I recently started helping out as much as I can with the development of Gregarius, a very neat open source feed aggregator which I use on a daily basis, so I figured I might as well help out with it, and learn some AJAX technology along the way. It is after all where I get all my news from. My first contribution was to put together a piece of code that the other developers had around, whose purpose was to create a button that would hide or show the feeds side bar. I’m happy to say that the plugin is now completed, and you can find it at the plugin repository.

I wrote a little script for automatically creating a webpage from a directory full of jpg images. You simply have to go to the directory, and run the script from there, and it will create thumbnails of the pictures, a rudimentary index.html file, and a corresponding css file. It’s a small script, not really doing much, but useful for some people I guess. To use it, you would need ImageMagick. You can find it here. Use at your own risk.

I just updated my webpage, using some CSS tricks from maxdesign. Their site is awesome. I think CSS is really neat. The main idea is to separate HTML content from presentation. In your HTML page you decide what the various parts comprising your page are, and then in a separate file you decide how you want it to look. One of the advantages of that, is that it is easier to use a consistent set of settings among your entire website. Also, you can easily offer your visitors the option of viewing the page in lots of different styles! And it’s so easy to work with. And let’s not forget the cool navigation bars on the side, that you can create!
The folks at maxdesign have a really wonderful collection of tutorials to teach you how to do some really cool stuff with CSS. In fact, you can even write games in CSS! Sameer has links to some of them.
Later.
