"Commented code so anyone that finds it can easily use it :)" - you mean like I do with mine so others can use it (as you appear to have ;) )? =D On that note, I'll have to steal borrow the bit that keeps the toolbox open; that bugs me too =) and before you ask, yeah, I make a habit of stalking other users' CSS and JS pages on wikis so I can see all the cool/crazy stuff they do with them XD

On a more serious note, I'd recommend that the toolbar CSS I have in my vector.css file be added to MediaWiki:Common.css. I got it directly from Wikipedia's Common.css file some time after it was added, so it's been thoroughly tested, and it addresses a pretty serious issue with the toolbar (and for an added bonus, it has no effect whatsoever for users who have the toolbar disabled in their preferences anyways ;) ). 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 05:08, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * What does it actually do? I've never had the toolbar enabled so I had no idea there was a problem. – ultradude25 ( T at 05:16, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * When the toolbar is enabled, it loads after the rest of the page does. This wouldn't be a problem, except that there is no CSS in place to pad where the toolbar is going to be after it's loaded. This means that after the edit box loads, the toolbar loading and rendering causes the edit box to jump down a significant amount (at least one line's height). To make matters worse, clicks aren't registered until after the toolbar loads, which means you can click on the top line of the edit box and the click will instead register as one of the toolbar options. The CSS adds padding to force the edit box further down, preventing it from jumping after the toolbar loads. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 06:09, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd prefer than no changes are made to the global css unless it is discussed by the community at large. That should be done on MediaWiki talk:Common.css. It's not up to a single user what to add to the global functioning of the wiki. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  06:56, 24 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Well it appears to just be an atheistic fix, so I don't see what there is to discuss. – ultradude25 ( T at 07:02, 24 March 2011 (UTC)


 * You mean "aesthetic" rather than "atheistic", right? They're two quite different things ;) I agree; this is nothing like my prior request for the sysop bit to add infobox and navbox styles to the global css. It's not adding styles so much as fixing a bug (and one which has a documented history, at least on Wikipedia, of being responsible for the accidental insertion of useless markup into pages). 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 16:13, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
