You don't need that now, but if I say: "The Italian Stallion Does Berlusconi", then you might... 
BTW: There's one more movie that has mistakenly(?) been left out of IMDb! Stallones first movie!

I don't know if it is too Alien to be hunted down, like a Predator, or just some kind of Scared Italian guy!

Surprised no one posted this. (or I looked over it)
Jean Claude Van Damme did a neat trick lately for a Volvo commercial:
See here[^]
So Chuck Norris, not to be outdone did the same thing. (more or less)
See here[^]

No! But see me doing almost the same: See here[^]...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

Well, she's certainly better looking at any rate...

You may or may not recall earlier this year when I described a Christmas-oriented jquery/javascript donation engine I created for the golden retriever rescue group my wife and I volunteer with. You can see the current implementation here - Gold Ribbon Rescue[^]. You can get to the tree by clicking the button in the first sliding panel that's displayed. Warning - you may have to refresh the page where the tree lives because it sometimes doesn't render all of the objects upon initially browsing to the page.
Anywho, that original effort resulted in six script files consuming about 34k of disk space, and utilizing a XML file for storing configuration and donation data.
This weekend, I refactored the entire thing to use a JSON file for the data, and whittled the code base down to a single 19k file. I also utilized the Kinetic.js library[^] to replace my original blinking light animation, as well as adding drag-n-drop capability for repositioning the ornaments (that represent donations) by the tree manager person.
I still have some work to do, but it's pretty far along. It's too bad the web host used by the rescue group uses a LAMP stack instead of ASP.net.
When I get a complete interactive asp.net version ready, I'll see about putting it up for y'all to play with.

Works well in Chrome, are You looking for feedback? I didn't hang out for long, but the site responds well enough.
By the way, It's nice that You two volunteer.

Nope, not looking for feedback, just posted the url so you can see the first iteration. However, if you have any clue as to why the tree doesn't always render all the way on the first visit, I'm all ears.

Is this a browser specific problem? Because it keeps working in Chrome.

No. In chrome, sometimes I don't get the first string of lights. Sometimes in ie, I don't get the background image. There are other variations of what I don't get as well.

John, could you repost your message? I would be interested in reading it.

There was nothing unpleasant or spammy, so why it's gone...
Methinks we need to rein some "instant-abuse" voters back a little?

I was just thinking that. There do seem to be a few trigger happy people. Actually, this is one of the benefits of browsing the site on Windows Phone; it's as near as darnit impossible to trigger anything from any of the drop down flags.

Oh? You can't pinch-zoom? (That's what I have to do on my Nexus 7)
|
|
|
|
|
Pinch zoom isn't the problem. The popup disappearing before you can click a link is the issue.

Strange - I assume it's a browser problem, it's pretty good on my tablet under Mobile Chrome (or whatever Google call it)
|
|
|
|
|
Of course it's a browser problem. It's IE. I really feel a Homer Simpson "doh" coming on.
|
|
|
|
|
Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you were afflicted blessed with using IE...
(I just did a quick Google, and it seems you are forced to the arms of IE...that's just cruel and unusual punishment!)

Yup. Doncha just lurv closed ecosystems?

This is one of the reasons I prefer Windows to Apple for PC, and am becoming a fan of Android for mobile devices. It may be a closed system, but it's a lot more "open" than the alternatives!
