highlight images with missing width/height params
A bit of jQuery I used recently for debbugging, to highlight all img-tags with missing width/height params:
$('img:not([width]),img:not([height])').css({border: '3px dashed red'})
Here's a plain js version that works without jQuery: document.styleSheets[0].insertRule('img:not([width]),img:not([height]){border: 3px dashed red}')
123 (css animation) - combined my old fave, border-style dashed, w/ border-radius 50%. Only works in Chrome, it seems: http://milov.nl/e/123

js screen.width/height on secondary displays
Just noticed a curious Javascript bug in Internet Explorer 9: the screen.width/height properties always return the dimensions of the main monitor, even when the active browser window is on the second monitor.
Upon further testing, it turns out Safari for Windows has the same problem. Chrome, Opera and Firefox all report the correct dimensions, however.
