Today’s dumb incidents: CSS bomb + Dreamweaver spacing fix

August 25, 2008 at 6:40 am, Scorpiono

Have you watched “In pursuit of happyness” with Will Smith ?
Because if you did, do you remember the chapter called “This is the chapter called me being stupid” ?

I’m going to write today both about the web master’s part of my life and the personal one, they somehow bind together and generate these dumb actions.

1. I’m editing my CSS like a little css wizzard and screw the header.png somehow

Believe me, up to this point I have no ideea how I messed up the css. I have added a new class .royal with a certain pattern as background-repeat, nothing fancy. Boom, my header.png starts to become an old version of the blog, has nothing to do with the current theme and it looks like crap. I have no idea up to this point how I managed, but I do know I had to get an old version of the current theme, re-create the background gradient and apply it on the site. The good side is that the blog looks even better as I had a small rendering color problem.

2. I’m asking the question of my life in DigitalPoint

I’m getting frustrated after the CSS thingy that screwed my blog and I go to DigitalPoint asking how I can fix my Dreamweaver from putting all those indent blank lines between my code lines.

Subject: Dreamweaver CS issue with code line spacing

I’m dying to find out this one more than any PHP thread I might have placed on DP.

I’m using dreamweaver in “code” enviroment, and it always taps a blank line between my code. It’s so annoying and most of all, when I checked my .css today, I had 1000 lines because he somehow added 4 blank lines between my code lines.

Any idea how to turn it off? I went to Code format, but doesn’t seem to work. I might do something wrong.

Also, any ideea how I clear my code out of blank lines?

Thanks a million,

One second after I write this post, I click a bucket and everything is perfect.

How the *heck* everything works after I make myself look stupid by asking the question, thanks anyway.
