Web Development, Design & Programming

Research indicates that frequent visitors may be the ones to get the most advantage of breadcrumbs.

It is probably not worth the effort to include breadcrumbs unless you can show that your Web site’s users use them frequently, either to navigate the site, or to understand the site’s hierarchy.

Here you can find out how Adaptive Images works, how to install it, how to customise it for your needs, and learn about the limitations of the approach.

Installation One important thing: do not over-write any existing .htaccess file. If you have one already, back it up. Feeling up to it? Excellent

If you already have an .htaccess file, open it in a text editor and add the code from the supplied file into your existing one. To support Retina displays use the alternate JS.

Before starting your next project take a step back and do the groundwork. In this post we look at how to research your objectives and why its so important.

There are a few reasons why smiley is a better solution: Webkit+Font Management software can mess up local references, like turning glyphs into A blocks.  (crbug.com/33173) On OS X, Font Management software may alter system settings to show a dialog when trying to access a local() font that's accessible outside of Library/Fonts. More detail on my bulletproof post. (crbug.com/29729) Font Explorer X is also known to mess up other stuff in Firefox: bugzil.la/531771 Although it's unlikely, you could reference a local() font which is completely different than what you think it is. (Typophile post on different fonts, same name) At the very least its a risk, and you're ceding control of the type to both the browser and host machine. This risk may not be worth the benefit of avoiding the font download. These are all pretty edge case issues, but it's worth considering. FontSquirrel has already made the smiley syntax the new default in the Generator, and you should use it going forward as well.
