Mobile Browser Hack – Android, WebKit and Javascript/AJAX Trim() Functions!

Posted on January 31, 2010 by max

Here’s a quick note on mobile browsers like Android, WebKit. Based on my testing, it seems that string trim() function is not supported.

I was trying to do something like:

if(mystring.trim()==”0″) etc…etc…

That won’t work in mobile browsers for some reason but you can do something like it using match instead: if(mystring.match(/0/)) etc…etc…

I don’t know exactly why trim() isn’t supported fully on mobile browsers but for those of you who have problems with your website that works on desktop browsers but

Web Designer DIY – How to Design Drop-Down Menus!

Posted on March 25, 2009 by max

As a web designer, I can hardly find enough time nor space to put nicely designed drop-down menus.  Part of the reason why even this site lacks drop down menus is the fact that it would slow the site down greatly, as it’s slowing down too much due to too much information.

On the bright side, drop-down menus can come in handy for users to navigate your site.  There’s a lot of old javascript ones and the new CSS & AJAX ones that I like.

Smashing Magazine doesn’t get into the nitty gritty javascript and CSS but they do g

E-store DIY – How to Make an AJAX 1-Click Shopping Cart using Shopify E-Commerce!

Posted on December 23, 2008 by max

Okay, today I will show you how to make an AJAX a-Click shopping cart using Shopify.com, an e-commerce hosting company I have used over and over for last couple years.

First, let me tell you I have done my research on various different shopping carts as I have made shopping carts for different companies.

So far, the best and simplest shopping cart/hosting is Shopify.  I’ve tried X-cart and OScommerce but they need WAY too much customization.

Well, I have to tell you the truth now. The truth? I did get to test all the Nokia 8800 series at the Nokia booth couple weeks ago at Web 2.0 Expo 2008.

The reason why I didn’t post my pics or videos is partly I didn’t have time to and also because the web browsers on the new Nokia are so horrible. They are not even recommended for any kind of web browsi

HTC Diamond, is this for real now?

Posted on May 5, 2008 by max

Ever since the invent of iPhones, most other cellphone manufacturers have become obsolete in terms of “web browsing” capability.  HTC, usually based on Windows Mobile, have kept surprising me with their outdated mobile IE browser that does not support any of Web2.0 technologies including AJAX.

Well, as a previous owner of HTC, I hope they finally move onto another mobile OS platform like the Android from Google, or they will ultimately fail to capture attention of fast-movers like me.  The

Web2.0 Expo 2008 – Adobe Flex, will it be the next Web3.0?

Posted on April 24, 2008 by max

Adobe Flex, will it be the next generation technology for Web 3.0? It’s hard to tell at this point as SEO (Search Engine Optimization) for flash or flex has not proven to be great. Although you could make an opinion that flash or flex can be embedded in an HTML page, that’s still no where close to RSS and tags that blogs offer.

Today, I met when Steven (Stephen) Harris from WebSpiders.com, a Global IT Outsourcing company that specializes in development of Adobe Flex and AJAX web applications.

Steven was nice enough to show me a

Posted on April 24, 2008 by max

I was taking a smoke break in front of Web2.0 Expo and saw these people marching with funky white wigs on. Well, at first I thought they were protesting but one of the protestors did reach out and speak to me about what’s behind their “guerilla campaign” as seen in the video below.

I also scored close beta invitations to SpinScape.com. If you want the invite code for the private beta, simply watch the video here:
