Popout Vertical Menu for WordPress website using HTML and CSS

I designed a popout vertical menu for wordpress for a previous employer but they never liked it or used it.  So here it is for everyone to use!  It only uses CSS and HTML so it can be used anywhere!

To see it in action, select all of the code, cut and paste it into notepad.  Save it as "vertmenu.html" then find the file that you just saved and double click on it.

Here is a picture of it in action:

 

<style type="text/css">
#navigation {width: 180px; font-size: 1em; Font-family: arial;}
#navigation ul { margin: 0px;  padding: 0px; }
ul.top-level { background: #CCf; }
#navigation li { list-style: none; }
  ul.top-level li {
    border-bottom: #fff solid;
    border-top: #fff solid;
    border-width: 1px; 
  }
#navigation a {
  color: #000;
  cursor: pointer;
  display:block;
  height:25px;
  line-height: 25px;
  text-indent: 10px;     
  text-decoration:none;
  width:100%; 
  }
#navigation a:hover{ text-decoration:underline; }
#navigation li:hover {background: #DDF; position:top;  }
  ul.sub-level { display:none; width:600px; height:220px; }
  li:hover .sub-level {
    background: #EEF;
    border: #fff solid;
    border-width: 1px;
    display: block;
    position: absolute;
    left: 180px;
    top: 5px;   }
  ul.sub-level li {
    border: none;
    float:left;
    width:180px;
    }
  
#navigation .sub-level { background: #EEF; }
 /*IE RESET HELPER*/
 li:hover .sub-level .sub-level { display:none; }
 .sub-level li:hover .sub-level { display:block; }     

 
</style>

New floor for a friend

Recently I installed a new floor for a friend.  It is the interlocking wood floor like what I did in my living room.  These came with a water seal and pad built in so installation was easier.  Here are some pictures of the resulting floor.

Samsung 42 inch Plasma TV Repair Model P4231

I picked up a 42 inch plasma TV for free a few months ago.  The owner was getting rid of it because it shuts off after a few hours.  It eventually got so bad that it acted up after just one hour.  So it was time to take it apart and fix it. Here it is with the covers removed.  You have to remove the base to remove the back cover.

Here is the power supply board. You will need to remove it for servicing. First check for any blown capacitors. Then turn it over and re-solder any connections that go to anything mounted on the heat sink or that looks at all worn.

 If all else fails add a cooling fan.  Mine has now been running over 4 hours after re-soldering the connections.
