A Follow-Up to PHP Templating

28.2.2020
Not long ago, I posted about PHP templating in just PHP (which is basically HEREDOC syntax). I'm literally using that technique for some super basic templating I needed to do on this very WordPress site. The main pushback was that this kind of thing can be an XSS vulnerability. In my case, it's...

Let’s Say You Were Going to Write a Blog Post About Dark Mode

26.2.2020
This is not that blog post. I'm saying let's say you were. This is not a knock any other blog posts out there about Dark Mode. There are lots of good ones, and I'm a fan of any information-sharing blog post. This is more of a thought exercise on what I think it would take to write a really great...

Solving Sticky Hover States with @media (hover: hover)

18.2.2020
Mezo Istvan does a good job of covering the problem and a solution to it in a blog post on Medium¹. If you tap on something that has a :hover state but you don't leave the page then, on a mobile device, there is a chance that :hover state "sticks." You'll see this with stuff like jump-links used...

Web Component for a Code Block

18.2.2020
We'll get to that, but first, a long-winded introduction. I'm still not in a confident place knowing a good time to use native web components. The templating isn't particularly robust, so that doesn't draw me in. There is no state management, and I like having standard ways of handling that. If...

What’s the Difference Between Width/Height in CSS and Width/Height HTML attributes?

24.1.2020
Some HTML elements accept width and height as attributes. Some do not. For example: <!-- valid, works, is a good idea --<img width="500" height="400" src="..." alt="..."<iframe width="600" height="400" src="..."</iframe<svg width="20" height="20"</svg<!-- not valid...

22.1.2020
January 15th, 2020 was the day Microsoft Edge went Chromium. A drop in browser engine diversity. There is a strong argument to be made that's not good for an ecosystem. Looked at another way, perhaps not so bad: Perhaps diversity has just moved scope. Rather than the browser engines themselves...

Third-Party Components at Their Best

16.1.2020
I'm a fan of the componentization of the web. I think it's a very nice way to build a website at just about any scale (except, perhaps, the absolute most basic). There are no shortage of opinions about what makes a good component, but say we scope that to third-party for a moment. That...

January 14 was the best trading day of the year for many cryptocurrencies, which saw double or even triple-digit percentage gains.

Debunking the Myth: Accessibility and React

15.1.2020
I find it notable when the blog of a major accessibility-focused company like Deque publishes an article called Debunking the Myth: Accessibility and React. Mark Steadman is essentially saying if a site has bad accessibility, it ain't React... it's you. The tools are there to achieve good...

Things you can do with a browser in 2020

10.1.2020
I edit a good amount of technical articles about the web, and there is a tendency for authors to be super broad in their opening sentence, like "What we're able to do on the web has expanded greatly over the years." I tend to remove stuff like that because it usually doesn't serve the article well...
