DrupalCon DC 2009: Follow Up From Advanced Theming Techniques Presentation

The Advanced Theming Techniques presentation that Bevan and I gave was very well received. Thanks to everyone in the room for helping keep me comfortable. Don't know if you noticed, but I was pretty nervous at the beginning. It was my first DrupalCon and my first time presenting in front of such a large group. Because the Drupal community ROCKS, I soon felt quite comfortable.

New Drupal Podcast: DrupalNews

Podcast available here In a quest to get myself caught up on what's happening in the Drupal community from a high-level standpoint, I realised something. It can be really hard keeping track of everything that's going on. So I decided to do something about it.

Using CSS to wrap long fieldset legends

In a recent project I encountered a very long legend in a fieldset from a node add/edit form. Instead of wrapping, it forced its way into the right-hand sidebar and was generally causing a mess of the layout. In looking into this I discovered that legends don't wrap by default, and so I needed to toggle that behavior via CSS. You can do it globally using the following CSS
legend {
  white-space: normal;
}

Themers: Put IE6 to pasture?

If you're a themer, you know you want it. You crave for it every day. It's a hunger, never relenting, pushing you closer each day towards the brink. You'd consider doing just about anything -- legal or otherwise -- to end the agony of using Internet Explorer 6.
