Tom, you cannot associate tap with small screen that way: Not only do there are more and more devices with wide tappable screens, but screens can have very different pixel dephts, so two screens with the same pixel dimensions can have dramatically different sizes. Most browsers will interpret

Hi Wesley, I'm not sure what you want, it really depends on the kind of reflection, and the movement of the elements, but if you want a simple reflection simulation (like reflecting 2d images, not 3d, on an horizontal plane, for instance) you have the negative scale transform to invert the image

Paul, if you intend to load a javascript function on select, I gess you should use javascript to colapse the menus. You can give a class to the menus that by default keeps them open, and another class to define them as closed. Then you can close the menus by changing the classes via js, on load
