			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With much assistance of my good buddy <a href="http://www.scottnelle.com">Scott Nell&eacute;</a> we were able to create a function that will dynamically resize the window dimensions when using the JQuery Thickbox plugin.</p>
<p>This function simply scans the page and looks for those anchor tags that have the class of thickbox, takes in the href attribute value, and then changes the height and width variables to a ratio of the users viewport dimensions.</p>
<pre name="code" class="c-sharp">
<script type="text/javascript">
function thickboxResize() {

	var boundHeight = 530; // minimum height
	var boundWidth = 400; // minimum width

	var viewportWidth = (self.innerWidth || (document.documentElement.clientWidth || (document.body.clientWidth || 0)))
	var viewportHeight =(self.innerHeight || (document.documentElement.clientHeight || (document.body.clientHeight || 0)))

	$('a.thickbox').each(function(){
		var text = $(this).attr("href");

		if ( viewportHeight < boundHeight  || viewportHeight < boundWidth)
		{
			// adjust the height
			text = text.replace(/height=[0-9]*/,'height=' + Math.round(viewportHeight * .8));
			// adjust the width
			text = text.replace(/width=[0-9]*/,'width=' + Math.round(viewportWidth * .8));
		}
		else 
		{
			// constrain the height by defined bounds
			text = text.replace(/height=[0-9]*/,'height=' + boundHeight);
			// constrain the width by defined bounds
			text = text.replace(/width=[0-9]*/,'width=' + boundWidth);
		}

		$(this).attr("href", text);
	});
}

$(window).bind('load', thickboxResize );
$(window).bind('resize', thickboxResize );

</script>
</pre>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An odd thing happened to me as I was coding I got locked out of all my applications, no control with the keyboard or mouse.. odd. Anyways, I powered down the machine and booted in to safe mode where I was able to disable any startup items &#8211; then I rebooted normally, unfortunately I encountered a flashing icon with a graphic of the earth in it, nice. After a little research with my co-worker we found that on startup if you hold down the <strong>option + command + p + r</strong> keys, then listen for the startup chime for 3 times, then release this will clear out your PRAM. So, fortunately the machine seems ok, unfortunately I have to get back to work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I have finished another e-commerce project and thought I would add this one as this was my first e-commerce store using <a href="http://www.zen-cart.com/">Zen Cart</a>. I will have to say that this will definitely be the only e-commerce software that I will use to date &#8211; especially having recently build a store with Yahoo! Store and Magento (awesome, but way too slow on a shared host &#8211; so we had to take it down), not to mention I have also used other software like: e-commerce templates, Miva Merchant, and X-Cart. </p>
<p>Anyways, this project is for a stationery store in Shelburne, Vermont &#8211; check them out!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have been quite busy doing some contract work, so I thought I would display some of the projects that have been completed (all design work by <a href="http://edgarstewart.com">Edgar Stewart</a>):</p>
<h3>owater.com</h3>
<p><a href="http://owater.com"><img src="/i/owater.jpg" alt="owater"  /></a></p>
<p><strong>An all flash site, complete with audio and image gallery.</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p>We started making owater because we wanted something we could feel good about drinking everyday. At owater, we make water better. We take crisp, clean water and add purposeful enhancements and natural fruit flavor. It&#8217;s clear like water and refreshes like water with a taste that is unique and bright.</p>
<p>At owater, we don&#8217;t disguise water, we celebrate it.</p>

<h3>Bufala di Vermont</h3>
<p><a href="http://bufaladivermont.com"><img src="/i/bufaladivermont.jpg" alt="bufala di vermont"  /></a></p>
<p><strong>Yahoo store development / RTML / CSS Templates</strong></p>
<p>Bufala di Vermont, based in South Woodstock, Vermont, is the site of the first water buffalo farmstead creamery in the United States and has the largest and the best quality milking herd of water buffalo in North America. Although water buffalo milk and its products have been consumed around the world for thousands of years, there are only three water dairies in the United States. All Bufala di Vermont products are made in Vermont and are 100% pure water buffalo. Water buffalo, or bufala, are a completely different species than North American buffalo, which are actually bison. One of the greatest differences between these two animals is that water buffalo are an excellent source of dairy, as well as meat. Water buffalo produce approximately 15% of the world&#8217;s milk, primarily in Southeast Asia, South America and Italy. Italians have been using water buffalo for over 200 years where the meat and mozzarella are highly regarded delicacies.</p>

<h3>POD: Personal Oxygen Device</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.oxygenpod.com"><img src="/i/oxygenpod.jpg" alt="Oxygen POD"  /></a></p>
<p><strong>CSS Development, Volusion.com e-commerce software template build</strong></p>
<p>Pollution is adversely affecting the oxygen content in the air we breathe. Having access to a ready source of clean air is a source of comfort and vital for good health. To meet this need, the POD™ was born. The canned oxygen found in a POD™ is a rich source of clean fresh oxygen containing 2 liters of 95% oxygen and 5% nitrogen.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.oxygenpod.com">visit site</a></p>
<h3>Ink. Ink. Fine Stationery</h3>
<p>This project got delayed as the first build was utilizing Magento &#8211; unfortunately, the software from Magento is painfully slow on a shared hosting account server so we had to uninstall and change over the store to the ever popular <a href="http://zencart.com">Zen Cart</a> &#8211; project is moving along and I will post an update when the site is available.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At this point we all know that in order to get drop down menus, like Suckerfish, to hang over flash movies you will need to make the flash movie have a transparent value for the wmode parameter. I ran into an issue one time with drop down menus hanging over my SIFR headers. Here is the code that I used to fix the problem:</p>
<pre name="code" class="c-sharp">

&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
   //&lt;![CDATA[
  /* Replacement calls. Please see documentation for more information. */

if(typeof sIFR == "function"){

 // This is the preferred "named argument" syntax
sIFR.replaceElement(named({
sSelector:"body h1",
sFlashSrc:"/swf/fonts/fontname.swf",
sWmode: "transparent",
sColor:"#bc4313",
sLinkColor:"#bc4313",
sBgColor:"#ffffff",
sHoverColor:"#bc4313",
nPaddingTop:5,
nPaddingBottom:5,
sFlashVars:"textalign=left&amp;offsetTop=0"
}));

};

//]]&gt;
  &lt;/script&gt;</pre>
<p>Simply noting this piece of code in particular:</p>
<pre>
sWmode: "transparent"</pre>
