News’n’Links’n’Drama:
12:00 Don’t call it Standard Markdown
Q & A:
16:07 How do you prefer attaching JavaScript events to elements?
25:58 I am having a hard time finding a way to bridge my methods between front-end javascript and back-end php/mysql. Is there a good way to bridge these technologies?
32:36 Is there a foundry or type designer you rely on to provide consistency, or do you assume the well known ones are all pretty much the same quality? Is there a real incentive to hosting yourself?
44:04 Is there a ‘best-practices’ way to direct WordPress to run any CSS and JS from plugins in the footer?
53:10 I have a friend that wants to make a quick buck throwing together sites with Drupal themes. How do you both precisely articulate what is, and what is not “professional” practice?
