Two favelets for developers: the Favelet Suite from Slayer Office works in most browsers. It is a set of tools that give you a lot of information about a web page, similar to that provided by the Developer Toolbar in Firefox; A bunch of useful favelets for one-click validation, screen sizing, script and CSS viewing — even language translation — in these Favelets for IE.
References to these are on the bulletin board CSS forum under “My favorite favelet”.
You don’t need an iPod to get podcasts. Listen to the Web Essentials podcasts on your PC or Mac using iTunes. I get some of my favorite radio programs this way.
Thanks so much for the link on the Apache + MySQL installation guide. How did you know I was having problems with getting Zen Cart running on my PC’s current configuration?
Cordially, David.
