Quick link – 31st July

her recommendation was to stop using words like Products, Solutions, and Clients and start using words that actually describe what you offer. This way the search engine would list you higher for those terms.

A Link Labeled “Products” (or “Solutions” or “Clients”) is a Bad Idea (via boagworld)

Fixed 404 error for ie-css.htc

Posted on 21 May 2010, 3:35pm. leave a comment

I have been using the awesome .htc file to give IE6 support for border-radius.

However while checking network traffic with HTTP Watch I noticed it was making a request to mydomain.com/none, bit of a deal breaker when your replacing images for the corners with downloading your full 404 error page in the background.

I tracked the issue down to line 253

this.fillSrc = this.currentStyle.backgroundImage.replace(/^url("(.+)")$/, '$1');

As I understand it (and I suck at regex) if there is not a background-image declaration then it returns “none” therefore a simple check for it and changing the value to “” fixes it

This is what I changed it to:

this.fillSrc = ( this.currentStyle.backgroundImage.replace(/^url("(.+)")$/, '$1') == "none" ? "" : this.currentStyle.backgroundImage.replace(/^url("(.+)")$/, '$1') );

Simples
