Useful Glossaries For Web Designers and Developers
Advertisement In a day in age where there are just as many freelancers as there are university educated designers, developers, and all around web gurus, it is amazing to me how much many of us don’t know or have forgot about our trade. As a self-taught designer, I will admit to you upfront that there is a lot I don’t know when it comes to official jargon or certain aspects of things like typography and graphic design. It is these reasons that I call upon glossaries from time to time. These glossaries are also especially useful for those of you who are just getting started in the online business world. By understanding that basics of the core materials that make up whatever it is you are getting into, you will be able to have a better understanding of what’s going on in your industry, as well as be able to learn faster. But glossaries aren’t just for brushing up on old terms or for calling upon while you learn new things. Typography Glossaries Usability, UX and IA Glossaries SEO Glossaries
ie7-js - Project Hosting on Google Code
IE7.js is a JavaScript library to make Microsoft Internet Explorer behave like a standards-compliant browser. It fixes many HTML and CSS issues and makes transparent PNG work correctly under IE5 and IE6. Current version: 2.1 beta4. IE7.js Upgrade MSIE5.5-6 to be compatible with MSIE7. IE8.js Upgrade MSIE5.5-7 to be compatible with MSIE8. You do not need to include IE7.js if you are using IE8.js IE9.js Upgrade MSIE5.5-8 to be compatible with modern browsers. You do not need to include IE7/IE8.js if you are using IE9.js The script only fixes images named: *-trans.png If you want the fix to apply to all PNG images then set a global variable as follows: var IE7_PNG_SUFFIX = ".png"; You must set this variable before including the IE7.js script. <script src="IE8.js">IE7_PNG_SUFFIX=".png";</script> The suffix will ignore query string parameters. var IE7_PNG_SUFFIX = ":"; By default, the PNG will be stretched (this simulates tiling). You may link directly to these files if you wish:
Html5 cross browser polyfills - Modernizr - GitHub
The No-Nonsense Guide to HTML5 Fallbacks So here we're collecting all the shims, fallbacks, and polyfills in order to implant HTML5 functionality in browsers that don't natively support them. The general idea is that: We, as developers, should be able to develop with the HTML5 APIs, and scripts can create the methods and objects that should exist. Developing in this future-proof way means as users upgrade, your code doesn't have to change but users will move to the better, native experience cleanly.

How to Get Alerted When Somebody Has Dugg your Article :: the How-To Geek
Digg.com is the absolute biggest source of traffic that most content authors are going to ever see. The “Digg Effect” can cripple your site within an hour, so it’s nice to know if somebody has submitted one of your articles to Digg. Here’s a quick and dirty trick on how to set up an alert. First, go to the Digg Search page at Type in the base URL to your site into the search form: Make sure that you’ve selected ”URL Only”, and “Upcoming Stories”. Looks like I don’t have any upcoming stories… but if you look over on the right, there’s an RSS icon! Subscribe to the RSS feed for this search, and your RSS reader will let you know when you have been dugg, before it ever gets to the front page. If you do want to only be alerted when you get to the front page, you can change the search to “Front Page Stories” and subscribe to that feed instead. Enjoy!
Frame Animation Plugin for jQuery
by Bojmir Martinec Check the examples page Get Frame Animation Plugin for jQuery (v.1.1.2): jquery.frame.animation.1.1.2.js What is it? Wouldn't it be great if you could have a nice animated navigation menu or animated logo on your site, without any use of Flash plugins or such? How it works? Export your animation as stitched frames (filmstrip style) and then it works simply by changing the background position in steps equal to the height of one frame so we get real animation, very similar to a flipbook or a film reel. There are quite a few different options how you can use the plugin.
