CSS to Color Outline Elements of HTML/XHTML Document

Posted by John

I found this handy little snippet of CSS that puts a colored outline around the border of every element in an HTML/XHTML document, helping you to visualize the structure. Thanks Programming is Hard.

PLAIN TEXT

CSS:

* { outline: 2px dotted red }
* * { outline: 2px dotted green }
* * * { outline: 2px dotted orange }
* * * * { outline: 2px dotted blue }
* * * * * { outline: 1px solid red }
* * * * * * { outline: 1px solid green }
* * * * * * * { outline: 1px solid orange }
* * * * * * * * { outline: 1px solid blue }

Comment Blacklist Updated

Posted by John

Here is my latest list of blacklisted words that I maintain on my WordPress blog. Download the file (Right-click and save or click, copy and paste) and add the list of words into your Comment Blacklist located under Options and Discussion. I receive over 500 spam comments a day and very, very few get through. If they do, I add the keywords to this list.
