JosephBauser.net Stage 1 Release!

Well, JosephBauser.net Stage 1 is completed.

Now with 100% more Web 2.0!

This means that the layout is finalized, the navigation works, and the javascript is almost where I want it.

In addition the application degrades gracefully, so those of us with old browsers can still navigate just fine.

(Don’t believe me? Turn off javascript and see for yourself!)

I welcome comments on the design and layout, but please keep comments about color preferences to yourself. Keep in mind though that while all suggestions will be considered very few if any will be implemented.

On my plate for Stage 2 release are the following items (In order of importance):

  1. Automated testing for application controllers and models
  2. Further testing into accessability compliance
  3. XHTML 1.0 Strict testing
  4. Modified admin UI to make my own life easer
  5. Support for categories in the projects page.
  6. Update the projects page with all of my projects up to date.

JosephBauser.net now with 100% more Web 2.0!

    Nifty!

    I dig it. The JS works really well. You’re all AJAX-tastic now :) It appears to be valid XHTML to my browser, but if you wanted to do some testing (for #3 on your list) and haven’t gotten it already, I found the “HTML Validator” fox plugin to rock pretty hard.

    Slap on “Web Developer” and “FireBug” and your coding will go mad fast. You probably have all of those plugins already anyway though :[ oops.

    Anywho, I dig the site, keep up the good work!

    I’m glad you like it!

    I started testing the XHTML Validation the other day and I’m almost there. All the pages except for the blog validate correctly.

    This is where I’m running into a little trouble.

    The blog page on JosephBauser.net grabs its data directly from CoderJoe.net.

    CoderJoe.net Validates XHTML 1.0 Transitional
    JosephBauser.net Validates XHTML 1.0 Strict

    The transitional elements from CoderJoe.net’s entries break XHTML 1.0 Strict on the blog page. :(

    I’ll figure something out, but suggestions are appreciated. ;)
