Coda

There have been lots of hubbub going on around Panic‘s new web development tool, Coda, and with good reason. Coda’s approach to web development quickly divides folks into two camps: those that love it and those that don’t. Of course, now that I’ve said that I’m going to try to place myself in the middle.…

The Modern Web Development Process

Create a nice web standards compliant web site, testing in Firefox and Safari. Test the site in IE6 and create IE6 specific hacks for things that need tweaking. Test the site in IE7 and create IE7 specific hacks for things that need tweaking. Whenever you add new features to the site, try to remember to…

Too Many Browsers (Again)

Continuing on my browser thread from last week, another browser trend is the recent growth of browsers that need to be supported/tested on. Since IE 4 or so, the number of browsers out there seemed to be shrinking. It was easier when you just had to make sure things looked right in IE 6, Firefox…

Passwords

Every so often, a Firefox plugin looks so nice and shiny to me that I consider switching from Camino to Firefox as my primary browser. For the last couple of weeks, the password hashing plugins have had my eye: Password Hasher SecurePassword Generator Magic Password Generator PasswordMaker Password Composer And the one I’d actually be…

Font Size Switcher

I get a fair number of e-mails asking if the Font Size switcher in my sidebar is a WordPress plugin or where to find it. I built it based on this tutorial at A List Apart. Sorry Safari users, Safari chokes hard on this technique. I recommend using a better browser. I also added this…

IE 7 Support

With IE 7 out, I’ll be taking a little time (another week or so) to make sure the new versions of Tasks Pro™ and Tasks don’t have any issues there before the upcoming releases. A slight delay, but probably a worthwhile one. I haven’t seen any isues yet in my light testing, but that doesn’t…

(Pixel) Size Matters

Over the last few years, I’ve gotten an increasing number of complaints about the default font size on this web site and in my other web based software1. When I upgraded to my 30″ display, I finally realized why. Pixels have been getting smaller and smaller over the years. For comparison: 22″ Cinema Display: 1600…
