Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Omnis, your Mac doesn't ask you to update Java? It's not just my PC that requests that of me.

Not that I recall. And certainly not every week like the PC is doing.

Does anyone have a rrocmmendation for a sturdy dashboard cell phone holder for a Droid phone?
Mom is pestering me for Xmas list, and I have wanted on for a while.
I'm looking for something study, basic, and not too dear. Perhaps a no-hands plus in so I can talk through the car speakers (I have a cassest adapter -- yeah, my car is old -- but no having that wouldn't be a deal breaker. I'm mostly hoping to be able to see GPS diractions easily.

I just got asked to update Java today. I'm not sure why I'd be getting them much more than you. But it's always updating something, it feels like.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Which model Droid, Strix? The original?

The Galaxy 2s (I think; I'm a little hepped up on goofballs.)
Not the newest version; the one before that.
I don't need anything fancy; just practical.

I'm a little hepped up on goofballs.
Me too!
Also, I get updates for Java on my Mac a lot. (Just to provide a hopped-up-on-goofballs anecdata point.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think we need more anecdata like this.
OK, I have an HTML question:
I'm playing around with the jquery jsTree control. What I want to do is have the jsTree control expand as the user clicks on nodes to expand them, and if it expands to be bigger than its allocated size I want it to overlay whatever is below it.
This is part of my test page:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<div id="treeViewDiv" style="height: 100px; overflow:visible; z-index: 2">
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
This is some plain text (no tags) in a new row after the "treeViewDiv".
</td>
</tr>
</table>
(eta: The jsTree control is placed in the div by javascript.)
When I run this, the jsTree control does not force the next row of the table down (which is correct) but it does not overlay the row beneath it. What am I missing?
I tried adding a z-index setting to the style, but it didn't help.
eta²:
Fuck. This works correctly in Chrome but not IE 8.
eta: GOT IT WORKING! It's a bug in IE. The workaround is to add 'position:relative' to the style.
