Remove Search Box Buttons in WebKit
I love all of the (relatively) new HTML5 INPUT element types. If you aren't using them...what the hell is wrong with you?! please do. New types like search and email make these form fields infinitely more usable on mobile. What I don't necessarily like is how WebKit adds the circular x button to the right of search boxes; they add a design element that was clashing with the site look and feel. After a quick search, I figured out how to remove it:
input[type='search']::-webkit-search-decoration,
input[type='search']::-webkit-search-cancel-button,
input[type='search']::-webkit-search-results-button,
input[type='search']::-webkit-search-results-decoration {
display: none;
}
No more unwanted icon in my design. Big thanks to Chris Coyier for this tip!

![Regular Expressions for the Rest of Us]()
Sooner or later you'll run across a regular expression. With their cryptic syntax, confusing documentation and massive learning curve, most developers settle for copying and pasting them from StackOverflow and hoping they work. But what if you could decode regular expressions and harness their power? In...
![HTML5 download Attribute]()
I tend to get caught up on the JavaScript side of the HTML5 revolution, and can you blame me? HTML5 gives us awesome "big" stuff like WebSockets, Web Workers, History, Storage and little helpers like the Element classList collection. There are, however, smaller features in...
![MooTools Text Flipping]()
There are lots and lots of useless but fun JavaScript techniques out there. This is another one of them.
One popular April Fools joke I quickly got tired of was websites transforming their text upside down. I found a jQuery Plugin by Paul...
I have been searching this for ages. But please note that in some cases the default style does help user.
