How many keyboards do you go through in a year?

Nice tut btw.

[CodrEu]

@MrZugara Not alot really, I've had the same keyboard for approximately a year (Razer Tarantula)

Why not just use an unordered list for the "navigation" ? overcomplicating things doesn't make one look smarter

[CodrEu]

@Zooter007 I'm still quite new to jQuery. I also tried to use unordered lists before doing this tutorial, but it didn't work as I wanted it too.

I'm not saying it's being smart, but obviously you are trying to be with the above comment. If you don't like the tutorial then please, don't watch it. :)

Thanks, good video. What IDE are you using? It looks like Eclipse?

[Zooter007]

I do apologize for the harsh comment. I just meant to actually say that it is more correct to use unordered list items for navigation than other html elements.

Whatever works in the end if good I suppose.
