone!!!

scrollIntoViewIfNeeded 4 everyone!!!

This gist provides a simple JavaScript implementation of the non-standard WebKit method scrollIntoViewIfNeeded that can be called on DOM elements.

Usage

Just use the code in index.js in your app or website. You can see usage in the test page test.html.

The parent element will only scroll if the element being called is out of the view. The boolean can force the element to be centered in the scrolling area.

cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/Sublime\ Text\ 3/Packages/
git clone git://github.com/wbond/sublime_package_control.git Package\ Control
cd Package\ Control
git checkout python3
# restart Sublime Text 3 and you should have Package Control working

Can you help me understand the benefit of require.js?

I'm having trouble understanding the benefit of require.js. Can you help me out? I imagine other developers have a similar interest.

From Require.js - Why AMD:

The AMD format comes from wanting a module format that was better than today's "write a bunch of script tags with implicit dependencies that you have to manually order"

I don't quite understand why this methodology is so bad. The difficult part is that you have to manually order dependencies. But the benefit is that you don't have an additional layer of abstraction.

How to hide <select> dropdown's arrow in Firefox when using "-moz-appearance: none;".

This is no longer a bug. I'm keeping the gist for historical reasons, as it helped to get it fixed. Make sure to read the notes by the end of the post.

How to remove hide the select arrow in Firefox using -moz-appearance:none;

TL;DR (or, the fix)

  1. Set -moz-appearance to none. This will "reset" the styling of the element;
  2. Set text-indent to 0.01px. This will "push" the text a tiny bit[1] to the right;

Generate ctags for Atom (or for any other reason) on Mac os X

Why?

Atom can automagically picks up any tags file in your current directory which enables you to:

  • shift+cmd+r search for any function in your project
  • alt+cmd+down GoTo a function declaration

How

Get brew if you don't already have it. Then:

brew install ctags
