I’m just starting out with JQUERY/JQUERY UI and have been meaning to start using them for a long time but haven’t had the time to really have a play. I’ve finally found some time and from using the documentation on the JQUERY site i managed to come up with a font slider which increases/decreases the font size of all the text within my wrapper div(could be any element including the body if you wanted) 1em at a time. Here is the code:
The XHTML
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="fontslider" class="font-slider" style="margin:10px;">
<div class="ui-slider-handle"></div>
</div>
</div>
The CSS
body {
font-size:small;
}
.font-slider {
width: 200px;
height: 23px;
position: relative;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center center;
}
.ui-slider-handle {
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
height: 23px;
width: 12px;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
background-image: url(slider-handle.gif);
}
.ui-slider-handleactive { border: 1px dotted black; }
.ui-slider-disabled .ui-slider-handle {
opacity: 0.5;
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
}
.ui-slider-range {
position: absolute;
background: #50A029;
opacity: 0.3;
filter: alpha(opacity=30);
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.font-slider {background-image: url(slider-bg-1.png); }
The JS
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#fontslider").slider({
min: '1',
max: '10',
startValue: 1,
steps: 10,
change: function(e, ui){
$("#wrapper").css("font-size", + ui.value +"em");
}
});
});
you will need to make sure you include the the jquery library, ui.core.js and ui.slider.js files from
I have also created an example * Package *.
Will hopefully get a demo up online soon as well.

I was looking around in the Google tools earlier and found the beta version of Google translator, it still has all the functionality you would expect from a translation tool however at closer inspection I came across the translation tool tips.
To see the tool tips you first need to translate a website to a foreign language that is currently supported by Google Translator.
In the screen shots below i translated the Microsoft website from English to Finnish.
This is the translated version showing the tool-tip and as you can see Google translator has translated the phrase exactly.
