Save them all! (firefox only) MutationObserver(function(event) { $(event[0].addedNodes[0]).mouseover(); }).observe($('body')[0], {childList: true}); $('img').mouseover();

Much cooler than mine. I just ran $('img').each(function() { $(this).mouseover(); }); every few seconds. Something cool should have happened.

I just did:

    setInterval( function() {$('img').trigger('mouseenter'); }, 100 );
(probably burning up my cpu)

I've said it before, but: What's the deal with 404 pages? If the content has moved, I should get a 30x redirect. If the server has a way of guessing what I wanted, I should get 300 Multiple Choices. If the server knows that what I'm looking for isn't anywhere, I should get 410 Gone. 404 is supposed to mean that the server has no idea what I'm looking for, no idea how to find it, no idea where to look. In that case, I…

I use Cloudflare's 404 pages feature, which incorporates possible intended destinations. I haven't had a chance to make a custom 404 page (e.g. with Google's 404 widget), so this gets the job done.

e.g. http://www.philipithomas.com/does_not_exist

Is that page customizable in any way? My first impression is that it looks like a parked domain landing page, which I instinctively ignore and close immediately.

I just resized my browser to be about an inch wide, and then they all fall in a straight line past the cursor.

I guess you could call that a workaround :-)
