Bicubic Scaling for Images? :Internet Explorer 6 & 7

Internet Explorer 6 & 7 do not resample images if the display dimensions differ from the image's actual dimensions. As a result, such images are rendered blockier than in other browsers.

Try IE7's bicubic interpolation mode using the follow line of CSS:

-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;

How to write better semantic HTML

Semantic HTML, is HTML where the tags used to structure content are selected and applied appropriately to the meaning of the content.

Use this handy guide as a reference when writing HTML or xHTML.

1. Limit the use of ID's for layout sections and use them more for JavaScript hooks

2. Use Sprites whenever possible

3. Use tag for repeated data that has a naturally tabular form. Never use for layout purposes.<table></table>4. only use to denote a paragraph of text. Never use for spacing alone.

5. <pre><input /></pre>, prefer to use <button> for buttons</button>

6. aim to have one on each page, description of the page</div>&nbsp; &nbsp;

<h2> define section of the page</h2>
<h3> sub-section of the page and follow an </h3>

<h2> logically.</h2>

7. <center> Never use it. Use block-level tag with text-align: center/margin: 0 auto</center>

8. Use <button> tag . It is better than <input type="”button”" />, allows us to assign different styles&nbsp;</button>

9.
use less (use clear, and padding and margin for new line spacing).

10. for any navigation /list use<ul> <li> structure will have more control over it.</li> </ul>

11. <a href="http://draft.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=4295856495053567471"> &nbsp;Use the title attribute whenever the contents of the </a><a href="http://draft.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=4295856495053567471">…</a> do not

&nbsp; &nbsp; describe what you’ll get from selecting the link. title="" is a usability aid

12. Use <strong> tag &nbsp;instead of <b>, <em> tag &nbsp;instead of <i></i></em></b></strong>

13. Write HTML first, then CSS!

14. use background:#xxx for checking the div’s &nbsp;existence, not &nbsp;border:1px solid #xxx;

15. don’t use “!important” unless you have no other option!</div>

Prototyping Website Structure

Starting a Prototype

Every web development project starts with different initial input. Sometimes an existing website is to be redesigned. Sometimes there's a detailed Request For Proposal, and sometimes there's a sitemap. Sitemaps are my enemy. They're such illusionists. They're so limited in how they define categories and relationships between pages. They fall far short of communicating the details of the pages themselves. Building a website based on a sitemap is insanity.

தீபாவளி நல்வாழ்த்துக்கள்

ஒரு உண்மை என்னனா...

நாம சின்ன புள்ளைகளா இருந்த வரைக்கும் தீபாவளி நல்லா இருந்தது...இப்ப நமக்கு தீபாவளியை அவ்வளவாக நம்மால் ரசிக்க இயலவில்லை...!!


இந்த தீபாவளி சமயத்தில் நமக்காக எவ்வளவோ செலவு செய்கிறோம். அதில் சிறிய அளவு பணத்தில் உடை, இனிப்பு, வெடி ஏதோ ஒன்றை வாங்கி அருகில், ரோட்டில், தெருவில் பார்க்கும் ஏதோ ஒரு ஏழை சிறுவர், சிறுமிகளுக்கு கொடுங்கள்...பிறகு உங்களுக்கு கிடைக்கும் மனநிறைவை உணர்ந்து அனுபவித்து பாருங்கள் !


நீங்கள் கொடுங்கள்...அப்போது அவர்கள் விழிகளில் தெரியும், உண்மையான தீபாவளி !!


என் நேசத்துக்குரிய அனைத்து உறவுகளுக்கும் மனமார்ந்த தீபாவளி நல்வாழ்த்துக்கள் !!


May the festival of lights encircle your life with joy and happiness.
Success comes at your doorsteps. With these blessings, I send my warm wishes to you on Diwali.
