Its been so long since I had done anything without them, that I must admit. It took me over an hour of debugging to work out the javascript for that stuff to work (i forgot the blur bit ;D)

Anyway.

next videos planned:

Geolocation
Notifications API

There is also a 'fix' because I was being stupid, and the code didn't work because I forgot to upload it to the server (d'oh)

So you dont need to watch that video that prevails this, but. If you want to. Its here:

I noticed how the placeholders didn't go back to grey text but stayed black.. hmm..

Pretty cool thing, it'll probably be another year or two before I actually start using it though...

I have been watching these directly on YouTube through the sub box, and checking this thread when ever a new post is added.

I only just realized they are the same thing...
I feel stupid! :D

Anyway great tutorials!
Thanks

EDIT: just to clarify - I did not watch the videos in this post! Jeez, I'm not THAT stupid, at least not quite.

Well if it is, it wasn't me that botted it :/

I did pay around £15 to a Facebook group to post about each of the videos. But, I was only expecting like. 2 or 3k views for each one. Not like.. 15k :/
