Issue with mobile website

Image
By User


I have a mobile version of my site that I have an issue with. My main site is (let's say) domain.com and my mobile site is (let's say) m.dom.com



I have common js/css and images I use for both and I don't want to duplicate the files to either both sites. if I need to update I don't want to copy over and over or just forget to upload the other file.



My mobile site is setup in a sub folder of my main site /mobile so i have domain.com/mobile is the same as m.dom.com



is there an easy way to not duplicate/copy over and over the images/js?

    Create symblink from the parent folder:

    Using ssh or plesk or cpanel:

    shell:/path/to/www/mobile> ln -s ../js/
    shell:/path/to/www/mobile> ln -s ../images/
    shell:/path/to/www/mobile> ln -s ../css/
    etc...


    This will create a symbolic link from your main site so you only have to uploads the file from your main site and automatically the mobile will get updated.

    So when you access the /js/file.js in your mobile site it will look for the symblink which is the main /js/file.js.

    Also I would recommend to use this rule (from your main site - .htaccess) in case the /mobile/ is accessed from a bot or a user.

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com$ [NC]
    RewriteRule ^mobile/?$ http://m.dom.com/ [R=301]

    Use CSS to modify the content so you that you don't have to create the same thing twice

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

By User
I am using the slimScroll plugin for jQuery by Piotr Rochala Which is a great plugin for nice scrollbars on most browsers but I am stuck because I am using it for a chat box and whenever the user appends new text to the boxit does scroll using the .scrollTop() method however the plugin's scrollbar doesnt scroll with it and when the user wants to look though the chat history it will start scrolling from near the top. I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

By User
The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome.
