Over 10 years ago, I wrote my first blog post. Since then, I've authored books, had kids, traveled the world, found Trish and blogged about it all.

New Theme Switcher

I finally decided to replace my old theme-switcher with a more standard one. Switch themes all you like with the drop-down below the search box. If the text is too small right now, try the sunset theme, I think you'll like it. I noticed the Aqua theme needs a little work on the date bar, but I'm guessing no one uses it, so I'm not too concerned. Future enhancements (in the next 6 months - 1 year) include adding this to the X2 theme in Roller, as well as changing the drop-down to a slick "customize" button like the one found on Netscape's DevEdge (top right corner). Let me know if you experience any issues.

My main reason for doing this was so I could validate my CSS, which obviously needs some work!

The theme switcher doesn't seem to work with my browser - Mozilla Firebird 0.6 (based on Mozilla 1.4b). In fact, under the form controls, a bunch of JavaScript is displayed.

Don - that's strange - it works fine for me. I'm using Firebird on Win2K and it works fine. Here's the details: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030516 Mozilla Firebird/0.6 Maybe you have a cached version?

Actually, it works fine now. Wierd...
