Oct252006Interview on “Inside the Net”
Leo Laporte of TWIT TV, and about a zillion other podcasts, interviewed me about CSS: The Missing Manual. You can find the interview as part of his Inside the Net podcast series. By the way, he loves the book and recommends it highly!

Richard,
Thanks for that link. Amazing! No JavaScript–not even the common .htc file used to get IE 6 in line with other browsers. A very cool menu system!!!

Dave,
I just heard the interview and found out that you were in Portland! We are in the process of planning a BarCamp, and we have monthly meetups to chat about cool technologies. I thought you might be interested in attending. Our next meetup is scheduled for Nov. 30, and you can get more info or RSVP on the wiki http://barcamp.org/BarCampPortland

Dawn,
Thanks for the note. I remember seeing an event listed on the BarCamp site, but I thought it had already happened. I’ll definitely attend if I can.

hi,
I heard the podcast, thought it was great and I’m going to buy your book. I have one issue that I hope you can give me some insight on. On this page http://www.ggmarlene.com/php/services.php
I can’t make the lower left red box stay the same size in IE. Firefox displays it the way I want it too. This is a table layout right now. I want to read your book and then do everything in CSS. Could you give me some idea on how to do this with CSS, thanks

While listening to you on “Inside the Net”, Leo mentioned that Steve Gibson was working on a CSS menu with no scrips. You replied that JavaScript was required on IE6 to do triggering of menus. I looked has his work and found no script at all. Thought you might want see it.
