Infrequently Noted

vim foo:

:set mouse=a

Sorry it's been so slow around here, I've been terribly busy. There won't be any postings until at least next Monday, as I'll be in SF, ostensibly to present on this.

Having spent the past weekend fighting with Java (and remembering how many of my gripes about it from years past are still true), this rings very, very true

If you do nothing else today, listen to this.

The KHTML/KJS changelog for Safari has some very interesting things to note for DOM scripters. The ones that most caught my eye were:

• the (previously missing) implementation of keyCode, layerX, layerY, which, pageX and pageY attributes of the event object
• HTML and XHTML attributes no longer have to be accessed by upper-case name only (although I'm afraid you'll need to do a toLowerCase() for everything instead, but at least it's closer to spec)
• offsetLeft, offsetTop, offsetWidth, offsetHeight, and offsetParent now implemented!
• Range.createContextualFragment()
• implementation of min-width and max-width
