CSS Attribute Selectors

Attribute selectors which will hopefully become official when CSS 3 is passed are pretty cool. They work on most modern browsers, with the big exception being IE6/Win (not that I’d consider it modern by any means).

Here’s an example that applies a background image to a link only if it contains the pdf extension in it’s href

a[href$=".pdf"] {
background: url(../images/acrobat.png) no-repeat right top;
padding-right: 14px;
}

Wrong Turn in Galloway

Was meeting with a potential client with what seems like a pretty cool potential project in Galloway. Not too familiar with the area, but was able to find the spot on time despite taking a wrong turn or two.

Getting home was a whole different story. Not sure exactly where and when I initially got lost but I was lost for a good 40 minutes with not much gas in the tank. Somehow managed to drive thru Cologne, Germana, and the Pilgrim Academy just to name a few. It’s just woods out there, nowhere to pull over and ask for directions. Very bizarre. Somehow managed to find myself on the White Horse Pike and finally had some idea where I was.

Twilight Princess

Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess BoxJust finally beat The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. It was quite an amazing game, I’d put it pretty high up on best games I’ve played list. Good mix of puzzle solving and fighting. Beat Ganondorf without getting any info online (not that I had a choice, Comcast was down).

Currently 4.75/5 Stars.

Salem

Took a little road trip to Salem Community College in the pouring rain today. Managed to get myself quite lost on the way there too. Thanks to the man in Lukoil for the fine directions that got me there right on schedule.

It’s very different over there, almost like I was in a different state altogether. Many, many cows.

Finally got a chance to meet in person with the people that I’m working with. Good bunch. To conclude the meeting, we had a pizza party!
