[WSG] please help me understand how Opera (9.5) deals with em, % and pixel

Is it just me kept running into issues with Opera? I really don't remember having these problems so obvious with pre-version 9.5 that I can't tolerate. I am getting this impression that the evolution of Opera has come to an end and now it's rapidly reversing back to the buggy primitive

[WSG] Learning Javascript properly

Hi all, I really want to get stuck in and learn Javascript properly, and by this I mean not filling my page with onclick and sending hrefs to #. But instead abstracting it all into the .js file and keeping my markup clean. I've followed the book by Jeremy Keith called DOM Scripting which teaches

RE: [WSG] Learning Javascript properly

I think that is going to depend a lot on what you are trying to do with your JS knowledge: are we talking about animation, AJAX or something entirely different? Regards, Mike -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Simon Sent: 18 September 2008

I've been trying to convince people here at work to use JQuery for UI, but most are reluctant, because it's a framework. Any good arguments of Why it is still OK to use JQuery? Anya V. Gerasimchuk Web Designer, IT - Web Shared Services UNIFI Information Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] (513)

Re: [WSG] Learning Javascript properly

Anya, It just makes good business sense, If you can write what would normally take 40 lines of code to do and can condense it to a half dozen. That's reason enough for me. Today's customers are demanding a lot more for less so if you can do something in half the time - why not. Regards

I agree. Also I think their argument is that frameworks change, and if that happens, we are going to be stuck with what we had before... Anya V. Gerasimchuk Web Designer, IT - Web Shared Services UNIFI Information Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] (513) 595 -2391 Aubrey Morrell [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [WSG] Learning Javascript properly

What I learn from JQuery community is that it is quite stable, BC and consistent. It saves me a lot of headaches when dealing with weird behaviors of different browsers including bad ones: IE6 or IE7. If anyone want to write JavaScript from the scratch, he will encounter a lot of problem,

Re: [WSG] Learning Javascript properly

jQuery is really good because, unlike some other frameworks, it doesn't lock you into its little world. You're still coding in javascript, and jQuery is just a really handy set of functions to help you out with just the really frustrating parts. It's really important to use a framework nowadays
