Ontario Science Centre site launches; OJA deadline
Launched the new Ontario Science Centre site today, after spending a couple of hours trying to figure out some weird style sheet interpretations in IE 5.0 for Windows (praise ELEMENT/* */{ attribute: value }). This morning, I was able to fix a weird style sheet interpretation unique to IE 5.0 for the Macintosh. I'm now struggling with a buggy JavaScript engine in IE 4.0 for the Mac that creates endless loops when trying to detect if the page is framed (partial solution).
Now for something completely different:
The deadline for the Online Journalism Awards, being presented by the Online News Association&Columbia Graduate School of Journalism, is closing in (its July 16, 2001). If last year's winners are any indication, the OJAs are indeed picking some of the best (traditional) online journalism out there. This year, one of the two new categories they've added could produce an interesting (non-traditional) winner: "Innovative Presentation of Information".
Winners will be announced October 27, 2001…presuming there's anyone left to receive the awards.
