Entries labelled ‘Internet Explorer’

  1. Into the Fire This entry is not a good idea.
  2. Netscape 4 is newer than Internet Explorer 6 If you thought Netscape 4 was outdated, check out IE6.
  3. IEBlurb Another Microsoftian view of “Browsing the Web”
  4. It's a Weblog Entry! What - the title isn't descriptive enough?
  5. IEBlank The Internet Explorer gang's collective web browsing knowledge
  6. Very curious... Mozilla browsers have long had an easter egg whereby if you enter about:mozilla into the location bar, you're presented with a nice quote from the Book of Mozilla.
  7. Adventures in XML I did manage to get the XML+XSL-based jiggery-pokery for The Twaddle working - quite nicely, actually. Getting the entire contents of the content field onto the page took a little bit of effort, as described on the mozillaZine forums.
  8. IE + XML + XSL + XHTML + W3C = Get In! As a prelude to some major back-end renovation I'm planning for The Twaddle, I decided to see if I could get Internet Explorer 6 to display this XSL-ified weblog nicely, not accounting for IE-unsupported CSS (which is already taken care of at The Twaddle). Previously, IE displayed the DOCTYPE declaration as plain text at the top of the page; using strategic HTML commenting, I've managed to prevent it from doing so.
  9. Wow! Internet Explorer can even mangle XML! Here's me thinking Internet Explorer wouldn't display this feed properly! Obviously, it doesn't... but it at least has a go at mangling it, leaving this text (and this) legible. You do get a nice piece of HTML above the title, however.
  10. Freewebs aren't very good at MIME types Freewebs is obviously designed to cater for webmasters who've never heard of Jeffrey Zeldman... Like most, if not all, free web hosts, Freewebs use filename extensions to determine what MIME type to serve for a file; this is OK, until they get it wrong. Granted, Atom and XSL aren't the most commonly used file formats on the web but nonetheless Freewebs could bother serving them with the proper MIME types.
