I took a few hours today to make a tool to help me convert CSS snippets betwen single-line and multi-line.

lazyCSS.com

Right now it’s just a bare-bones site but I hope to flesh it out within the next week… month… year? One neat little feature I threw in there for this “alpha” version is that CSS properties are sorted alphabetically. If you have a vendor prefix, it ignores it. I hope to have the app remember settings between uses, automatically detect if the input is single or multi-line, and handle comments, and automatically collimate multi-line css.

So I’ve been playing this game called BattleForge, and there are a handful of websites that exist just to display information about these cards you can collect in the game (think Magic: The Gathering or Pokemon). People have also made Adobe AIR applications and Microsoft Access databases. So, naturally I thought I would pollute the web with another website.

At first, I was going to use xml + xslt to make it. I actually got a proof of concept working nicely. But once I tried using javascript, it got weird on me because it was XML instead of HTML. Then I changed it to plain HTML + an XHR request to get the XML file and got basic realtime filters working. Then someone pointed out that there was some google docs with the information I wanted so I switched from XML to JSONP.

Anyways, this is the limit of my attention span so I’ll paste the URL now. http://allbfcards.com/
