ALA Updates

[ThePsyko]

So....Crawpops and you are having a great time ?

I am, and am sure he is but I haven't heard from him in a few days..
besides, it's too expensive to ship the squirrels back and forth so we each
have our own stash

I noticed the res thing too. Im sure they have their reasons.

I imagine ALA's only reason for setting a fixed width (regardless of
what that width might be) is because they have never bothered to make a
flexible design before. Why start now?

Ironically, I always thought ALA was most usable with stylesheets
disabled. Looks like that still holds true.

It would be interesting to know how
many people outside of corporate lockdown terminals actually still run
in 800*600.

My browser window is almost always less than 900px wide, but at least
1000px high. Screen size is larger, of course.

me!!, well where I used to work we did.

Emphasis on the *used to* and the *did*.

 

[[spooky.action]]

Uh huh, sure kid. All I'm seein is that the same stuff I was doing
TWO YEARS ago that you were bitching incessantly about is suddenly
bein slurped up by all you deficient little assholes. Apparently that
means that *I* set the standards and you stupid bitches are just two
years out of date.

Like what? You start ranting about how great Flash is after it's been out
for years. I wonder why your sudden interest in Flash? Was trying to
actually code getting too hard for you? Now you discovered you can
just point and click yourself a website just like you used to in Frontpage
and Dreamweaver, no wonder you suddenly love it. Now you don't have to
learn real HTML or worry about having to use transitional DTDs so modern
browsers can understand all the deprecated HTML you use. Just because you
don't understand it, doesn't mean it "sucks". Whats even more ironic about
your criticisms of AHA is your site has all the same failing and then
some. Whats "fluid" about your site? Hell, you don't even know how to
position elements in CSS, you have to frame your site just to get it to
center. It's interesting that your harshest criticisms are of things you
can't do. Well I shouldn't say that, you could learn it, you just
choose not too. Who do you think your fooling? You may be able to pull one
over on a bunch of diaper wearing freaks (assuming that you were actually
lying to them) but you can't fool us, especially when we can just view the
source of your sites and see what your really capable of.

me!!, well where I used to work we did. The point of 216 colors is to
prevent your color scheme fucking up should it be viewed on a screen
with low color depth. Of course, is entirely the designers choice.

Wow, 216 colors! Cool. My hercules graphics card can only do 16 colors.

and this:

this._quality = "best";
(the latter of which can be used to create perfect liquid websites
with absolutely no effort at all).


LOL, only an ignorant like you would think that there's no coding in
Flash. Hell, you can't really DO anything in Flash (outside of simple
animation) WITHOUT some kind of code.

And when I see some in your Flash design I might think otherwise.

I make my own DTDs now, Bitch. What's the matter, don't you know how?
Is teh code too much for you? I guess you just like the point and
click DTD declarations you get in Frontpage, huh my lil projectionist.

I think you mean make up.

How could I be making my own custom DTDs if I didn't understand it,
you MORON.


I have more than one you know, this is the site I was referring to:
http://www.backwater-productions.net/_test_platform/liquid/index.html
The only true liquid website in existence.

No matter how much you keep telling yourself that, it doesn't make it any
more true. Many people have tinkered with that idea, I worked with
something similar years ago at an old gig using Perl and Imagemagick, but
like everyone else that experimented with it, I came to the same
conclusion. It isn't practical because of the load it puts on the server.
You couldn't run a major site like that, that's why people use an image
cache solution instead of generating the images each time. You'll figure
it out eventually. Considering your lack of experience in administering
servers I can see why this might seem alien to you. There's more to making
web pages than you realize.

Of course, now that I'm coding in Flash I can do that much faster and
much more efficiently by dumping the hybrid JS/PHP for what
ActionScript can do.

I'm sure that's why most web applications are written in ActionScript.

The only way to vertically position elements using CSS isn't
compatible with any browser on the Mac, Stupid.

Wow, just when I think I've seen the depths of your ignorance you manage
to dig a hole and jump in.

On the contrary, I've already done them:
http://www.backwater-productions.net/wwcc/histology-1/

However I've since transcended such compatibility deficient methods
for higher level, FULLY cross browser and cross platform compatible
solutions.

You hide all your HTML in your javascript and all your formatting is in
those "transcendental" <style> tags you also hide in the javascript.
That's the only reason it validates. If you really understood CSS you
wouldn't have any <style> tags. Nice try n00b. Like I said before, your
just a poser, but a damn good one. Your persistence amazes me. Even in the
face of insurmountable facts you still try, I at least have to give you
that.

I might have an easier time believing your self promoted level of skill if
you could actually do something as simple as correctly configuring your
sig.

I usually don't care enough to indulge your mindless fantasies, but like a
car accident I shouldn't slow down for, I couldn't resist this one.
Making your own DTDs?

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "W3C Sucks//DTD Farfoos//EN"
"http://www.backwater-productions.net/farfoos.dtd">

Like I said, it's just made up. Browsers usually ignore tags it doesn't
understand and because that isn't a valid DTD, browsers just ignore it.
That's why pages will load with no DTD specified and why browsers will
load your page with your phoney DTD, the browsers are just ignoring it.
You can fool your clients into thinking you are what you say you are, but
we're not them. In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king and
you should go back there. We see you for the fraud you are.

scribble :

Damn...silly me for thinking you left all that behind and got "straight"

stop.. you're killing me LMAO

 

[[spooky.action]]

WRONG! The browsers use the file specified in the Doc type, you
fuckin MORON. What the hell do you think this is for:
http://www.buttwater-productions.net/farfoos.dtd
It sure the **** isn't 21K worth of code that's just being ignored you
stupid fool.

I know for a fact because when I use a custom DTD with specific things
that would only work in a browsers quirk mode...they don't.
Therefore, teh browser isn't reverting back to quirks mode which is
what happens when no (or a munged/fake) DTD is specified.

Once again, this is the difference between a deficient little puke
like you who only READS rather than actually test things for yourself.
****, if I wanted your retarded little NONpinion I'd go fire up Google
you dribbling little idiot.

lol Your too funny, now it's a real DTD but it wasn't like that when I
totally burned you on it before. It was added after the fact. The link to
the DTD wasn't there originally and it was validating as 4.0 Transitional,
the default DTD. Just another one of your pathetic attempts to lie. Nice
try n00b. To bad the backpeddle isn't an Olympic event, you'd get the gold
every time. That shit may fly with the yokels in Walla Walla but not all
of us live in an ignorant backwater dump.

It is actually liquid, just designed with a min full browser in a res of
1024*768, which isnt asmuch of an issue as it used to be

ROTFL...oh so if *I* do it then it's like the whole fuckin WORLD is
practically ending, but when teh supposed "best web developers" do it
they've "got their reasons", eh?

*shakes head*

No, you should just stay the **** away from webdesign, simple as.

Of course, as fuckin defieint as they are they obviously haven't
figured out this lil trick:
this._quality = "best";

Oh you mean that neat little trick you read about and failed to
impliment properly?

Cause otherwise they'd be building all their sites in Flash...of
course including user functionality and database access via Flash
isn't as cookie cutter and bitch ass stupid easy as the methods
they're currently using.

Sure they would captain insano. *rolls eyes*

...if that's the case why don't they dump the CSS, dump the
JavaScript, **** dump the majority of the HTML and just use
Flash...granted it's got a steeper learning curve if you wanna do
something other than just pretty graphics, but it really is best
solution.

No its not really, and people dont dump everything for that exact
reason, dont worry, when you catch up with the rest of the world Im sure
you will realise it too.

CSS isn't a replacement for JavaScript, Kid.

And who said it was? Lets see, shall we do our effect using the most
widely support technique, or shall we fuckup our userbase and use
something less supported. Hell, why dont you go out and code a brainfuck
stylesheet.

In fact CSS is pretty
limiting without the use of JavaScript. Not that it matters, they're
both deficient in comparison to Flash/ActionScript.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH OMFG, there it is again LOL
"In fact CSS is pretty limiting without the use of JavaScrip"
LOL, thats right hatter Im having fun. Im having fun laughing at your
stupidity and inability to grasp the SIMPLE technologies of the
internet. LOL

...except that the W3C isn't there to make or set standards, the
purpose of the W3C is only to RECOMMEND standards...and a lot of their
recommendations are just fucking stupid to say the least...but what
would you expect, those who make up the W3C are the very same
lackwitted deficients who made IE, FireFox, Netscape, etc, etc, etc in
the first place.

I mean REALLY think about that, the people who are RECOMMENDING the
standards...don't even follow them.

Maybe everyone just took a ride on the stupid train or something, but
that really is just eight shades of fuckin dumb no matter how you
wanna look at it.
