exhaustion makes you do things

For the last few days I’ve been working diligently to have to the new bi.sign site ready to go online on it’s appointed date, June 15th. Some frills had to be pushed back for the next minor version, nevertheless it was a little bumpy at the end. As soon as I marked off that last todo item, cd2.5 jumped in to view with the due date June 30. I looked at the small list of items:

1. javascript re-write for Mootools 1.2
2. re-implement switch like functionality
3. css updates/better fonts

Then added one, not totally useless print style and started stepping through each one until they were all done.

mootools 1.2, or: lucky me

As luck would have it Mootools 1.2 was very recently released. Even luckier for me “javascript re-write for Mootools 1.2” basically meant hooking up an empty script file and Mootools core file.

switch…again

“Re-implement switch” basically meant, re-write it for MT 1.2. Fortunately, switch is like the easiest thing ever. I added non-destructive body class removal in this version and what I think is even simpler code.

better fonts, or: you better recognize

Firefox is a font jerk, Opera is a bitch, Safari is a god.

printable

Not totally uselesss is quite a bit different than attractive so if you do try to print something out don’t bother expecting something pretty to come from the printer. The pretty printing will probably show up in 2.6.
