I Hate IE

If I could only put Bryan Bell‘s statment on one of the new work sites:

No InternetExplorer
Site design downgraded to work with Windows Internet Explorer. Images surrounded by grey result from IE’s failure to support the revolutionary PNG standard. Alternative web browsers (Mozilla, Safari, etc.) provide a better web experience.

Oh, the frustration.

Network Attached Storage

Firstly I know that what I’m looking for can be done DIY with pretty much any Linux distribution but the solution should be something that survives if I’m gone.
I’m looking for a Network Attached Storage(NAS) solution. It will need to support SMB, NFS, FTP and HTTP have a built in or easily attached tape backup, have at lease a web based administration and be a plug in and forgetabout it, except for changing daily tape backups. There should also be at lease 2 drives RAID’d for redundacy. Linksys has something close, the EtherFast� Network Attached Storage but no apparent tape backup option.
So anyone have some good suggestions?

Calendar Woes and Solutions

arcterex mentioned his, or the client’s, woes with trying to find a Lotus Notes calendar replacement.

I have recently been given a similar task, the desire to share calendars/schedules between the Kentucky office, Australia and the world travelers. At first I put it to the back burner, thinking it would take more development time that allowed but some random link mentioned Mozilla Calendar Standards Based Calendar Client Project.

All by it’s lonesome, not a big deal, but checking out iCalShare lead to,

PHP iCalendar is a php-based iCal file parser. Its based on v2.0 of the IETF spec. It displays iCal files in a nice logical, clean manner with day, week, month, and year navigation, printer view, RSS-enabled, and searchable. It supports 12 languages, is fully theme-able, and has complete timezone support.

Which combined with, How can I share my calendars?

To share your calendars, you need access to a webDAV server. If you run your own web server, you can install mod_dav, a free Apache module that will turn your web server into a webDAV server. Instructions on how to set it up are on their website. Once you set up your webDAV server, you can publish your calendar to the site, then subscribe to it from any other Mozilla Calendar. Automatically updating the calendar will give you a poor man’s calendar server.

And maybe a very nice solution. I still have to play around with WebDAV on IIS, but this might be a workable combination. Oh, the delicious side effect might be to get everyong off of Internet Explorer, Outlook and Outlook Express.

Even more div bookmarklets

bookmarklets

‘+b+’

‘+h);void(t[i].style.border=’2px solid red’);}”>Show and label divs with classes
Exactly as above, but this time only <div>s that have a class are labelled.
