• 10.2.06 Firefox and Web Design: Top 5 Extensions posted in Web Design

  This is more or less a “Top Firefox Addons” post, but pretty much our entire selection of Firefox extensions are geared towards web design/development, so that’s what I’m calling it. I couldn’t really do what I do without Firefox, or at least it would be considerably more difficult. While I have much […]

• 9.10.06 A legal precedent for standards and semantics posted in Web Design

  Finally something interesting filtered through to me today… Target corp. got sued by groups representing the visually-impaired community and their right to sue was upheld by the court. I’ve been whining for quite a while about the need for accessibility on the web. Even if every site isn’t built around screen readers, […]

  Thanks to the bug reports of a couple of users, I found some mistakes in the PHP for the AJAX contact form. I had to remove Bad Behavior from the distribution as it was causing problems with PHP5. If you use the distro, you might want to run Bad Behavior externally to […]

• 8.10.06 Javascript and SEO: The new school. posted in Web Design

  DOM Scripting is changing the old rules of SEO. I was raised to believe that javascript hindered a sites readability by search engine spiders and should be avoided at all costs. Of course, I come from an era where images were sliced apart and held together with tables, and rollovers were created […]

• 8.6.06 Goodbye to livesearch posted in Asides

  It was fun while it lasted, but I’ve bid farewell to livesearch on the Circle Six Blog. It was just extra javascript that really didn’t serve a purpose. Plus it made it hard to trap what people were searching for to use for my own nefarious purposes. I was happy just […]

• 8.5.06 How’d I miss that? posted in Asides

  Somehow I missed this post 3 months ago on Shaun Inman’s blog. It’s an update to his original article on using a dash of javascript to clear absolutely positioned divs. It’s a step towards bringing standards based design into the realm of table-like control with the flexibility that we’ve come to love […]

• 8.5.06 Official Contact Form (Beta) Release posted in Geekery

  I’ve gotten enough requests for the contact form code that I’ve finally gotten around to cleaning up the code a little bit. I guess I figured that after I finally got CRE Loaded to play nice, I could afford an hour to make things look prettier for all the folks that were trying […]

  My crowning acheivement for the day. Something none of you can see, but it makes my blog so much cooler. I can now edit the tags for each post inline when viewing my blog while logged in as admin (AJAX at work!). It wasn’t working and there wasn’t a solution on […]
