Writing JavaScript specific CSS

webguy — Fri, 01 May 2009 14:53:55 +0000

I wrote an article recently recommending Using jQuery to write JavaScript specific CSS, I’ve since change my mind on this approach. The approach I’ve moved to is similar, but doesn’t rely on a framework and allows more flexibility like moving all of my JavaScript includes to the bottom of the page for better performance. In [...]

Enable JavaScript specific CSS with one line of jQuery

webguy — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 02:27:21 +0000

jQuery is by far my favorite JavaScript framework in terms of simplicity and just pure DOM power. I picked up a little trick at a conference quite a few months back and improved upon it and thought it could benefit anyone that believes in the mantra of progressive enhancement. Here’s the line of [...]

Pandora cutting out using naviplay bluetooth stereo dock with iPhone

webguy — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 20:28:22 +0000

I have an iPhone 3G and recently bought a Naviplay bluetooth transmitter off of Amazon for $6 so that I could stream to my Sony S805 bluetooth headphones, since the bozo’s at Apple decided to not make the bluetooth stereo protocol available directly from the iPHone. Yes both of these work with the iPhone, [...]

Setting your tabindex on your html forms automatically with jQuery

webguy — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 20:59:41 +0000

The tabindex is absolutely necessary for controlling the tab order through a really long form, from a usability and accessibility standpoint. This is probably not the preferred way to do this, you should be setting the tabindex attribute on all of your input elements in your html. Now if you work with lazy [...]

Upgrading Wordpress with the iPhone

webguy — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 02:12:47 +0000

I’ve been using InstantUpgrade for over a year now to keep my blog on the latest version of Wordpress without fail. Every upgrade has been smooth and successful and has gone off without a hitch. This evening I got really brave and used my iPhone to upgrade to Wordpress 2.7, again everything went [...]

inSpot.org a public service or a bad joke

webguy — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 03:23:04 +0000

Catching up on my buddies tweets, I ran into an interesting one..”Web 2.0 hookups gone bad,” with a link to http://inspot.org/gateway.aspx. Just when you think everything has hit the web, around the corner comes something new and bold and if your a little twisted, a lot of fun. The gist of the site [...]

Prevent double submit with jQuery

webguy — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 00:58:44 +0000

Another great “little” solution with jQuery. Needed a simple way to protect all the forms on our site from being double submitted. There was an attempted solution in place on our app, that added an onsubmit to every form with a function above it called ignoreDoubleSubmit that tried to trap the event of [...]
