Web Site Updates
I made a number of improvements to the website this weekend. The major change is that I moved from the in-box commenting in Graffiti to Disqus. I’ve been having issues with the comment system for a couple of months, and Disqus adds quite a bit of functionality. I was able to port over all of the comments with metadata intact, but, trackbacks and pingbacks are currently still going against the local database. I’ve tested in IE9 and Firefox 5/6, but, I haven’t validated other browsers. Let me know if there are any layout bugs or other issues.
For the curious, Release Notes:
Fixes
- Fixed CSS bugs causing all text to be highlighted on mouse-over in comment area
- Fixed HTML bug causing footer not to span complete page in some scenarios
- Fixed CSS bug causing highlighted code to be indented
