  • Open Source Bible Translation

    I was listening to the API podcast where Rob & Matt mentioned copyrighted Bible translations, and I totally agree. Why should the Bible be copyright?

    Why don't we (and by 'we' I mean someone else ;) setup a Wikipedia-style website that let's people translate the Bible freely, with possibly an API to integrate it into other software (like open source Bible study tools, CMS's, etc.)? Have a free-to-use-and-edit Bible translation that will not only be current in today's culture, but can stay current and evolve over time (not the meaning, but the wording and the way it's explained).

  • Major Drupal problems!

    I've been having some major problems with my Drupal website recently. Hoping someone here might be able to help...

    As posted here, I'm having a problem with Drupal's permissions. Basically, I can't edit or save new permissions - I tick the boxes and hit Save, but when the page reloads, there's no confirmation message saying the changes have been saved, and the changes I made have been reverted back to how they were before.

  • Styling nested lists

    I have a nested list I'm trying to style with CSS, but am having a problem...

    The inner-most li styles are being overridden by the main li styles. Here's my CSS code:

    #navigation #block-nice_menus-1 ul li {
      float: left;
      line-height: 2em;
      padding: 0 1.5em 0 0;
    }

    #block-nice_menus-1 ul li ul li {
      float: none;
      font-weight: normal;
      line-height: 2.5em;
      padding: 0;
    }

    ALL my li's are floated left, even though I want the inner-most ones not to be floated at all.

  • Making a jQuery menu

    I'm trying to use jQuery to make nested HTML lists expandable and collapsable, but need some help...

    The code I have is currently running from a $(document).ready() function and as a result my menu/list is being reset at every page load (collapsed back to normal). How do I make my menu stay expanded between page loads?

    Here's the code I'm using:

    $(document).ready(function() {
    // Hide all child links by default
    $('#pondering-archives ul').hide();

    // Display child links when parent link is clicked
    $('#pondering-archives .title').click(function() {

  • Convert nested ul list to Drupal menu

    There are lots of great modules that make menus look and act nicer (e.g. Nice Menus and DHTML Menu).

    The problem is that these modules don't work with HTML lists (<ul>, <ol>, <dl>, etc.). Lists are the closest thing to a menu you can output from Views, but then they can't be styled using these modules.

    Has anyone had this same problem before? What did you do about it?
