Enforcing _blank target on external links
admin : January 5, 2011 12:27 pm : Programming, Uncategorized, Website Design, website development, Website Hosting, WordpressWhen training new clients on how to edit their own websites in wordpress, I often mention the convention of ‘targeting blank’ when linking to another website. Adding the ‘target=”_blank”‘ tag to the link opens a new window when the user clicks the link, leaving the client website open in the background . Still, I know clients will forget this so I often add a little JavaScript code to make sure the links are always set to target blank:
Since I know all my wordpress sites include jQuery, I use that library to make the call as compact as possible:
CODE:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(“a[href^='http:']“).
not(“[href*='CLIENTDOMAIN.COM']“).
attr(‘target’,'_blank’);
});
what does it do? it finds all links that start with http:, then filters out (not) those links that go to the CLIENTDOMAIN.COM (their domain name), then it sets the ‘target’ attribute to ‘_blank’, linking all external links on the

Google DNS Hacked! at my local ISP
admin : January 14, 2010 12:26 pm : Internet, Website HostingUpdate: as of 10:50 DNS am is restored for google.com.
Its happened, the internet is dead!
Well, nearly dead anyway – today I was suddenly unable to access Google’s Analytics service around 10:10am MST. At first i thought it was a general failure, but other sites were still working. So I issued a whois command, clearly showing google’s dns has been hacked – at least at my ISP’s DNS server – 216.237.72.66.

Web Development Enters a New Era
admin : January 8, 2010 11:00 pm : website development, Wordpress Web publishing platforms such as wordpress have reached a maturity level that allows developers to deploy robust websites managed and maintained by clients. The developers role becomes focused on design and implementation, while content development is client driven. Modern libraries like jQuery and the Wordpress plugin mechanism mean that ideas and projects that used to taked days or weeks to implement and debug now take just moments to install and configure.
This website is a perfect illustration of the power of a modern wordpress website. For example, check out the page that lists Websites by Earthbound – this page incorporates several plugins to provide a beautiful flash slideshow (try the full screen mode), or a gallery view you can browse (try clicking an image to enlarge). Switching between the two views uses a tabbed interface. All these features are implemented using excellent, open source and commercial wordpress plugins. No custom coding was required!
Dreamweaver CS5 Beta
admin : December 19, 2009 10:51 pm : Dreamweaver, Website Design, website development As a developer, I’ve learned to live with and love Adobe’s Dreamweaver CS4. Like many developers I’ve discovered my way around Dreamweaver’s little quirks and limitations. Still I anxiously await word of the next release.
I can only hope for a better FTP client and a revamped interface. What other features do you think Adobe should add to the next release of Dreamweaver?
