Nifty features

I've managed to do two new nifty things on the site. The first is in the most visited section, games. Now for flash games there is a slider that lets you adjust the size of the game on the fly. This idea had been trickling through the back of my head for a long time and I'm happy to finally see it realized. I ended up writing my own JavaScript slider control for it. There are a few out there, but they all seemed to be 30-40kb, whereas mine is under 3kb of js and a dash of CSS and HTML. I'm going to write up an article about that one real soon.

I've also done another more minor change which you can see at /ee. I spied another website out there doing this, and once I found out you could have mod_autoindex output HTML tables, I had to wrap them in a style sheet!
