Firefox2/Flash Player - Fix for Mac

Recently when I installed the new Firefox 2.0.04 the Flash Player 9 plug in no longer worked. After reinstalling both the problem was still there. No flash content could be viewed with Firefox, Flock, Netscape, although Shiira and Safari still worked fine. Upon the reinstall of the Flash plug in - things would be ok with Firefox until I re-started the application which resulted in a loss of the plug in and therefore no flash again. This started to get annoying until I found a fix. Basically just move the flash files out of /Library/Internet Plug-ins and into your own ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins folder then all works fine.

How good is your website?


As well as Sitescore, Webagogo and WebsiteGrader are useful tools for web developers and customers alike. All 3 of these tools take a look at the underlying code of your website as well as things like popularity, links, urls, accessibility, metadata etc. then provide you with a score or grade.

Although these results should to be taken with a pinch of salt sometimes because they are only one view of how things should be they still prove useful in the design and development process and are also a good development checklist. All in all, a must for any web designer.

939 Design - Redesign


I thought it was about time I came up with a fresh look for 939 Design. The old website design has been there for a year - that's a long time in the world of websites! The redesign is not just new css, there are a lot of new pages and content, plus the redesign gave me a chance to restructure and and improve the mark-up. As with every website it's a work in progress - hope you like it - any comments appreciated.

Web Design Survey

Designers, developers, project managers, Writers, editors, Information architects and usability specialists. People who make websites have been at it for more than a dozen years, yet almost nothing is known, statistically, about our profession. Who are we? Where do we live? What are our titles, our skills, our educational backgrounds? Where and with whom do we work? What do we earn? What do we value? You too can make a contribution!
