In a grand departure from most of my blog posts, this one is not going to contain scathing commentary, strong opinions or poetic wit (some might argue none of my blog posts contain the third).
Recently, I had two articles brought to my attention that nicely cover some of the common traps and pitfalls plaguing Web designers daily. We're at a point in Internet development where techniques for overcoming coding and programming obstacles are more important than ever. The development and maturity of many different browsing environments makes this so critical.
I have two articles to present, neither of which were written by me, but both of which I read closely and feel reasonably good about endorsing. Whether you're a designer who reads The WHIR out of interest for the hosting industry, or a host who relies on the performance of your Web site, these articles can only help you have a more effective, less buggy Web presence!
Those Cross-Browser Blues: How To Develop Web Sites For Both Internet Explorer And Firefox - Don't let the name fool you. It's really not as narrow in scope as the title would lead you to believe. The author discusses Opera in some depth, and references how covering bugs in the top three browsers filter down to a wider selection. It's a nice, compact guide to bug fixing.
Nine JavaScript Gotchas - A couple of these are my constant nemeses. This is a great little article to bookmark if you do any sort of JavaScript programming.
Hope these are of some use to you! For my next installment, I intend to post a couple open letters to a couple groups of people. You know how fun open letters can be ;)
