Ickiness

I hate it when my perfect layout looks all wrong in the other browser. Why doesn't everyone just use the right browser? I hate having to redo (slightly) the files I thought were finished. I hate having to tweak the CSS to make it look good. I like

CDP Redesign Progress

Thirty seven files down, forty seven files in four sections to go. That'll finish off the English side, plus fixing the issue with the langauge switch widget. On the plus side, it'll be way easier next time I want a site redesign, and the HTML is

Priorities

Big project ahead. I'm working on a redesign of the Christian Depression Pages website. This is an eighty-plus page site in English, with Icelandic translations of parts of it. I have one of the easy English sections done but there are seven more English sections, five Icelandic sections,

Breakdown

The main drive in our desktop machine failed last week. Total meltdown. Hubby's downstairs trying to convince Windows that this new hard drive is OK to install on, and that it should be happy with the new digs. I can't watch. I hate it when things

Notes for software companies

If you're going to develop a database application, for pity's sake include sort and find features. Don't get halfway through translating the helpfiles from Dutch to English and stop, hoping no-one will notice. I noticed, and I can't read Dutch. Software should
