- jord, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14flash is a little to "heavy" for a simple gallery... thats the point of all this..
- Bucky, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12Did anyone else read the description of this and think that there were actual images created via CSS? I expected something like that one page that validates your brower's ability to conform to Web standard by drawing a smiley face.
- Toshibi, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11I will post one any minute now...
- ThePhilomath, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6There's another example of this here: http://www.mondaybynoon.com/2006/03/27/suckerfish-hoverlightbox/
This time with javascript to display the final image; although, I think that it is degradeable. - Shinglor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Nice use of CSS certainly but it's not really that amazing. I don't understand why there are unordered lists with a single element, I would have put each image in it's own list item. What's with the blank title attributes?
- jutendouji, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I believe that CSS is lighter than JS, and it's a lot more powerful in many ways. And basically all browsers support CSS correctly so it's a better alternative than JS sometimes.
- garraeth, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5A 100% CSS gallery. Now that I have seen this, my life is complete.
- craigtheguru, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Usually I don't digg this kinda stuff, but this time I'll digg due to its lack of JavaScript. Not that I'm a JS hater.
- datagod, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5It sure looks pretty and everything, but when I want to views photgraphs the last thing I want is a stupid mouse pointer hovering over some chicks face. I got annoyed after about 8 seconds. Is there any way to make the cursor fade away, as the picture comes into view?
- economissed, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I'm curious how much he paid the suckerfish and lightbox folks.
- jord, on 10/12/2007, -5/+8looks kinda wonky in IE
- dudinatrix, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4So many CSS (&JS) image galleries lately! The lack of JS in this digg is awesome though!

- arizonagroove, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Typical stupid yank comment.
Hey, if you can make a dumb all encompassing statement about an entire nation then so can I.
(Just to be very clear, I'm not saying all American's are stupid or trying to start a pointless US v UK flame war. I'm just making a point.) - markos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Dugg, but I don't need you to tell me it's awesome.
- Tripcast, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Nice to see something like this done simply in CSS. It's not going to work for every situation, but it's another option available from the myriad of galleries out there
- DigitalDud, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Well, I'm using the March 20th release maybe you have the older one? It had a lot of rendering bugs.
- illu45, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Nice.... Very fast menus, although it is a bit annoying if you move your mouse over it accidentally and all of these thumbnails pop out. Still, very interesting stuff...
P.S. Oh... anyone else notice that the "flower" pictures aren't actually pictures of flowers? :D - ManInTheBunker, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3hey berean: Its not to convice people to use CSS and only CSS, its to show off a proof of concept. You know you can choose to not click on CSS articles right??
I think your Mom's calling you anyway... - prence, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Agreed, just what the Internet needs huh? Another bastard content thief.
- adizzle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I must admit, I am guilty as well...
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Wow, that's impressively sexy.
- arizonagroove, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Nifty, but not awsome. You have to click the back button after viewing the large version of any image, for me that quickly gets irritating. It also looks a bit inelegant because everytime you click on an image you get taken away from the styled page to one which just contains the image.
I much prefer being able to see the thumbs along side the large version of the image. I dont have to keep clicking back all the time. - DocXango, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3A:Hover{} for one, whenever you mouse over a link, it will trigger the CSS.
-digg for you, dig through all the CSS. - lostboytexas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2right, he ripped someones elses idea, amde a few changes and wants donation for all his 'hard work'. *****
- Hacktivist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Isn't this the same as that suckerfish-lighbtbox hover thing with just the js removed?
- dudinatrix, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I've seen much worse stuff get many more diggs :) New or not, it's a good effort and fun to play with.
- bigpeeler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I thoroughly enjoyed that. Very slick & intuitive. And yes Bucky, I too at first thought there were CSS created photos. ;-) Hey, now that would be something!
- Siethu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1sure there is a way.
you just got to add one more css style code and a 1x1 transparent gif cursor image
http://en.selfhtml.org/css/eigenschaften/anzeigefenster.htm#cursor - Powerdrift, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is actually quite simple to do.
- DigitalDud, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's interesting that the IE7 beta displays a lot of the "Mozilla only" stuff on that site.
- timrosenberg, on 10/22/2009, -4/+5I thought so too... so we're both idiots.
- meowcow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1it seems to use alot of memory too. My memory on my box skyrockets
- arizonagroove, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"(using all 3 browsers)"
I think you mean 'all 3 browsers I have installed on my computer'. There are more than 3 browsers in the world you know. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'd just like to point out that the IMAGES are not CSS. If you want your images in CSS too, check out my nifty and useless waste of time converter: http://elliottback.com/wp/archives/2005/04/25/convert-image-to-css/
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Looks very nice in FF. But then, pretty much everything does compared to what you see in IE :)
- BluParadox, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2@ryanknapper: The idea is that you used semantic markup so it makes perfect sense even without any styling. Obviously it will look different though.
That or he was refering to firefox 2.0, lol - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i thought this was like my idea of converting images to pure css with lots of absolute divs with php.
but only i would do that - lostboytexas, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4Anyone else feel violated by the 'copyright' section? I feel like telling him to shove his CSS up his ASS and get a real job. Typical Brit.
- aThing, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Breaking news: It is literally impossible to make a page just with CSS!
- burnt1ce85, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2I have a question.. not that i am belittling the story but what are the advantages of just using CSS and no javascript? yes i am a noob but everybody has to start somewhere.
- nthitz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1The site doesn't seem to work for me in IE7.
- 2L84ME, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Good point, I don't even have a mouse (I use a touchpad on a laptop); I rely on the scroll bars.
- kyrre, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1@jutendouji: That would be wrong. Basically no browser support CSS correctly. However CSS could be considered lightweight than Javascript, and CSS will support "fallback" for browser not supporting CSS (or Javascript). Examples could be old hardware, loonies on Netscape 3, many cell phones, and the really important one: Search engines. The layout on that site absolutely makes sense even for browsers with no CSS support. If you have Firefox or equivalent you can see for yourself. Open the menu view -> page style -> no style.
- odysseus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Maybe it's my slow computer, but I have to hover over the thumbnail for 2-3 seconds before it's clickable into a 640x480 image. Otherwise, clicking the thumbnail does nothing. (using all 3 browsers)
- noseeme, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1There are a lot of articles on digg about AJAX and CSS, but this is really cool.
- cyzn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That's not possible (using CSS only), as there is no pseudo-class in CSS to capture a mouse click event.
- Siethu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I have to correct myself. A 1x1 gif image is only possible for ie 6.0.
Best you can get that works in every browser would be to add "cursor: crosshair". - runningnick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Really impressive, and neat use of CSS! But: now resize your browser's window to 800 x 600, and try to scroll down without using the scroll wheel on your mouse (ie, try to use the scroll bar).
You think all Web surfers are going to know when to press the down arrow key?
At least with JavaScript, you could set some sort of timer. - SenyWD, on 02/25/2009, -0/+0Download free standards compliant CSS layouts: http://www.free-css-layouts.com
