Portfolioso.com Back Online

Wow, it’s been over a month since my site was last updated. And what a great day for portfolioso.com to be back online: the one year anniversary, and my birthday! Well, sorry that I bored all of you by not updating for over a month. I missed it a lot – there’s so much to write about.

I’ve been so busy with school work and never got a chance to fix some minor things that needed attention, which is why it took so long. But now all is well, so I finally got a chance to fix things gradually throughout the month. The forums still need a little work, but they’re almost ready. It won’t be long!

Layout Bug Fixed

Yet another example of why Internet Explorer is BAD… I never use it, so when I do html and php, everything looks excellent in Firefox. Then I look at my site in IE every once in a while and notice things are messed up. IE really is a pain. This is like the 20th time I had to fix my site because it wasn’t displaying properly in IE.

So what was wrong? The comments section looked horrible. In Firefox, each comment was in a grey box on the black background. In Internet Explorer, every single comment was mashed together and ugly. There was no easy way to distinguish. So I had to waste 20 minutes redoing the php and html to make it work in both browsers. GRR. Well it’s fixed now and is all pretty, so that’s all that counts.

I also tweaked the php code to make it easier for me to read and edit. Oh and I need to fix one more minor IE bug where there is an extra line break above the search box.

Edit: Fixed the search box bug in IE. It was a bitch, but it is all happy now!
