IE input background image issue

IE strikes AGAIN! Just when I thought I was 100% done with the revamp of New Millennium, I noticed an UI issue in IE. I’m surprised I didn’t notice this before. It shouldn’t be anything new. I did some google research but didn’t find anyone mentioning it either. Applying background image to input tags should… Continue reading IE input background image issue

jQuery and Tamper data rock

I’ve been working on a UI design at work and some of the build in components have border=”1″ on their generated table code. To achieve a consistent look, I always want border=”0″ on the table so I can control the table border with CSS. There is no way as far as I know you can… Continue reading jQuery and Tamper data rock

my computer at work

I was contracted out as a consultant for a new company three weeks ago. They had a computer ready for me but it was not set up correctly so I could actually do work. I finally got my new one last Thursday. I guess they made it a worthwhile wait. It’s pretty decent ya think?

perhaps javascript is not ready for xhtml 1.1 yet

While making a new layout for new millennium, I used a jquery plugin for a certain visual effect. I coded my source to be validated against Xhtml 1.1. If you validate your source recently, you’d notice that W3C now gives you a warning if your xhtml is not served with application/xhtml+xml mimeType. As perfectionist, I… Continue reading perhaps javascript is not ready for xhtml 1.1 yet
