Drupalcon DC is starting in a week, so I have packed all the swag I could find at the office, and now im ready to rock DC

Tshirt Galore

I will bring the last of the Drupalcamp.dk tshirts - so come by me and by one, support the drupal.org update :)

Now 2 days after the Drupalcamp in Cologne (which was "fielspass" <- see i kinda learned some german), I sat down and took a hard look at my old custom basetheme and thought about:
* Should get on the bandwagon of grid based css frameworks?
* getting accessibility done right -ya know title & content in top of the page menus in the buttom
* make sure that i can use this for any design a client comes with (both grid and nongrid designs)
* .. and clean up the last bit of crap that was floating around.
* and how can I give stuff back to the people!

Accessability

Today Im gonna look on how to control the width of an element and how you dont get confused (and angry) over the padding + border + foo + margin + width + foo + whatever ... aaargh giiive me a break goddammit i command you div be 300px wide no more no less!

As a followup from yesterdays -"Just remove all the $styles and use you own" I guess it would be nice with a small replacement, that at least took some of the basic styles that every drupal site at some point enters. If you dont use an admin theme (or not a redirecting all the edit pages to that admin theme). You will need some of these classes, but i guess you figured that out?

The first one were gonna start out with is actually a really really (really) simple trick that took me a while to actually get the grip on, yup havent said I was intelligent, and yes it is really obvious, but sometimes you cant se the forrest for all the trees.
