A short update

May 5th, 2009 by Stargazer

As I was already working on my server machines, I have updated the links section of my blog – just to make sure they’re up to date and in a good shape. So don’t hesitate looking at them again.

IE6 blues

March 2nd, 2009 by Stargazer

It’s one if the most common problems with the old internet explorer that it handles the box model in a wrong way and I have been cursing for hours due to that problem. To be able to do some workarounds, Microsoft offers browser switching for their browser (IE only) for loading different stylesheets:
