MicroB hacking
 
I have been "fiddling" with tricks to make MicroB more usable and I just stumbled across many neat enhancements.

In your userContent.css

Code:
/* Listed most compatible to most trouble */

/* Make links bigger by default, can still be overridden by pages */
a { padding: 1em; margin: -.8em; }

/* Make it harder for pages to be bigger than the display ( thanks Rider ) */
* { max-width: 100% !important; min-width: 0px !important }

/* Make tiny text areas a thing of the past */
input { min-height: 18px ! important }
If another MicroB tweaker could try these globals it would help me refine them some.

Hmm this appears to work better.

Code:
a { padding: 1em; margin: -.8em; }
It doesn't change the page layout as much as the last one while keeping the finger mashing tiny links.

EDIT: I can now easily select individual page numbers on long threads without using a stylus.

This "new" code appears to be identical, character for character, to the code in Post #1.

It was something else before, I guess he reposted so the people already using the hacks (like me for example) could update their userContent.css and the first post updated so people don't use the wrong line.

I still need my original table data hack to keep certain websites readable without scrolling horizontally:

Code:
td {max-width : 780px ! important ; }

Do you still require what I thought went with it:

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

or did I misunderstand what the @namespace line was about?? (Which would explain why I can't even post what you had ... ITT keeps turning it into a link, but I thought you had had it as code to put in the css script.)

Also, do you find your table data hack conflicts with any of Brontide's, or just throw them all in??

thanks!

I first threw them all in which does not conflict. But I noticed that Brontide's " * { max-width: 100% !important; min-width: 0px !important }" conflicts with the google-map hack which was posted here in a different thread. So I commented it out again.

(not sure if the @namespace line is necessary, but it doesn't hurt and should be placed at the beginning of the CSS file)

Re: MicroB hacking
 
Some sites seem to override padding or margins, but not both making for some interesting effects. The utility of the finger friendly links far outweighs some issues here and there and the pages are generally still readable.

As for google maps, there is something weird going on there and I'm not positive how to resolve it. I will try your css over mine too see how they both work.

Fiddling with overall site CSS is something i will not do. Better someone ports the Stylish plugin.

Re: MicroB hacking
 
I assume you know you can do site-specific CSS, too, in the same way... but it's not very convenient, to say the least.

What I'd like is (a clone of) Opera's Developer Console; that is just sweet for CSSing things up.
