I significantly improved the codebase in this last release of surebert adding some fixes for safari now that I have a mac, in addition to a CSS selector compliant updated sb.$, an extended sb.element, a few new array pr…
There's a reason why I've spent the last few days with a murderous glare in my eye and thoughts of getting all Voldemort on a few Open Source programmers (and the rest of the software industry for good measure while I'm…
This is crazy. I revamped the old email based posting system because e:jim and e:jenks 's iphones cannot do file uploads in mobile safari. This just blows my mind, it reminds me of my sidekick 1. I used to have the emai…
WEDJE A nice way to load offsite content without slowing initial page rendering. And the acronym is kinda cool
But for those that care, surebert 3.0 is here. I revamped the docs and the changelog. This version had many significant changes to the main file so that it switched versions to 3.0. For those of you that are javascripty…
If someone hasn't yet created voodoo dolls you can buy that represent programmers whose code you inherit, then someone really should. I bet they would be a best seller. No, I haven't had a difficult day at work. Why wou…
Apparently they're having another BarCamp in Rochester this year. http://barcamp.org/BarCampRochester2 I didn't make it last year for whatever stupid reason I can't remember so I really want to go this year. One of the …
When I finish my long "stop estrip from crashing on Safari" journey, I'll probably write a long post about it with all the stupid details. But for the time being, I'll probably use this journal to keep track of how far …
- First off, an addendum. Yesterday was easter, and as I didn't have anything better to do (insert Chinese restaurant joke here) I took advantage of the lull in traffic at the Elmwood & Marion intersection to snap a few…
I never thought of targeting this market. I should write an OOP javascript and AJAX book for teens. But why the pretty-boy? Maybe there are more girls programming nowadays but I have to say I never see them in the compu…
I finally bit the bullet and paid a substantial sum of money to join the elite club of A D C (A pple D eveloper C onnection), because if I want to get a machine in the near future, I can either choose to get the hardwar…
I had a much better day programming today. At work I met with the Human Resources guy who I am working for and we were able to clarify a lot of questions I had about the employee evaluation system. I still had to wait t…
I had this idea which will make stuff easier in the future but it requires some retrofitting. I hope my heater is at home when I get there.
Email Don't bother sending any more email to my old address. The only way to email me is throught the little envelope under my userpic, when you are logged in or if I gave you my address. If I email anyone with my new a…
I spent the afternoon doing what I like to refer to as duct tape programming. I was given the task of taking a web interface that is created by a propriatary commercial server side application, whose code I do not have …
I was working on an adjustable web meaurement tool for a little bit today. I have decided to move onto flash now that javascript is boring me again. First drag the ends of the red line to what you consider one unit, of …
I updated the surebertCom library to add lots of new array functions and two new string ones. strings: ltrim, rtrim, trim arrays: drop, random, unique, combine, inject, substrCount, strstr, stristr, walk I still haven't…
This week, I have recoded my years worth of javascript functions and objects into a beautiful, name spaced, inter-dependent, object oriented library that will make new stuff so much more exciting to program and extend. …
Wow this is another boring video, I wish I had narrated a little more. Video blogging is not as fun for my as picture blogging. i am sure I will get better at it. Expect something from thrusday in the square.
Here is a good example I wrote of javascript prototypes that extend other objects. e:paul,4369 was part one and both were in reference to e:zobar,59 [box]<html> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> /*create a sound ob…
Believe it or not, I love javascript so much. SIDENOTE ON SUREBERT If you want to use surebert http://www.surebert.com for any AJAX stuff at artvoice, feel free. It allows you to easily post data to any page. Here is th…
