    100% Height???

    "tables are evil" only if you use 473 of them on one page just for the perfect positioning of all those blank spacer gif's. They require too much code for too little style. Using one single table to layout the basic building blocks of a site is not evil at all.

    Burning programs from TV onto DVD. Is it legal?

    You may record by any means for personal use, but not for resale. You might be entitled to give/loan copies to friends, but not to rent them out. As soon as you make money from them or mass-distribute them, it becomes illegal. Pretty simple, no?

    How to sort it right with du -h | sort ????

    sort -n only looks at the numeric value, if you use du with the -h option the G, M and k screw up the results, i.e. 350 kB is more than 5 GB because 350 > 5. Drop the -h and use sort -nr the r flag means reverse, i.e. from biggest to smallest. Try du -d1 | sort -nr

    Super Hot Powerbook keeps melting feet!

    I use my PowerBook to the extreme of 24+ hours of compiling stuff at 100% processor usage with max 62 C. No damage to feet or wooden support. No active cooling system. So I think there is rather something wrong with your LRF (Little Rubber Feet) support, not with the PB.

    TeXShop: using MacOS's Preview

    Just a suggestion in case you didn't know: Using cmd+1 you can easily switch view between code and preview.

    Running out of HDD space

    You can try OmniDiskSweeper to find large folders and files. To make room on your HD, you could remove unnecessary localisations using Monolingual or Delocalizer.

    CSS navigation not working in IE for Mac

    Everything's fine here. The following testpage displayed correctly. Although I would design it differently, the code works: underlined appear onhover and the links are all clickable, in Safari as well as in IE/Mac, <html> <head> <style> <!-- body {background: black;} a:link {...

    Leopards rumours

    Wishlist? More like "pathetically obvious": new desktop backgrounds and screensavers? "Insider info": indeed! No, the real speculation will have to wait at least until after MWSF 06.

    CSS navigation not working in IE for Mac

    Do you really have a list with just one <li> element? That's odd ... What exactly is not working? Is the style applied wrongly? Can't you click the links? Is the position wrong? I do suppose you have a dark background, otherwise the white links won't really show up that much ...

    What is in your arsenal for doing a little spring cleaning/speeding up a mac?

    Perhaps I should ahve specified that I use the free version of DiskSweeper, which has the only drawback AFAIK that the big, red "delete" button does not work. I use it to identify the biggest files/folders and then take appropriate action, which is not necessarily always to delete the files. Of...
