I am back after a summer break. Really had to lay low a bit and concentrate on work and enjoy some free time / vacation :) Had a beautiful trip to southern France with my family, which actually was my first real vacation after almost 10 years. I am planning to consolidate all my websites over the next months and make them more integrated again.
portalZINE TV will get most of my attention, as I am starting with our second season. Season 2 will feature more Tipps & Tricks segments and our first DIY segments in October.The first season allowed us to experiment, the second will be more targetted and more releaxed ;)
Really looking forward to a nice autumn start.
Cheers

Webkit passes Acid3 test.
“Today we would like to announce that WebKit is the first browser engine to fully pass Acid3. A while back, we posted
that we scored 100/100 and matched the reference rendering. Now, thanks
to recent speedups in JavaScript, DOM and rendering, we have passed the
third condition, smooth animation on reference hardware. “
I normally don’t get involved in such discussions anymore, but could not keep my mouth shut.
Not really sure why anyone complained about the rockstar. I thought it was a fresh approach. I was laughing when I heard that people brought the design down. Really, some people need to loosen up ;)
That design never compromised any corporate promises or lead into a wrong impression of what jQuery was and will be. If you can not sell jQuery to your customers because its frontpage is to flashy, you are doing something wrong :)
For anyone actively using a javascript lib, what counts is its ability to reach goals, not how its frontpage looks.
Sorry but a flashier website just pulls in more people , than the current crippled left over. All that talk about script kiddies, that is how innovation happens, how new blood and new ideas enrich a project. Projects that close their door to the so called script kiddies, loose spirit fast. Not just talking here, I actually witnessed it multiple times.
I have been a jQuery fan from the beginning and sad to see a cool fresh design get pulled down by its community. I am sure the jQuery team stood behind the new design and that is what counts.
Well just my to cents.
And guys keep up the good work.
Cheers

flXHR [flĕkʹsər],(flex-er)
is a *client-based* cross-browser, XHR-compatible tool for cross-domain
client-to-server ‘AJAX’ communication. It utilizes an invisible
flXHR.swf instance that acts as sort of a client-side proxy for
requests, combined with a Javascript object/module wrapper that exposes
an identical interface to the native XMLHttpRequest (XHR) browser
object, with a few helpful additions and a couple of minor limitations.
FlashTA is a WYSIWYG replacement text area for HTML
forms. While there are various implementations done in javascript, most
of them don´t work in this/that browser/OS combo, and every time a
browser vendor makes a change, they need to update the editor so it
doesn´t break on every possible combination of browsers.
FlashTA tries to overcome that problem by using flash. It also tries to adhere stricty to the XHTML specification. No presentation code is generated (so say bye bye to your idea of selecting text color, font face, etc).
FlashTA features an easy integration and multiple browser support (Mozilla, MSIE, FireFox, Opera & Safari).
Ever needed custom formatted sample / test data, like, bad? Well, that’s the idea of the Data Generator.
It’s a free, open source script written in JavaScript, PHP and MySQL that lets you quickly
generate large volumes of custom data in a variety of formats for use in testing software,
populating database….
