Subject: Re: [WSG] jQuery Mobile for Mobile site

jQuery Mobile is a nice, if slightly unpolished due to it's very recent
release, framework - but you're right - it's primarily intended for apps and
I think it works much better if an app is what you have in mind.

If you're looking to do something not quite app-like, then I'd point you in
the direction of Yiibu (specifically this page http://yiibu.com/about/site/)
as an example of what you can do. They're experimenting with a mobile first
approach, combined with elements of responsive web design and feature
detection in order to provide their content to as many mobile devices as
possible. If you dig around their site a little bit, you'll see related
articles that are well worth the read.

I would also recommend the Mobile Web Yahoo group which is quite active and
a great resource for mobile web development.
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mobile-web/

Hope that helps!

Take care,
Tim

 towards Apps.

Yes. Thank you Felix! best viewed works much better. And then throw in
the fact that IE 6 was first release around 2001 and ask them if they
even care if they can see a site in a best viewed fashion. I am
thinking they are not. ;-) j/k.
All's good.

I know of some work places still useing Windows 2000.
Or rather, I have read that they have rolled back to it, after some 
applications and the like wouldn't run on XP, which means that IE6 is
about 
the only thing they can run on Windows2000, unless they use Firefox, or
some 
other browser.
As I don't think IE7 and 8 run on Win2K.
I also know that a lot of workplaces are swiching to Vista though, so
with 
all these different versions of Windows floating around the place, and
with 
MS still not dropping official support for IE6 untill 2014 it is rather 
anoying.
All that said, I don't test in IE6 anymore and have not done so for a
year 
or so.

Re: [WSG] disallow IE6 to load the main style sheet

2010-12-22 Thread Dionisis Karampinis
Totally agree with you! Letting users know about the security flaws of IE6+7 is 
much more effective than the usual passive messages (especially on e-shops)!! 
Providing the content styled or not is a tough question, but i believe it all 
comes to the site's audience and purpose..for instance for a news website i 
would spend more time coding a stylesheet for mobile devices rather than IE6... 
unfortunatelly i still have to provide for IE7+8..but thats another story.. 
Whatever the case, trying to provide the information in the best way, just 
markup or styles that dont display some elements etc., i think should be the 
optimal web practise..

Regards, dio.

 One of my clients did an implementation on his site, year ago the usage of

[WSG] Flight Centre looking for talented front end developers to start immediately

2010-12-22 Thread Ryan Blunden
Hi everyone,

Flight Centre are currently seeking full-time front end developers to start
immediately. This is an excellent opportunity for the right applicants to
get experience in a global ecommerce environment and enterprise content
management systems. Salary will be negotiated based on skills and experience
and you must be able to work full-time at our Brisbane head office.

Flight Centre is a global company that encompasses many other travel brands
(Escape Travel, Travel Associates, Cruiseabout and others) and we are in the
process of rolling out our new travel product architecture across our
national and international sites. There will be a mix of both maintenance
work for existing sites and project work building new sites.

We’re after people who have:

   - At least 3 years commercial web development experience,
   - solid JavaScript skills (design patterns, Crockford, the good parts
   etc),
   - experience with jQuery and jQuery UI,
   - a passion for front end development best practices (web standards,
   progressive enhancement, accessibility),
   - a great attitude, and enjoy working in an open plan team environment,
   - a desire to see continuous innovation and improvement in the work they
   do.

Experience with functional testing platforms, unit testing and other
JavaScript frameworks (e.g. ExtJS) would be an advantage.

We have a great and talented bunch of web developers and the working
environment at Flight Centre really is fantastic!

If you want to find out more or would like to submit your resume for
consideration, please email me at ryan.blun...@flightcentre.com.au. Ensure
your resume highlights your front end development experience (e.g.
JavaScript you have written) and has a list of sites you’ve worked on
recently.

Hope you all have a great festive season!

Cheers,
Ryan

Re: [WSG] jQuery Mobile for Mobile site

2010-12-22 Thread tee
Tim,

Thank you for the feedback and links.

I did some more digging and setup a simple site using the framework, and I can 
confirm it's not for Mobile Website. Basically beyond the homepage (index 
page), nothing is searchable by search engines as any other page is attached to 
the homepage url due to its Ajax and hashes – this maybe fixable by using 
multi-page template (terminology from the framework), but right now I don't see 
it possible.
