Couple-Three-Line Book Review:
"Designing with Web Standards" by
Jeffrey Zeldman
12/11/2003 04:52 PM
I spent the weekend with Zeldman's can't-put-it-down-despite-it-being-a-book-on-CSS "Designing with Web Standards". Now I've not been in the web design game since I gave up my little 1993 web design company (Hyper, Ink. was it's name) to help build an ISP, but this book really took me back. It was like learning HTML (and all that comes with it these days) all over again, and just as enjoyable as the first time. There was so much I put into immediate use in a new site I've been building.

Don't be mislead by the cover. The book is about as far from the dry read of an XHTML spec as you can get. Zeldman's thoroughly engrossing in his witty, lyrical, easy style. There are thrills the likes of inline <li>s (further exposition on A List Apart). CSS chills abound, as one might well expect in dealing with IE, Moz, Safari, and Opera: voice-family: "\"}\""; /* trick WinIE4/5 into thinking the rule is over */. You'll find adventure in the author's recounting of how things got this messy in the first place--"The Heartbreak of EMs" alone will leave you cold.

"Designing with Web Standards" is "The Pragmatic Programmer" for web design--at least from my humble vi-using, perl-hacking, designer-wanna-be p.o.v.

Safari Response: zeldman.com


Safari Response: zeldman.com 03/11/2003 09:44 AM

Zeldman writes about a couple of Safari issues. The first issue is Safari's limited support for the titl e attribute. We're going to dump our implementation in the status bar and just use a tooltip-style implementation instead (and yes, we'll pick up support for acronym and abbr at the same time). This was sort of an intermediate hack to just get something out there for title attributes on links only. We'll dump it once we do the full TITLE support in a tooltip.

Second, the question about .ico files. The .ico file format actually contains multiple bitmaps, which can have varying color depths and sizes. The engine rendering an .ico has to make a decision regarding which ico to use, and this can get pretty complex, e.g., do you take the 32x32 in 16-bit color, or the 16x16 in 8-bit color? The former results in a scale, but the latter is a lower color depth. A naive decoder will simply use the first .bmp encountered inside the .ico, even if it's an inferior color depth.

Safari just uses the Cocoa NSImage object for displaying .icos, and I suspect that the decoder may be pretty naive about its selection of the appropriate bitmap. In my opinion, color depth should be highest priority. In other words you should try to find a .bmp with matching color depth for your screen first, and then prioritize 16x16 above other sizes only after the best color depth has been determined).

I will look into this issue in Cocoa and see what we're doing right now.

Congratulations to Steven Garrity and the entire team at silverorange for their work on the newly redesigned mozilla.org. I think it's a big step forward from the last one, which always felt a little half-finished to me. But then again, that design was a big step forward from the old-old one. The one GUI nit-picky issue I posted to the feedback topic forums was about the click-targets of the buttons in the nav bar. If you hover over the right sides of the buttons, they become unclickable, however the hover still changes the colour of the button. Here's a screenshot: Full click-targets are better. But as Steven notes, they're still updating and tweaking things. The other issue I have is with the Mozilla Blogs column on the main page. I haven't read much about Planet Mozilla, but I question why blog posts from it's feed are listed on the front page of mozilla.org. Since some of the Mozilla blogs listed in the feed don't always talk about Mozilla on their blogs, I'm not sure how much value it adds to have links to a dork's post about his new iMac on the front page. I still think it's a valuable resource, but for the front page, it would probably be more useful if it had an editor, like the links featured in The Mozilla Blogging Project on mozillaZine.org.

Adventures in redesigns


Adventures in redesigns 03/13/2003 10:22 AM

So after keeping the same design around for a little over 2 years, I decided it was time for a change. My goals with this design was to accommodate more stuff, but still aim for simple and clean (and also, I was looking for a reason to use Travis Beckham's insanely cool patterns -- background images have been dorky for so long they're cool again).

A couple months ago, I noticed I was writing less than usual, hiking less often, and not taking all that many photos. To force myself to spend more time on those things I decided the next design would reduce the importance of daily blogging, and give other features more prominence. The features area to the right is the same size as the blog area for that reason, and while at the moment there is nothing new there, I'm aiming to either write an article, post a photo essay, interview someone, or do some other feature-sized thing once a week from here on out. I also wanted to get myself back into taking daily photos. I did it through most of the year 2000, and I learned a lot by forcing myself to just do it everyday.

The redesign is only on the front page and the weblog archives for now (which are now Movable Type powered, to boot), but eventually everything else will get converted over, and I might add more stuff to the right side, but I'll try not to make it too portal-like. The whole design is liquid, and I used some CSS tricks to have the photos on the right fill their areas -- the smaller or wider your browser, the less or more you see of the images. The daily photo image is the actual full size photo, just positioned centered as a background (yes, a pointless waste of bandwidth, but easier than thumbnaling and clicking on it to see the full sized version is faster).

While this site isn't quite validating as xhtml strict (the stock Flash code is causing the errors), and I did have to use a table to get a consistent layout of the two sides (floated columns refused to work), I've found a really odd bug. If you're viewing this site in a newer version of Mozilla or mac/IE, you should see a nifty Flash map of the US/World (coded brilliantly by Bryan) showing the places I've been recently, where I am currently, and where I'm heading soon. If you're using Opera, Safari, or win/IE, you won't see anything at all. The map works by itself on a page, and inside a table in all browsers, but for some reason, half the browsers I point at this page don't like it and ignore it. I suppose I'll figure out the problem eventually. If anyone is confused, here is what is supposed to look like (screensh ot 1, screensh ot 2)

One thing's certain: after the past couple days of work on this, I could really use some Extreme, Totally-In-Your-Face, Milk Products™

On RSS feeds and upcoming redesigns... 04/12/2005 06:26 AM

This is more of an update than a post and won't be of enormous interest to an awful lot of you, I'm sure. Basically for those of you reading this site via an RSS newsreader, I've decided to remove the splicing of photographs from my Flickr photostream. This is for a number of reasons, but mainly because I've started to feel a bit uncomfortable about the enormous shifts in tone between the two feeds and how they inter-relate to one another. If you enjoy seeing pictures from my photostream however, you can still subscribe to a dedicated feed.

For those of you who are not familiar with the plasticbag.org feed, or with newsreaders in general, then I can recommend the Wikipedia article on RSS and newsreaders and if you're using a Mac, then NetNewsWire remains the client of choice.

This little job is just the first of a large number of changes that you should be seeing around the site over the next few weeks as I work to redesign the place from the ground-up. I can warn you now that many of you are not going to like what I'm going to do with the place. I'm taking it very stark and simple. But I'm finding it quite exciting. If you're of the speculative sort, then why not have a look at my page on a design history of plasticbag.org and see if you can spot the trends.

SearchDay adds: "Coming hard on the heels of last week's purchase of AlltheWeb by Overture, it's fair to ask whether this change has been prompted by AlltheWeb's new owner, to make the search engine more Google-like. Absolutely not, says Tim Mayer, FAST's vice president web search." AllTheWeb has a page on their recent changes....
