Steve Workman's Blog

Did you know, HTML 5, the spec that will be completed in 2022, but with some bits available now, will have a whole new set of form elements designed to make complex forms available natively from the browser.

This is the first in a short series about my blog re-design.

Of the upcoming CSS3 modules that are coming into common use: selectors, borders, text etc, the multi-column layout module interests me the most.

If you're like me, with an eye on Google Reader even over the holidays, you won't have failed to notice the upcoming Apple event at which the Apple touch-screen tablet, likely to be called iSlate or the Slate, will be announced.

I've started using Google Wave recently (thanks to a colleague of mine, James McQuarrie) and up-front, I'll say that I don't get it.

I consider myself quite a forward-looking chap.

When I created this blog, I wanted it to be about user interfaces, CSS, and maybe a bit of client script and design.

CSS has gone through many trends and phases in web development.

Just a quick note about a new Twitter client - Destroy Twitter, that has quickly replaced Twhirl as my client of choice.

Internet Explorer 8 has now been unleashed upon the Windows world to a small ripple of applause and a snigger from every other browser manufacturer.

Today, Jonathan Snook posted about CSS Matrix Layouts, a proposal for a third way for creating advanced layouts in CSS3, with Advanced Layouts and Grid Layouts being the others.

Last week, Apple announced the Safari 4 beta with a whole host of updates and enhancements.

A colleague of mine and I were discussing the current state of the internet, CSS3 and IE being behind the rest of the browsers in terms of standards adoption.

I've been playing with iPhone development for a month now and I've understood the concepts and am ready to make my first app, but I haven't.

iPhone development is the forefront of "cool" programming.

I've been using the brilliant Last.fm service for nearly two years now, during which time it's introduced me to loads of new artists.

Have you tried registering for the iPhone developer programme?

This week, Roger Johansson of 456 Berea Street posted about unique IDs in web applications.

A few days ago I read about PhoneGap, an easy way to make an iPhone application using the web.

As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm planning a mobile web toolkit to replace iUI, but what would you want in it that's not in iUI already?

In the early days of the Internet, web sites were for gathering and displaying information.

Fantastic news!

Recently, I've been working on an iPhone web app for my employer (internal, so I can't share).

I've just come across this brilliant CSS 3 technique from Ajaxian on how to do web animations.

Just a short post to say you can now follow me on twitter.

Entering data into a web site is possibly the most common task that is performed.

Just a quick message to say that Firefox 3 will be released today at 10am PDT (6pm BST if you're in the UK like me).

Opera 9.5 is has now been released.

Recently, I've been asked a lot of questions about CSS and my commitment to it.

With the impending release of Firefox 3, a new chapter to "browser wars" is upon us.

I’ve been using Opera since it reached version 9.0 in 2006.

Opera Dragonfly, the opera web browser's developer tools, were released into alpha yesterday.

Welcome everyone to SteveWorkman.com!

With the release of Internet Explorer 8 beta 1 this week, MS debuted a few new features for the browser.

Once upon a time, about 6 years ago, the internet had just started to recover from an almightly hangover called the dot com boom.

A few weeks ago, the Camden Roundhouse played host to one of Britain's great underestimated bands.

Wandering around London today, I found myself in the Apple store on Regents Street, firstly to find out who's supporting Athlete tonight in Camden (Boy Kill Boy was the answer), but secondly to test a rumour I heard.

Whilst at work today, I, like almost everyone else in the office, was being updated in some way/shape/form on the Macworld keynote speech, in which lord Jobs announced a number of products including the Macbook Air.

Greetings!

Welcome to the first update in months!

I am very proud to announce the immediate availability of USEv4, the latest generation of sports clubs websites.

Update 2010: This method is still valid but has been replaced with "Facebook Connect".

First, sorry for not updating this blog in the past month.

I thought I'd write about what I've learned so far with the development of USEv4.

Well, I've been hard at the re-design for 2 days.

In mid-May, just before the start of exams, I created a survey for the members of the Uni-Sport.org network.

Good afternoon everyone, It's a whole week since I last posted a teaser for the new Steel-Software.com design, and after a significant shrinking process (the whole design didn't really work if it didn't fit on one page without scrolling) the website is now

Good morning folks.

I've been having some fun today.

Well, facebook have certainly shaken things up a bit haven't they.
