Internet Explorer for Mac the Easy Way: Run IE 7, IE8, & IE9 Free in a Virtual Machine

If you’re a Mac user that requires the usage of Internet Explorer under Mac OS X, you’ll find your choices are generally as follows: run IE on top of Mac OS X with Wine which can be slow and buggy, dual boot Windows and Mac OS X which is a nuisance because it requites rebooting, or use virtualization with something like Parallels, VMWare, or VirtualBox. Virtualization is generally the best method because you can run IE and other Windows apps directly atop OS X, but some of the VM software is expensive and you still need a Windows license key, right? Wrong! Run Internet Explorer 7, 8, 10, & 11 in Mac OS X the Easy & Free Way We’re going to walk you through how to install Internet Explorer 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 in a virtual machine running Windows, directly in Mac OS X – for free. Notes: the admin password for all of the IE VMs is “Password1″ without the quotes. Installation size per IE Virtual Machine is about 11GB, to install all Windows VM’s it will take about 48GB of disk space.

Semantics - Dive Into HTML5 You are here: Home ‣ Dive Into HTML5 ‣ Diving In his chapter will take an HTML page that has absolutely nothing wrong with it, and improve it. Parts of it will become shorter. Parts will become longer. Here is the page in question. The Doctype From the top: This is called the “doctype.” Microsoft came up with a novel solution. This idea spread like wildfire, and soon all major browsers had two modes: “quirks mode” and “standards mode.” In his seminal work, Activating Browser Modes with Doctype, Henri Sivonen summarizes the different modes: Quirks Mode In the Quirks mode, browsers violate contemporary Web format specifications in order to avoid “breaking” pages authored according to practices that were prevalent in the late 1990s. (You should read the rest of Henri’s article, because I’m simplifying immensely here. Now then. That happens to be one of the 15 doctypes that trigger “standards mode” in all modern browsers.

I much prefer it to Linux” - Bill Joy Usage Examples | MaxImage 2.0 Caution: This example is meant for expert users. Remember, with FillElement you can often accomplish an offset scheme very easily... just set your containing element where you want the images to be displayed. Because the first rule of Maximage 2.0 is to try to remain hands off and out of your way, the built in support for offsets have been dropped with version 2.0. This doesn't mean they aren't possible. What I am doing with the below code is creating curtains / offsets that live in front of the slideshow. Once we have our curtains up, the slideshow is still resizing to the full window and we want to have it maximize within the viewable area... our window size minus our offsets. View Example

Blog » Make a Mac (Media) Server Since I recently stopped using an old and dented Macbook Pro that was otherwise perfectly working as a computer, I tweeted about having turned it into a media, file, and Bittorrent server. I got a lot of responses asking for my setup, so here’s a guide for turning a Mac that would otherwise gather dust in disuse into a useful server. My primary demands were gathering content from the internet through FTP and Bittorrent, serving them up to the Macs and Playstation 3 on the network through streaming, and function as a secure public-facing server so I can log in and grab some files when I’m on the go.

Note: I will not be liable if you melt, damage, or hurt your old Mac in the process of following this guide. Acquiring content I’ll just briefly touch on my Bittorrent setup, which involves only Transmission. Serving content Nice extra’s Roundup
