ByAnnette

For those of us using WordPress installations to power our websites, it soon becomes apparent that there is constant maintenance to be done. Seems version updates – and plugin updates are needed almost weekly. This is a good thing, as security holes are tighened and improvements are activated.

If you plan to upgrade to WordPress 3.2.1., be aware that the dashboard changes. The sidebar is new, and the tab you’re on/in becomes highlighted. This is quite nice. Helps know where we are! Text and styles are a bit different and I think its an improvement. Just don’t be surprised!

    May 2013, Divs, Floats and Clears

    ByAnnette

    Using CSS and Div’s for layout. Div’s contain the information to layout the site, but making them behave in a predictable manor is not always easy. Floats are used to control positioning, (left or right) but multiple elements will need to be “cleared” to line up correctly. http://www.sitepoint.com/using-css-grid-layout-and-blend-5-to-build-a-game/ http://960.gs/ http://unsemantic.com/ http://caniuse.com/css-grid http://designfestival.com/design-organized-websites-rapidly-with-960-grid/ http://layouts.ironmyers.com/ http://css-tricks.com/all-about-floats/ http://www.quirksmode.org/css/clearing.html
