Great quote and such a simple concept that a small percentage of the current web designers are learning from the beginning. These simple concepts need to be taught to new designers and developers from the beginning.
It doesn’t take much foresight to anticipate that with the rise of Natural User Interfaces (NUIs) like the iPhone and iPad, UI designers will have a greater responsibility to optimize for orientation-based contexts.
Great list of what the guys working on Webkit are experimenting and pushing out there right now. They also list the properties that are available for Mozilla/Firefox but there is a lot less detail on those properties.
They also have a dead simple Color Picker that I decided I would use as a MenuExtra SSB (Single Site Browser) with Fluid. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve just wanted to pick a color this way without opening up Photoshop or using the Mac OS color picker
I’ve heard a lot of the numbers. I’ve been a person who has cursed at IE things that shall not be mentioned on this blog. The truth is it’s not going any where and if you are creating something truly useful that people are going to want to use and they are at the whim of an IT department that does not want to update one piece of software for thousands of computers just do your job. That’s what I finally realized.
I’m not happy with IE8, 7, 6, so on and so forth, but I can make things work in those browsers because I’ve been in a position where that’s where the revenue was coming from. Obvioulsy, being a forward thinker and someone who loves the new hawtness as much as anyone else I am perfectly happy knowing that a website may not look exactly the same in IE as it’ll look in Safari, Chrome, Opera, Firefox or any other browser that took the initiative to support advancing standards. As long as nothing is broken and the content is totally accessible as well as clearly layed out in all browsers then my job is done.
By the way, I’m not opposed to using this option either Universal Internet Explorer 6 CSS
