This brief paper first details where responsive web design fits in the front end design stack.

The same steps will work for any source server with little or no modification, unless to the .htaccess file or the method of accessing your database. It's not required, but it's a very good idea to turn off Friendly URLs (FURLS) in the Manager, if you have them on, and rename .htaccess to ht.access before doing any of the steps below. http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/Moving_Site_To_Another_Location

Flash Player 9,0,115,0 and 9,0,124,0 introduce several changes to the way socket policy files work. These changes are primarily to support the goal of DNS hardening , helping to ensure that ActionScript cannot be used as a means for a DNS rebinding attack that results in an unauthorized socket connection. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security.html

Structural Naming

After I threw out my two cents on ID naming conventions, Andy Clarke revisited the subject and made some more detailed proposals. As I said before, I think this is a good conversation to be having. However, the reactions of some people make me think that I wasn’t entirely clear about why.
