CSS help

[kristell]

Can anyone point me to someone who can help me with some css?  I am having trouble with parallax on mobiles and although have found various coding for the css nothing works - and I need somebody who understands it to help me.

Not sure if there is anyone on this site or if you can refer me elsewhere for some support.

Thank you.

Hello @kristell

Did you mean CSS as in creating web pages?

I have no experience with it myself. Just searches on Google

Yes - that's correct CSS for website development.  I need someone to look at the code.  I have tried some of those examples (thank you) but can't seem to get it to work.  So I was looking for a forum where I could get somebody to look at the code and see what's happening.

Not always as quick as one would like, but posting on the stackoverflow site often gets a reply. Just make sure you post in the correct location as they can be very picky about where you post.

Wish I had another resource for you but not something I've done before myself.

I could possibly check with some other resources internally tomorrow during the day and if I find anything post back again

Cheers

Thanks Ron - yes please do investigate.  I will attempt to post over on Stackoverflow.

Another site that you may be able to get some answers is at the spiceworks website/forum

Thanks Firefox - just back from work and starting to sort it again.   Appreciate that.

Stackoverflow is a bad choice for this. For one thing they tend to be rude, especially for beginners. If the question is a beginner questions they are likely to criticize it. They expect you to first search for previous answers and if we don't know enough to know how to search for a relevant answer then they are not likely to be understanding. They only want questions that have not been asked before and they strongly discourage discussion.

You can try the The SitePoint Forums. I don't like them for two reasons; for one they are lousy at discussing philosophical topics and another is that they are too competitive and quite intolerant when I post links to other sites. They however might be quite helpful at solving problems such as this for beginners.

I have in the past posted a philosophical question about CSS. Those people never could understand my question. Some responses tried to tell me how to solve my problem but I did not have a problem to solve; my question was more about the design of CSS than the use of it.

CSS is way too complicated for what it does. There are too many exceptions and peculiarities. HTML was not designed well (it was not designed to do many of the things it is now used to do) and CSS was designed to enhance HTML and  CSS adds to the confusion. I have been programming for nearly half a century and have learned many languages and I sure have difficulty with CSS. Assembly language is easier for me to understand than CSS because the makers of processors document their machine's instructions with precision..

Removed hyperlink due to very agressive SEO marketing

Thank you for your input @IsThisAllowed

I don't disagree that Stackoverflow is a bit on the rude side, and I did say they are very picky.

As for the sitepoint link I removed the hyperlink as they are very aggressive in marketing and SEO. Anyone that wants to visit that site is advised to use both an Ad Blocker and script blocker and chose which elements you want to allow.
