Test your CSS skills quiz #10

**geargolum** · Jan 19, 2009, 10:43

I give up... don't even know where to start...

I'll probably hate myself when I since the answer(s) for not thinking about it...

**RyanReese** · Jan 19, 2009, 11:22

I got everything but the text different colors. Resizing and all is done just the damn text effect...is it some CSS3 property or something? I have no idea...

Edit: 1 more try before I give up...

**YuriKolovsky** · Jan 19, 2009, 11:27

RyanReese don't give up
just think, if it works perfectly in all browsers except ie6, then its definitely not CSS3, nor anything super new.
as i said before, it even works in ie6!!!! (with a small hack fixable bug)

**RyanReese** · Jan 19, 2009, 11:28

LOL WOW II JUST MOVED THE TEXT ONE LINE UP AND IT STARTED OWRKING LOLL WOOWOWOWOWWO.

Gonna submit soon.

**RyanReese** · Jan 19, 2009, 11:29

Also he said it didn't need to work in IE.

congratulations

i have no idea on what you have there, when this quiz is finished, if our solutions don't get shown, then we must post them too, because
hearing JUST MOVED THE TEXT ONE LINE UP, makes me very curious.

Also he said it didn't need to work in IE.

does yours work in ie6?

**RyanReese** · Jan 19, 2009, 11:41

I don't know. Wow I got it inside there but the text isnt changing over but I know why....gay...I can't fix it like that.

**YuriKolovsky** · Jan 19, 2009, 15:33

this whole thing is interesting, now i must try all the other quizzes, i loved #9, the only other quiz i did, which i happened to have needed in real life some time ago, and the navigation one is very interesting too, and test #6 is a must do (i will do it next), as i do suffer from divitis and classitis (it's the fear of accidentally affecting something that i don't want to affect)

i feel like a fat kid in a chocolate shop.

@Paul: is there a way to get a pm whenever you make a new quiz?

Well, if you stay subscribed to this thread I'll post a message here when I set up a new quiz.

**Irvine** · Jan 19, 2009, 15:57

I'll try this out. Gimme some time man!

**phrenetical** · Jan 19, 2009, 19:51

yeah same boat, no idea how to do the text, the layout was easy enough.

**aguroyz** · Jan 20, 2009, 02:28

Konichiwa...

I'm just wondering if you could also set up quizzes for newbies/beginners like me...

I tried to solve some of your challenges but unfortunately it was beyond my capacity yet... I didn't even realize that there were hacks on CSS... heheh

**Stormrider** · Jan 20, 2009, 02:28

Bah, the thing I tried didn't work. I'll have to have a rethink

It's hard to gauge the level at which to target the quizzes as everybody is different. I suppose next time I could try and offer two versions e.g.one simple and one difficult but based on the same thing. May take a bit of thought

**enormousrodent** · Jan 20, 2009, 08:47

Let me have a go!!!

**molona** · Jan 20, 2009, 11:35

Paul, you know you are cruel, don't you? Why do you tempt me with these little games when I am not supposed to be playing? Ok, Ok, I'll give it a try... although it would be embarrasing for me if I do not get a decent answer... but after all, that's why we here... to learn

**RyanReese** · Jan 20, 2009, 12:23

Meh I found a way but getting the borders on there screws it up for me <_<. I don't have the time to troubleshoot

You know the saying "All work and no play"

**fantomknight10** · Jan 20, 2009, 14:37

wow very intersting

**molona** · Jan 20, 2009, 15:39

Can't give it more time... I know I am close... but when the text fits for a variable width/hieght, then one of the boxes doesn't... it is only one... I will think it over tomorrow if I have the time

**SoulScratch** · Jan 20, 2009, 16:02

Friggin work ;( Hopefully I'll have time this week.

**Paul O'B** · Jan 21, 2009, 03:24

OK - I'll give the answers on Friday to give the stragglers time to have a go

We also have another correct entry from loginsan so well done

At present there seems to be 2 basic methods of solving this.

Here is a vague clue to one answer so don't read it if you want to do this alone:

Those that succeed will get lots of admiration and for those of you struggling with this all you will get is a clip around the ear
