Lot 30 is a high-end restaurant located in Charlottetown, PE. Gordon, the head chef and owner, wanted a simple and elegant design with text and photos that could be fully edited by he and his staff. So we built him a custom CMS (content management system) that does just that. A perfect balance between form and function.

Soundmanager2 & Wordpress

admin — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 00:03:43 +0000

In order to get soundmanager2 working on racoonbandit.com (wordpress), I had to make some adjustments to this tutorial (haven’t went through this one yet). I had to:

add a swf dir to theme folder
add soundmanager2.js to js folder (in theme folder)
add soundmanager2.swf to end of path name in inline.js
add some css to the bottom of that file: movieContainer > visibility: hidden & height: 1px;

X-UA-Compatible

Internet Explorer has many rendering engines ready for use. What this line of code basically does is force IE to use the most up to date rendering engine that it has available, so that your pages will render as well as possible. It then goes on to talk about Chrome Frame. Chrome Frame is a plugin for IE6, 7, and 8 which brings all the rendering, and js power of Google Chrome to IE. If the user has it installed, we render our site using it. For more information on Chrome Frame, and how you can even prompt users without it to install it, check here.

… I think this can be done with htaccess as well

Faster page load hack

admin — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 21:56:30 +0000

This empty conditional comment hack is used to basically increase performance of your site. When conditional comments are used on your site, for example, for an ie6 conditional stylesheet, it will block further downloads until the css files are fully downloaded, hence increasing load time. To solve this issue, an empty conditional comment, like below, is used before any css is loaded in the document, and the problem will be solved! For further reading, check out this article.
