Believe me, I am a Web designer. The reason why this page looks so odd is because you're viewing it in a browser that doesn't support Cascading Style Sheet positioning. It doesn't work in particularly old browsers. However, if you scroll down, you'll find all my content. Don't let this site fool you, I've designed plenty of sites that work in older browsers, this was just my first step towards what is the future of Web design.

Javascript development of yesteryear

Thursday | January 27, 2005 | 10:44 am  

If you had to do javascript development before Firefox brought us the Javascript console… I feel for you.

I just finished working on some NCAA bracket Javascript at work, and it was painful enough as is… I can’t imagine not having the console at my side.

The upside is, after the pain of initial development I cut the code back from 145 lines to 83 lines, and I could probably have cut it back further if I (used the/knew the) language (more often/better).

So, to any and all JS developers out there… if you’re not already using Firefox for development, then get get downloadin’.
