Wow, on Hacker News, cheers guys!

I'm Harry, the guy who made inuit.css. There is a link to inuit.css in the page's h1, which I know is way too hidden: http://csswizardry.com/inuitcss/css/inuit.css

I'm a designer/front-end dev at heart so I don't know Git(hub) at all. I have made an account about an hour ago though and I'm hoping to get inuit.css on there asap. Just gotta learn it now.

Cheers, H

Any reason for using height:101% instead of overflow-y:auto for scrollbars?

Also, shouldn't the utf-8 declaration be at the top before a massive block of commented text? Though in practice I'm not sure if it matters much either way.

Thanks

overflow-y, although relatively stable, has only been officially proposed in CSS3. So I could (and might) use overflow-y, but the height:101%; is a hangover from when overflow-y was a non-standard bit of CSS.

I don't dislike the overflow-y method, I just used the one I've used for year. I might update inuit.css to use the more obvious overflow-y property soon though.

Good spot on the charset declaration though. Thank you very much. I'll update on my lunch break or something :)

Thanks, H

The brief tutorial that appears after you finish creating a Github repository is the quick and easy way to get it up on Github. Install git, create a github repo, then follow that tutorial and you're up and running.

I just created a gist here: https://gist.github.com/942218

Should be a nice middle ground?

perhaps a nice cheat sheet may be up your street? I found looking at a blueprint one a nice way to get an overview of what is available.

Thanks, I had no idea that was a link. The color is the same as your logo color, which is tres confusing.
