More adjustments to the style sheet. There were problems with wide browser windows. That comes of having mixed percentage (relative) and fixed widths and margins. I’ve still not cleaned it all up but it’s definitely better 🙂
B2 bug
Daynah posted in the b2 forums that the calendar doesn’t validate. She reminded me that I’d found and fixed that bug but not reported it.
I’ve now posted my bug fix in reply to Daynah’s post.
Painting
I did some more painting this evening after Jamie had gone to bed. So everywhere in that area has got one coat of paint. Second coat tomorrow.
When I’m painting, I really dislike having to wash out the pads, trays and brushes. It takes sooo looong! And use gallons of water. But, being the person I am, I have to do it properly. So I end up with wrinkled fingers but clean tools.
More Style
Thanks to Steve P, I’ve remembered to modify the Tantek Celik style sheet hack section of my style sheet. Now the differences in layout between IE and Mozilla are quite minimal.
More Puzzles
We’ve had a house full today. Everybody was round at some point: Megan (who’d stayed the night), Steve, Kim, Graham, Jackie, Thom, Bekki, Paula, and Wendy. It was a good afternoon. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.
Graham pulled out a very old puzzle from the cupboard: Rubiks’ Tangle, although the original 25-piece version.
Here you can see everyone getting stuck in to the puzzle.
If you look closely at the dressing table behind you can see half of the new Puzz 3D Steve has bought! 😮
Luckily he only made us do half of it today. The other, slightly larger, half will wait for another day.
By the way, if you know the solution to this puzzle (which I didn’t), you’ll know they were doing it wrong in the picture above 😉
CafeLog Problems
Looks like the recently updated b2 blogs list is down again. At least I’m not getting an error this time; just an empty list.
New Style
Well, the new (OK slightly modified) style sheet is installed. Generally things are a little bigger now. Hopefully more legible.
Some weird stuff though. Mozilla occasionally loses the bottom margin of a story, but not always. Also the space between columns is larger than it needs to be coz IE insists on getting it’s sums wrong and overlapping them.
I’ll see how it goes for a couple of days.
Comments welcome.
Jam Cam Jammed
I’ve been looking for a cheap lo-res digital camera with which to take photos for this very blog. I’ve not had much luck so far. I mentioned this to Steve who remembered he had a JamCam they’d bought for Megan and which she isn’t using. OK I thought, I’ll try that.
Steve brought it round today, and I took a few snaps. In the sun, indoors, at different resolutions etc.
Much later I installed the software, installed the updated drivers, and installed the update to the application software. Three re-boots later and I’m ready to download the pictures and see what they look like.
No go! The software detects the camera, starts to download, “downloading thumbnail 1 of 16, 2 of 16…” and nothing. It sticks there and will not go any further.
I tried all kinds. I even cleared the camera, took out the smart media card, and took just one picture. Nothing. It refuses to download. I changed the battery. Nothing.
So I uninstalled the software (and Adobe PhotoDeluxe refused to uninstall) and put it back in the bag.
Sorry Steve, I know it works on your PC, but it refuses to work on mine.
I’ll keep looking.
