Got a sample article from NFJS that looked at the two libraries. Thought everyone might enjoy having a look at it. I thought it was pretty good if a little long winded. DETAILS only FTW!

Firefox 3.6 dropped today, and I jumped on board and installed it immediately. Then to my surprise, shock, and horror, my favorite Firefox CSS fix failed. a:focus{ -moz-outline: none;} no longer works in 3.6. I tried google-ing (futile effort on the day of the release might I add) for a solution and nothing. But fear not, I played around and found one.
instead of a:focus { -moz-outline: none; } you use a:focus { outline: none; }. Seems that they no longer require a Firefox only declaration (although you may want to use both -moz-outline and outline so that less-than 3.6 users still don’t see those fun dotted boxes).

Hard to believe, but the E-com DevBlog is now over two years old. Time sure has flown and we are now reaching out to developers all over the globe. I started this blog with one of my co-workers so we could keep track of what we learned and hopefully pass it on to others. It has slowly evolved into a little bit of knowledge passing, and a monthly/bi-monthly/quarterly posting of useful weblinks (yes I know I haven’t posted Novembers LinkPost, or the December one.. it’s coming! I promise!).
In the spirit of keeping new useful things coming, and in the hope of a great year, I have completed an Adobe Air app called “VidCalc”. Basically it’s a tool to help you figure out video ratios (so you don’t skew them when you try to resize), the file size of a constant bitrate encoded movie, and how long it will take to send a file down the pipe. I could explain it in greater detail, but you should probably go check out the project page to find out for yourself.
Have a great new year!
