If you upgraded Thunderbird and discovered that the fonts used to display messages suddenly changed, and worse still, you were unable to get all messages to obey your font display settings, then this post is most likely for you. Here’s what happened to me: I upgraded to Thunderbird 3.1, and suddenly all my messages were in a font I didn’t recognize or appreciate. I insist on seeing only the plain text version (technically, the text/plain part) of all my e-mail; and what’s more, that it be displayed in a monospace font. Courier 13, in my case. So I made sure “View > Message Body As” was still set to “Plain Text”, which it was… Read the rest here

One of Textpattern’s drawbacks has always been that page templates are saved in the database. Editing them means using the textarea in the TXP admin interface, but I’m sure most people would prefer to use their favourite text editor. Here’s a workaround that works in TXP 4.2.0 (I haven’t tried other versions). Once you’ve enabled ‘Allow PHP in pages?’ in Advanced Preferences and set up your sections and page templates, put everything in your page template into a file (such as ‘pagetemplate.php’), and replace it with a PHP include: <txp:php>$docRoot = getenv("DOCUMENT_ROOT");include($docRoot.'/pagetemplate.php');</txp:php> You still need to setup your templates in TXP admin, but from there on in, you can edit the templates in a text editor and upload them. There may be a performance hit doing this, but all TXP tags work. Much easier! Update : Thanks to Sam Brown for this much neater version: <txp:php>include(txpath.'/pages/default.php');</txp:php> This is much shorter, but be aware that the ‘txpath’ value takes you to the textpattern folder rather than the site root… Read the rest here

I’m fresh back from New Zealand where I took part in FullCodePress , a knock down, drag out, web design competition to make a website for a charity in 24 hours. The competition was put on by the wonderful folks at Webstock and pitted teams from New Zealand , Australia , and the US against one another. Our teams were each paired with a charity, who was only revealed when the competition started. From there, each team took whatever assets the client brought along (all in various states of completion, or, uh, viability); copy, photos, and loads of information, to make a complete functioning website in a single day. … Read the rest here

Following on my “HTML5 vs. Flash” talk of a couple of weeks ago, I’m hoping to do a bit of blogging about HTML5, Flash, mobile apps, and more. But first I need to get some terminology straight. As I did in my talk, I’m going to refer to the collection of front-end web-standards technologies

A friend and I have decided to build a web service/site/whatever the kids are calling them these days. A thing on the web to help you out from time to time. As a result, we’re looking for a web host with great service, reliability, and scalability, and I was curious about your experiences. Here are a few details on what we need: A managed server where patches are applied automatically. Neither of us are Linux experts, and we want something secured for us without us having to worry about whether some patch breaks the system… Read the rest here
