Chrome issue with background-attachment fixed and position fixed elements

Since a fixed positioned background seems to break for no reason in Chrome, you can potentially try playing around with the clip and position:fixed properties.

Optimizing SVG-based sprite-sheets for CSS3 HW GPU acceleration in the (mobile) browser

Pretty cool idea. How about changing the zindex of the frames so you are layering the images on top of each other? This might solve the flickering because during the redraw the last frame is still visible. So, you’d just keep increasing the zindex value of the latest frame.

How to embed a browser object, other than IE, in a Delphi application

TWebBrowser is IE. It is not a plugable construction for browsers. You can have other browsers integrated in your application.

Is there a way to send key presses to Webkit using Capybara?

I’ve been trying to implement Marc’s answer without any success, but I found some help from a similar question: capybara: fill in form field value with terminating enter key. And apparently there was a pull request from capybara that seems to address this issue. What worked for me was: before { fill_in “some_field_id”, with: “\t” … Read more
