than a million miles, escorting convoys and steering trucks through
the desert. But on Friday, it was one final mile through this quaint
New England town that brought tears to the 1058th National Guard unit
— and cheers to several thousand family and friends who lined

03/15/2003 03:00 AMEgged on by Christopher at Back to Iraq 2.0, I went to the Onion's
January 2001 issue and found: Bush also promised to bring an end to
the severe war drought that plagued the nation under Clinton, assuring
citizens that the U.S. will engage in at least one Gulf War-level
armed conflict in the next four years... On the economic side, Bush
vowed to bring back economic stagnation by implementing substantial
tax cuts, which would lead to a recession, which would necessitate a
tax hike, which would lead to a drop in consumer spending, which would
lead to layoffs, which would deepen the recession even further...
House Majority Leader Dennis Hastert (R-IL) told reporters. "Under
Bush, we can all look forward to military aggression, deregulation of
dangerous, greedy industries, and the defunding of vital domestic
social-service programs upon which millions depend. Mercifully, we can
now say goodbye to the awful nightmare that was Clinton's America....
How did they know?...

Onion Article.
Many web users were trapped without service Monday, when a
large section of the Internet collapsed under the weight of the
millions of baby pictures posted online. "Some personal web pages
contain literally hundreds of adorable infant photos," MCI senior
vice-president Vinton Cerffe said. "Add to that the number of precious
pumpkins on photo-sharing sites like Ophoto.com, and anyone can see it
was a recipe for disaster. The Internet simply was not designed to
support so much parental pride."
I'm not sure why he sent it to ME, though. Why, Rob? Why?
(There actually must be some truth to this article. The hard disk I
keep my baby pictures on crapped out this weekend, and it's less than
a year old.)

A Web Site Is Like An Onion...
02/01/2005 09:07 PM...it's all about layers.
A List Apart has put out
two great new articles on the use of JavaScript in web design.
In 'JavaScript
Triggers', Peter-Paul Koch (of Quirksmode fame) makes an
interesting point: There are 3 big layers to an HTML page: structure,
appearance, and behavior. CSS is great because it separates structure
from appearance, but how can we use JavaScript without mixing the
behavior with the structure?
We should separate behavior and structure by discarding inline
event handlers like onmouseover="switchImages('fearful',6,false)".
Instead, as with CSS, we should use triggers to tell the script where
to deploy the behavior.
Great stuff. He advocates the use of your own custom attributes on
elements to drive script behavior (eg >input type="text"
required="true" inputtype="phonenumber" <). This is one of my
favorite tricks as well, but the major drawback is that your page will
no longer validate, because there's no such attribute as 'required' or
'inputtype' in the HTML spec.
My solution to that problem has always been 'ignore the errors',
but J. David Eisenberg wrote a companion
article on how to create your own custom DTD that includes the new
fields. This seems a bit like overkill, but if you have a standard
javascript library that makes use of a fixed set of custom attributes,
and you use it over and over, a custom DTD could come in handy when
you're making sure your site still validates.
A List Apart is a very low-volume site, but whenever they publish
something, it's always well worth the read.
