Work Work Work and more work!
Posted by Jason | Under Holiday Life Thursday Mar 1, 2007my pimples and eye bags all come out play ler.. haiz..
my work which is 2 months overdue is NOT YET COMPLETE. I’m still working on it! So tired sia..two days consecutively after outings, drum lesson, cg i coome home CHIONG CHIONG CHIONG until i dont feel well still chionging.. but still cant complete. LoL But i believe i’m progressing~ so many things to do.. two days ago, while I prepare myself to start redoing the site layout, i implemented CSS2 a.k.a CSS-P Css Positioning. You know something? My previous code layout was THIS LONG:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
now, with the new and improved css-p my code is just:
|
|
|
|
and what’s the best part? It’s so easy to edit! Unlike the tables that I wrote, TROUBLESOME!!!
However, even though CSS-P has it’s advantage. There is a GREAT DISADVANTAGE TOO.
Times and times again, because of cross browser compability the layout just appeared “OUT OF PLACE”
Definition of Cross Browser Compability: Tags, functions, commands that works in one might or does not work in another. eg( Internet Explorer suppose color scroll bar, firefox dont.)
IRRITATING AH I tell you.. I read the web, everyone is commenting “IE6 & 7″ with all the amazing remarks that only involve words that you usually use in a negative ways.
Yep. IE 6 is the browser that “everyone” loves and is giving me the most headache.
However, no matter what it is, I’m proud to have learnt CSS-P. Why?
CSS 3 coming ah!
haha, I remember last time when I was young, my parent keep telling me, in IT industry very ma fan de. Everytime need to improve yourself.. Now I understand already.. If I dont learn CSS 1 and 2 now, when 3 is out. I die. Some more now with so many browsers, each have their own standards.. we ought to be up to date.
Internet Explorer, FireFox, Opera, Safari etc..etc..
Troublesome ah! lol
To make one tag to “function properly”, 3 lines of codes of the same meaning has to be stated at times just for the browsers compatibility.
As troublesome as it is though, it beat writing 10 lines to create tables haha
All in all, I’m satisfied with CSS and I believe there is much more for me to learn and now ah after learning CSS, i’m tempted to create new layout for my blog ler haha. Look forward to it man~ My new blog layout gonna rox~ That is if I have the time to do it
Tools involved when coding:
Photoshop CS2
NotePad++
FlashFXP
Internet Explorer
FireFox
PhpmyAdmin
FireFox Error Console
Google
twopaws.sg!
crazy..
this is the number of things I opened to do work. LoL
I miss you ah haha
it just float in somehow when I doing work. LoL
ok lah tired ler.
Note for IT Freaks whose going to advance in Web Design:
It is strongly advise by ME yours truly, to forget your thinking of tables can do everything in layout design. Believe me.. you’ll fall in love with CSS once you work on it!
Here’s an image to prove it!

good night..and DONT …
let the bed bugs bite..
