Recently I ran into a small, but annoying issue issue while coding a raw data viewer component. The solution I came up with is perhaps a bit unorthodox, some might even call it hacky. Hacky or not, it works in all browsers (even IE8), and is probably less of a hassle than implementing a fix with JavaScript, I thought I'd share it with you.

I'm currently the only developer working with CSS for the application we develope. This has given me the chance to architect the code as I best see fit. Writing some 8000+ lines of SCSS has taught me a lot, and I'd like to share one epiphany with you.

This web application uses the same design pattern over and over again. I'm not sure what exactly this pattern is called, but I'll just call it scrollbox for a lack of a better name.

The other day I saw a on tweet from Dennis Gaebel also known as @gryghostvisuals, from grayghostvisuals.com, who wanted to give back to community by offering mentoring. For a while I had been looking to learn from someone better than me, so I jumped at the opportunity.
