James Duncan Davidson has a blog. I found James Duncan Davidson's blog tonight. For those of you who didn't know, James is the original author of both Tomcat and Ant. Now he appears to be caught up in Mac OS X goodness, and is having fun with the T68i and iSync. Powered by blosxom, motivated by simplicity, driven by perl.

XForms in IE. Are you aware that the <form> tag will eventually be replaced by XForms? Check out this informative site (requires IE and installing an msi) to see what this will give us. I'd love to be writing XForms in the next year, but it will probably take a while to get xform-enabled browsers onto everyone's desktops.

Referrers for Roller. Dave appeared to be working his butt off all weekend and pumped out a cool new feature for Roller 0.9.6. Go to his site and look at the bottom right to see what I've talking about - Dave Rules! I'll be upgrading in the next day or two, just for this feature.

Testing Javascript. I found JsUnit this morning. JsUnit is a Unit Testing framework for client-side JavaScript.

  • JsUnit uses exception handling, which means we need JavaScript 1.4 or higher. That means that the browsers supported are Internet Explorer 5.0 or later, Netscape 6.0 or later, Mozilla 0.9 or later, and Konqueror 5.0 or later. JsUnit has been tested for:
    • IE 5.5+, on Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 95, Mac OS 9, Mac OS X
    • Mozilla 0.9.4+ on all platforms (includes all Gecko-based browsers including Netscape 6.2.3+ and Netscape 7.x)
    • Konqueror 5+ on KDE 3.0.1 (Linux)

Now you should have enough testing frameworks to triple the timeframe of your project... Posted in General at Oct 21 2002, 04:40:48 AM MDT Add a Comment
