CSS3 selectors for IE

Nützlich? Mal testen:

selectivizr is a JavaScript utility that emulates CSS3 pseudo-classes and attribute selectors in Internet Explorer 6-8. Simply include the script in your pages and selectivizr will do the rest.

Caveats:

The emulation is not dynamic. Once the styles are applied they are fixed so changes to the DOM won’t be reflected.

Hook Views Query Alter

Und wieder was für die Sammlung “könnte ja mal interessant sein”: Using Hook Views Query Alter.

I ended up implementing hook_views_query_alter. To make sure the values I wanted to filter on were in the view, I added the search facets into the view as fields. This automatically joins the necessary tables so that you don’t have to.

Drupal: SEO Tip

Blamcast weist auf ein Problem der Default robots.txt Datei bei Drupal hin.

By default, every image you upload to your Drupal site gets stored somewhere inside the “sites” directory. And, by default, Drupal is blocking every search engine from looking inside your “sites” directory. In other words, your images aren’t getting indexed! (…)Even worse, this problem doesn’t just affect images. PDFs, Flash files, text documents, and other uploads all go into the same “sites” folder. Google knows how to index these files, but your robots.txt file is stopping GoogleBot cold.

jQuery Plugins

4 jQuery Plugins die ich noch nicht kannte, sich aber entweder nützlich anhören oder schicke Dinge tun:

jQuery Mega Select List

The jQuery Mega Select List plugin converts a long drop down list into a more friendly navigational panel so items can easily be found and selected. This was designed to work with a hierarchy of items, i.e. with options organised into groups.

shadowOn - Image based plugin to add shadows to html elements. Solange es den IE gibt…

scrollExtend and onScrollBeyond

The scrollExtend plugin is designed to automatically load new content at the bottom of the screen (by appending to a DOM element) when the user scrolls beyond the element, much like Facebook does with their status updates.

und ezMark

ezMark is a jQuery Plugin that can stylize checkbox and radiobutton easily. ezMark uses an image replacement for checkbox and radiobutton. Unlike most other script which requires a lot of code, ezMark is very small (minified version is ~1.5kb) and it gracefully degrades.

WordPress: Cookie Free Domains für CSS, JS und Images

Frank Bültge erklärt was und wo man bei WordPress schrauben muss, will man seine Stylesheets, JavaScript Dateien und Bilder über eine Cookie-Freie Domain ausliefern.

Mit diesen drei kleinen Funktionen muss man in den Artikeln oder den Theme von WordPress nichts tun, man kann einfach die Funktionen in ein Plugin oder die functions.php des Themes legen. Natürlich müssen die Subdomains angelegt und richtig konfiguriert sein.

Vielleicht finde ich heute ja noch die Ruhe das mal zu testen.
