12/13/2005 Entry: "fucking ie"

I fucking hate IE. I just spent the last night and morning (that's early morning and afternoon to you guys) trying to figure out why my page didn't work in IE. Early on I discovered how to take IE out of bugs mode and then I still had to fix the three pixel gap which was causing my floats to not fit into their parent float and just fuck everything up. Ironically I diagnosed that problem by resizing the main float down pixel by pixel until it worked. Then I cursed and swore trying to figure out why IE had three extra random pixels in my damn code. If that's not enough I had to use yet another CSS hack to fix the double left margin IE bug. Both of these bugs took me awhile to realize that my code was good and just IE that sucked. Eventually I got sick of trying to figure out what I was doing wrong and went to the wonderful world of Google. Google was good to me.

It's frusterating that the CSS hacks that you use to fix IE bugs simply work by exploiting OTHER IE bugs. Jesus Fucking Christ people, I had that shit working for Firefox a whole fucking day ago. Fucking IE and it's non-standard compliance can suck my nuts.

On a side note if any of you are having problems like these this site is one of many I used but may be the best. However, those of you that do read this that ARE web designers probably learned CSS years ago, and those of you that aren't I'm sure couldn't really give a crap. Y'know, I never had (many) of these problems with my trusty html 2.0 and 3.0. I am excited to finally have a page that validates, however. (run TRS, RSUSA, or this site through an HTML validator for a fun experience)

PS, Qehn or Dannye, does H count as a vowel in HTML? Should I have used "an" there?

Ah (or an Ahh, or an or an an Ahh).

I hate IE but some things won't work in Mozilla so I have to keep it around. The best analogy I have for evolution is the Windows OS. Evolution in a tinkerer, not a designer (as Francois Jacob of lac-operon said); it can only modify what is already there so we end up with amazingly awkward traits. I mean, what Idiot designed us so that we can breathe in food! Much easier to blame my great^2000 grandfish.

Anyway, starting with an awkward system to begin with, Microsoft just kept adding on, fixing, finding new problems, and so on. And we end up with a design that the DEVIL loves.

Or perhaps the DEVIL intelligently designed us. That might perhaps make more sense. And as for those who are so sure they "are going to meet their maker", well, lets hope they pack plenty of ice.

Oh my, I'll be sent to Heaven for sure for that remark.

Lecture-y goodness....

Posted by Sis @ 12/21/2005 12:41 PM PST

Some people use "an" before every "H". Generally, they aspirate their "H"s less noticeably than the Rest of Us.

Dannye and I will soon converge upon you and deliver a two-hour lecture! Hooray! You asked, after all.

Posted by Qehn @ 12/20/2005 05:13 PM PST

Yes, "an" is right because you are pronouncing it "aitch tee em ell" instead of the very strange "hitimil" or something like it was a real word. The letter "h" does indeed start with the vowel /ei/ (ay). Weird, huh?
