Get straight to it - http://fmbip.com

Aside from the site’s slick interface and detailed statistics, fmbip let’s you create an account for free and send your client’s a custom URL to visit (such as findmebyip.com/username/your-tag) where this details information is obtained. You can then visit your account after your client has visited the URL and view information regarding their environment such as browser version, OS version, CSS3 support, HTML5 support, HTML5 form fields support and IP information. In fact as soon as you visit the link http://fmbip.com it will output your information for you straight away.

It’s the simplest and most effective way to gather information about selective user’s computers that I’ve come across. Get in to it.

Luckily the solution was simple for me and I found that solution after much search, on this website http://blog.rimann.org/2009/08/jquery-vs-ie7/. It turned out that all that needed to happen as to remove an extra comma from my jQuery code. While the other browsers just parse the code nicely, IE7 is not as forgiving.

Where I wrote:

$('.scroll-pane').jScrollPane(
    {
        showArrows:true,
        verticalDragMinHeight: 100,
        verticalDragMaxHeight: 300,
    }
);

I needed to have :

$('.scroll-pane').jScrollPane(
    {
        showArrows:true,
        verticalDragMinHeight: 100,
        verticalDragMaxHeight: 300
    }
);

I hope this helps someone from flipping out from frustration and eating their own face. Or worse…http://youtu.be/YersIyzsOpc

Congrats to all the artists for still getting involved in these comps, it’s good to see some real talent and legitimate artists still roaming through the streets of Melburn.

The author says this about the permission increase:

“In order to allow cross-origin XMLHttpRequests for the pulling back XML and XSL in the XML Tree Transformation page action, I had to up the permissions in the extension. Otherwise, the transformation tool would only allow HTTP URLs that originate in the same domain that the URL in the address bar is in. See http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/xhr.html.”

This isn’t really a problem, as all you have to do it hit cancel and you’re in the clear. But after I’ve spent countless hours cleaning the shit (viruses, spyware, malware) off people’s systems that accumulates because they don’t read dialogue boxes, I can easily see how people would not even realised that they have allowed this extensions to access everything from bank account info right up to the video clip of the ex “playing” with the Bengal Tiger.

Shame on Google Chrome for allowing an extensions to do this, shame on the developer for thinking this would work, and shame on mates for showing me that damn Bengal Tiger video.

M.K. Hume Website

At the time of the new website launch, M.K. Hume had three books published from the Arthurian Trilogy: Dragon’s Child, Warrior of the West and The Bloody Cup, with the Merlin Trilogy in the works.
This was a very enjoyable project to work on, with most of our meetings spent drinking beer at the local and sharing stories. I wish Marilyn, Mike and Jolene all the best in their success and I look forward to the next opportunity to work with them.
