FLEX On jQuery: The Relative Power Of Link Elements
Posted on Mar 3, 2010 at 10:41 AM
What about a jQuery developer who wants to help you learn? I could easily see this leading to a more well constructed JS framework. PLEASE make sure you add data-binding in this framework! That's one of the things that I miss most about JS work vs Flex. Data binding rules.... read more »

People! Please Stop Using Single Quotes!
Posted on Feb 19, 2010 at 5:26 PM
@Thomas... The xHTML spec simply says that all attributes must be quoted, it does not say whether single, or double, should be used: http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#h-4 .4 So it just comes down to personal preference. Wha... read more »

People! Please Stop Using Single Quotes!
Posted on Feb 19, 2010 at 5:21 PM
Do you still feel the same way about single quoting? I prefer it because you don't have to hit the shift button to get them like you do with double quotes. Plus it's easier to tell what type of quote it is when working with smaller point size editors.... read more »

Using Javascript's Function() Constructor To Deserialize JSON Data
Posted on Dec 10, 2009 at 4:25 PM
That's pretty sweet. I'd like to see some speed tests done on this code Ben. Wonder if you could just create a "deserializeJSON() method once and reuse it rather than creating a new one each time.... read more »

ColdFusion CFMailParam's New "Content" Attribute Is Awesome
Posted on Oct 6, 2009 at 9:32 AM
I took a look at this after your post on Twitter (thanks for suggesting it). I don't think it's possible to do what I need though by using this tag. I have a file that exists in memory and I'd like to attach that to an email without first having to save it to disk. It's essentially an on de... read more »

The Regular Expression Cookbook By Steven Levithan And Jan Goyvaerts
Posted on Jul 27, 2009 at 9:55 AM
Awesome Ben! I LOVE regular expressions. They make even basic text editing quicker, and more painless. I use them to quickly parse through large amounts of text, code, or the like. One of my personal favorites: [ \t]+$ I hate having tabs or spaces on blank lines, or at the end o... read more »

jQuery Data() Method Associates Data With DOM Elements - SWEET ASS SWEET!
Posted on Jul 2, 2009 at 9:20 AM
Gerald... Those two lines aren't selecting anything. They're creating a new jQuery object that Ben uses later in his code. You see in the very next line, he does a jLink.data() call. He's storing data in the anchor tag for future reference. Then later he does jListItem.append(jLink) w... read more »

If this is the one I'm thinking of, they've got CRAZY challenges. One that I saw was them lifing a 200 pound slab of metal in the shape of the African continent. They had to move it from laying on the ground to a sort of podium, along with a barrel, and some other increasingly heavier items.... read more »

Data-Driven CSS Style Sheets Using ColdFusion
Posted on May 5, 2009 at 10:03 AM
Ben... It's worth noting that using either the 2md or 3rd methods listed above will prevent the browser from caching your CSS. This means that ColdFusion will be required to generated the CSS each time a page containing that code is requested. In the 2nd example, this reduces SEO to s... read more »

Making My ColdFusion Tags More Consistent
Posted on Feb 13, 2009 at 3:46 PM
I'm okay with all of these changes except for you putting trailing slashes on your unclosed CF tags (cfset, cfqueryparam, etc). It's UTTERLY unnecessary and it just irritates the bejeezus out of me. ColdFusion is NOT HTML code and shouldn't be treated as such.... read more »
