CSS3 on Textboxes

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

Discovered this “bug”, and its workaround. When applying the -moz-border-radius and the -moz-box-shadow to an input type=”text”, it didn’t work  immediately with their default stylings. Once I  set the border and background styles manually, it displayed quite nicely. Hooray for Firefox!

CSS3 Demo

Tuesday, June 16th, 2009

I love web development. I like using new technologies, especially when it makes my job go more smoothly and produces better looking and functioning web sites. I did a little test of CSS3, just to see what all the buzz was about. Overall, I like where it’s headed, but it’s not ready for prime time yet. I will be happy when it is! Most of my observations are written up on the page, so check it out. Feel free to comment here and let me know your thoughts. Are you using it yet? Why or why not?

Check out my demo page (feel free to use a few browsers for the full effect): CSS3 Demo

Photoshop Tip: Move Layers Up and Down

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

Really quick, I just discovered this, quite by accident: ctrl+[ moves the active layer down one step in the layers palette and ctrl+] moves it up one step.

Gabe Harris, that's me

I love web development and I specialize in front-end development. If you think that means "just HTML" you can go play some place else on the internet, that's fine. While I'm neither an artsy designer nor an über-technical programmer, I am comfortable in both worlds. I work at the intersection of design and server-side programming with proficiency in HTML/CSS, JavaScript/Ajax (thumbs up for jQuery), ASP.NET, php (including Wordpress and CodeIgniter), Photoshop, and Illustrator.

I follow modern web design trends and techniques, but I'm not overly concerned with being bleeding edge. I browse the web with Google Chrome, I use Firefox for some of its development features sometimes, and I cringe at the thought of Internet Explorer (can you guess which browser renders this site best?)

When I'm not geeking out on the interwebs, I love playing with my kids and going fishing. Feel free to learn more about my experience, or see my work, or Facebook me, or follow me. Glad you stopped by!
