Steps to install a Comodo PositiveSSL certificate with Nginx.

Setting up a SSL Cert from Comodo

I use Namecheap.com as a registrar, and they resale SSL Certs from a number of other companies, including Comodo.

Lock and unlock a page's scroll position.

jquery.scrollLock.js

Useful for when a blocking user experience is needed (in my case, didn't want people unwittingly loosing their place by scrolling while a modal required their attention): $.scrollLock() locks the body in place, preventing scroll until it is unlocked.

// Locks the page if it's currently unlocked
$.scrollLock();

// ...or vice versa
