Actually, wouldn't it only be Mr Burns's. Mr Burns' is incorrect since it is a proper noun, even if it ends in an "s" you still put an "'s" on the end to make it possessive.
heh, i forget about opera and safari sometimes, but i don't ever even consider netscape a browser. by both browsers i meant IE and mozilla. I do check in safari, rarely in opera, but when i do it always seems fine. i guess that if you can get it to look good with xhtml and css in both IE and mozilla it just seems to follow suit in safari
the best way is practice. make a site design in photoshop and then work on turning it into xhtml and css. then do it again. and again and again and again. there are a lot of tricks to work out to make it work in all the different flavor browsers but all it takes is some learning. working with what is out there and making it work instead of just bitching is the difference that can make you into a professional
but the standards are required to make the web usable to disabled people. Plus with current support you can hack up a page that look basically the same in both browsers, has wonderfully semantic descriptive markup, and doesn't look to bad to boot. Good web developers just have to be smart. Yes it is challenging to work in a field where your clients use a totally non standard set of equipment. So for some clients you code in HTML 4 with tables, most you try to use XHTML with CSS. Most web developers don't make any money, the good ones get rich!
Zvon is the greatest resource for CSS and XHTML. These two links are all I ever need.
CSS click "Properties - all" XHTML lets you know which tags can be parents or children of each other and which attributes are valid in the Strict, Transitional, or Frameset DTDs.
Umm they aren't even using them on individual products yet, this is just on the pallette of the product in the backroom for inventory purposes. Though i think they plan to use them on individual products in the future.
I would say that (much like you decided to take a hit on your karma by posting your opinion) Mozilla is simply supporting their own right to allow others to develop extensions on their open platform. Mozilla didn't develop these two extensions which I admit may aid in surfing for porn but come on, let some people surf for porn. There are numerous extensions to Mozilla's browsers and most of them are quite useful. Saying that because a browser lets you flip through a collection of numerically ordered images is supported pornography is like saying all browsers should be banned because they let you type in URLs and the URLs may point to pages that contain pornography. There are image collections out there that are definitly worth flipping
through that do no contain porno.
ummm, cause you dont always know what you will feel like playing, so you load it it up with a ton of stuff and its always at your disposal. i dont have an iPod anyway, i spent my 100 bucks on a 120 GB external hard drive that i keep in my laptop bag and lug it work and back home. i'm a geek when do i ever need music when i'm not by my computer???
The fact that it is a cultural norm is the problem. No I'm not gay and I don't get all frothy over people's use of the word in the above context. But the point is that the use of gay to mean "bad" or "dumb" or "stupid" is continuing the negative stereotyping of gay people. Whether you mean anything bad towards gay people or not by describing something as gay, you are continuing to propagate the idea of gay being bad.
You should never use the excuse of cultural normality to justify your actions. Think for yourself.
For a while, I would be driving in my car and here this little interference like beepy-beepy-beep-beep-beepy sound come from my stereo. Then the other day I had my cell phone sitting by a CD player in my room and the same noise came out of the CD player. I had no idea it was connected to my cell phone until I did some testing by leaving my phone near the CD player in my room fairly often when it was on. The noise only returns when the cell phone is near the stereo. It doesn't ring or anything, it just seems to randomly interfere. Anyone know what could be going on? My cell phone is a Nokia 6190 and I'm on the T-Mobil network.
A bad album (one that could be listened to out of order) would be like one of those bad books (chicken soup for the soul anyone?) that can be read in any order. eh?
i hooked up with my fiance through the onion personals, wonderful for finding other jaded peoples, and you move outside of the tech circle. i'd highly recommend the onion.
I work for a 9 person company. The CEO, head of development and lead programmer are brothers and our account executive is the bosses's wife. The brother's little sister works for us part time too, so fmaily outnumbers the rest of us here. As a company we work out very well, but I'm sure it won't work for every company. I think the question of "is it okay to mix business and family" isn't really a valid question because it totally depends on how each of the people behaves in a work environment. While family is a logical grouping of people is doesn't identify any behavioral characteristics, which are a stronger way of determining who can work together.
I pulled up EditCSS [my favorite mozilla plug-in if you haven't tried it] and tried adding clear:all and then clear:both, neither seemed to stop a text size increase from moving the navigation over the text. Perhaps its because the page has some absolutely positioned elements. Thanks for your suggestions though, hopefully I'll get around to fixing it up some day soon.
which mozilla are you using? i have firefox and it looks just fine to me unless I increase my text size to way too big. Then it covers part of the page. I know, the text doesnt resize well and that kills some accessability, but like I said before we're way too busy with quality client work to redo our homepage and we're only 9 people. Another of our sites, started by one of our employees the dj list gets ripped off all the time too.
this happens to us pretty frequently

I work for www.cloudspace.com and every once in a while we notice something odd in our server logs and find that some has ripped off our navigation and left some of our graphics in it, or used our stylesheet. We've messed a few people's site look up a little by changing our stylesheet and had fun with it.
Recently we found this site from a french company: http://www.studio-lol.com/ It comes up as the 8th result in a google search of our company name "cloudspace". They left the word "cloudspace" as the alt tag to their logo when they ripped off our navigation. We don't really mind too much when people copy our designs around here. Too bad they choose our own website with a lot of outdated code. It is coded in tables, but with being so busy lately we havent had time to update it much in the last couple years. We do everything we can in divs with css now. We just kind take it as a compliment when someone copies our designs.

Well it is not a stylesheet but this will crash IE nicely. Anywhere in your page include this tag

<input type='crash'
Seems kind of ironic.
