“In a world of images, words sometimes don’t seem to have as much value as appearances. But what about the appearance of words? While most of us don’t think about typography, beyond choosing among the preinstalled fonts in our home computers, consider an up-and-coming font, like Bello. Bello recently won a best new ”display font” award from the Type Directors Club, and is on pace to sell a respectable 160 licenses in its first year.”

“To solve the javascript issue the styled form controls needed to be dynamically inserted into the page using a javascript. No javascript, no change. Original experiments with innerHTML and regExp failed miserably and proved inelegant. However I am still using innerHTML to produce the styled buttons in Internet Explorer. To solve the CSS problem the styled form controls needed to be invisible with CSS disabled, and likewise the unstyled controls needed to be visible.”

“Just because you’ve used lots of software doesn’t mean you can write code. Just because you’ve been in lots of buildings doesn’t mean you can be an architect. And just because you’ve logged a million frequent flyer miles doesn’t mean you can fly a plane.”
