DuCharme’s XLink Example

Tim, wrt your essay on linking, see Bob DuCharme’s XLink example from 2003, most browsers now support this, and you could forgo the XSLT piece if someone wanted to make it a pure JavaScript/DOM solution.

Now that’s validation. And if you’re on MacOS X and haven’t checked out Todd’s XML tools, do so.

The State of Screen Scraping

Chris Casciano wrote an AppleScript wrapping xsltproc that reads an hAtom page, applies the hAtom2Atom.xsl transform, and hands the result back to NetNewsWire. Note: Scott Reynen points out that the script doesn’t work with NNW 2.1 [...]

The Old Ones Migrate

Jeffrey Zeldman moved his “daily report” from hand-edited markup to WordPress. Another of the class of 1998 who’ve moved from handcoded or homebrew to one of the major blogging tools. Rafe migrated his homebrew system to Movable Type last year. Rebecca Blood switched from hand-edited markup to Movable Type at the start of 2006. I [...]
