IE Death March

So today I dropped support for IE6. Infact, if you’re using IE6, you won’t even see this post, you’ll see a blue screen of death. IE Death March is (I think) a brilliant idea and please help me and many others to start an internet revolution.

Sub pixel problems in CSS

John Resig has done a bit of research into what happens in different browsers when you do things like setting the width of a div to 25% when it’s parent is 100 pixels. It’s quite an interesting read, and might help to explain why layouts break in different ways in the various browsers.

Me on the intertubes

It wouldn't be right to have a web site, be a nerd, and not take this opportunity for a bit of shameless pluggery.

If you like all these weird and magic internet page things, you should try Coaster Nerd, Oxford Bloggers or, if you'd really like some unexplainable sourcery, is it the weekend yet.

Also you should follow me on Twitter ;)

Where to find me

I can be found fairly regularly at Oxford Geek Nights, OxTuttle and other general nerding out activities in and around Oxford.

I am also often found in my natural habitat which is anywhere that you can find an adreneline machine. I frequent English theme parks more often than is healthy, and take trips abroad to sample foreign rides.

Any good 3D films out at the moment? 1 week ago

These posts were written at the time of writing and may not still be accurate or reflect my opinions any more. In fact, they may not even be correct or representative at the time of writing. You see, when I write, I just write. I don't do that thing which they always told you to do at school and plan what you want to write first. Because of this, there will almost certainly be a load of typos, grammar errors and incorrect facts and references. If this makes you feel queasy, I apologise that you had to get to the bottom of the page to read this, and hope that some day, you'll learn to forgive me.

What's this site?

Slightlymore started off all too formally for my liking. In the depths of the archives, you'll find tutorials. However if you read the more recent posts, you'll find them a lot more playful and about fun and interesting stuff.
