Javascript with Restraint
grayside — Mon, 09/07/2009 - 22:00
Please exercise restraint with Javascript. I, like many others, surf the web with dozens of tabs open to preserve my various trains of thought. Every extra snippet of javascript you use to populate static content or add CSS-friendly rollover affects accelerates the heat-death of my Firefox memory usage.
There are other great points about Accessibility, Degradation, and so forth around the web, but this is the pet peeve that’s causing me troubles at the moment.
Tasteful, elegant restraint. It’s also good for bright colors and cymbals- unless your website is meant to be a-rockin’.

Field Permissions Plus: Complex Access Schemes
grayside — Wed, 09/09/2009 - 14:09
This post refers to Field Permissions Plus 1.x
This Drupal module provides View Own and Edit Own permissions for CCK fields. As a necessary step, Field Permissions Plus supercedes CCK’s Content Permissions module so the View/Edit [all] permissions it provides play nice. With this module, if you give a role the ability to View a field, or to View Own a field, they will be able to see it.
Field Permissions Plus: 2.x Already?!

Field Permissions Plus has barely been released, but FPP 6.x-2.x-dev is already making progress.

This Drupal module provides a more flexible framework from granting and restricting access to the content of CCK fields.
