Fri, 16 May 2008 20:34:01 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en As you may have heard, Adobe recently released the first beta of Flash Player 10. It looks like unFocus.FlashPlayerInfo has been checking for single version digits, rather than multiple: _versionRaw.match(/Shockwave Flash (\d)\.(\d)/); The fix is easy enough (I could swear I actually fixed this at one point too): _versionRaw.match(/Shockwave Flash (\d+)\.(\d+)/); This problem doesn't ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2008/05/16/a-problem-with-flash-player-10-version-number-and-javascript-detection/ unFocus.History Keeper 2.0 Beta 2 is now available for download. Feel free to download, test and use the new beta. Here's what's new and fixed: History.js - There was an odd error, from a mixed up function, keeping History Keeper from working at all in the last release. It was the first ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/09/12/unfocushistory-keeper-20-and-swfhtml-beta-2-out-now/ Well I guess it's not really hidden, as much as it's a tag along to unFocus.History Keeper. I've had an interesting (to me anyway) battle in my own head about whether to even continue maintaining SwfHTML and it's companions SwfCommunicator, and FlashPlayerInfo, since there are many solutions to the problems ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/09/10/swfhtml-and-flashplayerinfo-the-extra-stuff-in-history-keeper/ I had a planed to replace the use of Prototype.js in the Share This Wordpress plugin, since that was the only plugin using it. Prototype is quite large, and my server isn't currently set up to gzip javascript files. I started to replace it with jQuery, and add an option ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/09/08/share-this-sans-prototypejs/ I just finished four days of trying to install Adobe CS3, and I thought I'd mention what the problem was (or more accurately, what the solution was, since I'm not entirely sure what the root cause was), in case it will save someone else the trouble. First let me say, ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/08/31/adobe-cs3-install-headache-and-ie-7-beta-remnants/ For a while I have been creating and sending links to History Keeper to http://www.unfocus.com/projects/HistoryKeeper/. When I moved that page into WordPress the URL became lower case, and case sensitive. This can be a problem for those used to Windows and IIS non-case sensitive URLs. To get around the problem, ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/08/31/case-insensitive-permalinks-plugin-for-wordpress/ Update: This information applies to Giraffe AJAX Calendar 2.3.1. AJAX Calendar 2.4 was released on September 3, 2007. This information is incompatible with that new version. Update 2: It seems that this new version is supposed to simply replace the functionality of the old Calendar, without requiring any extra work (so ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/08/31/ajax-calendar-widgetized/ Well, it seems that Object Patent Magic is not without it's problems. I originally intended for this to be a super tiny drop in patch that could be used on any existing site to solve the click to activate issue in IE. But while it does work on everything that I've deployed it ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/08/17/object-patent-magic-woes/ I occasionally come across an argument against the implementation of embedded web fonts in web browsers and I wanted to comment on it. The argument is that embedding fonts in web pages should not be allowed, because either people don't have the rights to use fonts that way, or because it's ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/08/09/no-embedded-web-fonts/ Gah! I'd like to apologize to anyone who received a ping of a very early draft version of this post, or had to suffer through that unfinished thought dump or any of the hurried revisions in between. I'll post the finished article in a little while. I hit the publish button accidentally ... http://www.unfocus.com/projects/2007/08/08/embedible-web-fonts-and-the-rights-counter-argument/
