Update: Firefox 2.0.0.13 is now out and it would appear the bug has been fixed.
Any web developers that spend any time using CSS would be familiar with the Firebug add-on for Firefox. (If you don’t have it, get it. It is the best web development and diagnostics tool out there.)
Having become completely dependent on this […]

I’ve been using Mozilla’s DOM Inspector for a long time now and I’ve come to depend on it as my rapid problem solver. Need to instantly figure out the structure of a page I’ve never worked on? No problem. See all style rules applying to an element then look up their line numbers in the […]
McFarlane Prize - Highly Commended award
29 September, 2006 in Technical, Personal, CSS, Web Standards, Design and Usability. 2 CommentsCongratulations Glass Onion, for the inaugural McFarlane Prize 2nd place “Highly Commended” award for a great team effort on the ACPE website.
It’s great that the McFarlane Prize is giving recognition to developers not only for good design but for all round well built solutions. Building to web standards and best practices is seldomly valued or […]
McFarlane Prize - shortlisted!
28 September, 2006 in CSS, Web Standards, Design and Usability. 3 CommentsRegretfully, I couldn’t get to the Web Directions conference this year, but it was a pleasant surprise to be invited to attend the closing session of said conference, and award ceremony for the inaugural McFarlane Prize for excellence in Australian Web Design.
I’ll be going along representing Glass Onion, shortlisted for the design and development […]
While I’m sharing techniques, here’s one I’ve been playing around with recently, for making simple CSS drop caps. Y’know, starting a written piece with a nice big letter…
Skip straight to the examples here: Example 1, Example 2.
I know this isn’t new, and can probably be achieved in a variety of ways. I do it by […]
Printer-friendly page headers that work for light on dark designs
31 August, 2006 in Technical and CSS. 3 CommentsHaven’t been posting much on here of late, mainly because I’m busy with big stuff happening (which I will talk about here at a later date), plus working on a much needed major re-design of this site… So apologies for the lack of posting, but I thought I’d break the drought with a little CSS […]
While recently working with Flash to produce wireframes, I found out Flash MX 2004 has support for reading external CSS files. I’ve known about the TextFormat object as a way of formatting text fields in Flash for some time, but I never knew that you could just read in an external CSS file to […]
I thought I would break my drought in posts with this interesting technique that we’ve been looking into at work as a potential headache preventer. Using CSS and a bit of DOM scripting, Alessandro Fulciniti has combined some good ideas to produce a powerful technique to create clean rounded edges (which I like around here) […]
Whoa, what happened?
I seem to remember getting wasted last night, and upon waking up today, Gradient Dropshadow Curve has become liquid… well at least in FireFox. The only other thing I remember, is that due to IE’s inability to understand the concept of “min-width”, I chucked it in the too hard basket, to be left […]
