Apache, PHP, MySQL, ColdFusion, and all the like
- February 14, 2006

Near the end of the January, I talked about installing ColdFusion on my home computer. Starting this week (hopefully), I'll be writing a number of posts detailing how to go about doing these installations, with the express purpose of creating an environment for the testing of Web pages, or the learning of HTML/PHP/ColdFusion.
Yes, I do like the Internet Explorer 7 ad

Bink.nu has a link to a WMV file of the IE 7 teaser video. To say the least, it's cute - in a very good way.

So. I took the next step and downloaded, and installed, ColdFusion MX 7.01, Developer's Edition, on my home computer. (I also picked up another 512 MB of memory from Crucial.com, but that's another story.)

Since I've received emails with the 'pen computers' twice, and both times in the same day, I had to check this out.
Don't use ul when you should use blockquote
- January 2, 2006
- James Skemp
I'm sorry, but I hate it when people use <ul> instead of <blockquote>. <ul> is for list items, and should therefore be composed of list items (<li>s). If you're not going to put <li>s for each item within a <ul> block, don't use <ul>

With the new year, comes a couple of smart technology reminders. Your computer can't stay clean by itself - make sure you're doing your part. And with the new year, and new month, why not verify things are up-to-date now?
Tools of the Trade

Thanks to my sister still being in school, I've been able to pick up a number of very powerful commercial tools for fairly cheap. I'm big on free programs - Open Source being the key word these days - but sometimes the professional's tools are just more than all that.
Ever had a reason to compare two files?

I talked about WinMerge a couple of posts ago (which has been updated, by the way, and which I've used a number of times for work), and now I'm going to talk about the equally free WinDiff.
