Should JS be able to send XMLHttpRequest without Origin: and Referer: headers?
27 May 2013 | 3:32 amI would like to change and simplify the XMLHttpRequest spec (while it's still possible, AFAIK this part isn't widely implemented yet) BUT I want as much input as possible to ensure it's not insane to change it.The question I'm pondering is regarding the anonymous mode in the current spec.

Exit Presto, stage right
13 Feb 2013 | 2:43 amSoftware should probably be seen as merely a collection of bits and bytes - ones or zeros, or on/off states. We use our imagination and tools to bundle these bits and bytes into executables - and then some magic occurs in human-computer interaction that lets us perceive software as an entity, name it, interact with it - even impose personality on it. A magic of the mind, perhaps. I guess the emotional, imaginative aspects of this process to some extent explains the pseudo-religious nature of some users' belief in or attachment to specific software. (Hello, Mac-vs-PC or… -

Microsoft sends two million NULL characters, hangs Opera
12 Nov 2012 | 3:23 amA bug report came in late Friday/Saturday night saying loading Microsoft's Skydrive was making Opera hang and use 100% CPU. I had a quick look on Saturday, and to my amazement it was neither a JavaScript nor a plugin-related issue; the freeze would still be there with both disabled. Family duties prevented further investigation.Today, I know what the problem is: some strange bug in the Microsoft backend sends a load of unexpected NULL characters - more than two million of them right in the middle of the source code. This sounds (and is) bizarre for a high-profile production service, so… -
CSS text-transform and clipboard functionality
10 Nov 2012 | 2:25 amOver at Twitter, some of us are trying to have a 140-character debate on how to copy text with text-transform applied. If, for example, a website specifies p{text-transform:uppercase} the text inside paragraph tags will appear in upper case even though in the source code it may be lower case or mixed case. If you copy this upper case-transformed text, what should end up on the clipboard? To test your current browser's behaviour, try to copy this text and see if you get lower-case or upper-case on the clipboard.WebKit has fixed a bug saying that the copy operation should copy the case as…

Sound off! What are the top 3 missing things from the new Opera?

It is a completely new browser. The user interface was rewritten from scratch, and is now native on all platforms. Mac users in particular should notice that Opera 15 blends in far better with their OS than previous versions.Of course, this is just the start. Opera 15 is the foundation we're going to build the future Opera on. This means that the basics need to be solid. Creating a new user interface from scratch is a huge task, so we… -

Remotely debugging Opera for Android
20 May 2013 | 11:05 pmNow that Opera for Android is out, you'll sometimes need to debug it, as there are differences in Standards support between Opera and Chrome for Android and Chrome on Android 4+. Because current and future Opera for Android releases are based on Chromium, we can't use the current Opera desktop releases to connect to them (wait for Chromium-based Opera desktop releases for that). So here's how to connect Opera for Android to another Chromium-based desktop browser for remote debugging. -

Touchy-Feely road crossings
29 May 2013 | 6:41 pmAccording to the BBC article The secret button at pedestrian crossings, many pedestrian crossings have a feature which lets you feel when the light turns green, in the form of a discreet spinning cone on the underside of the control box, so even deaf-blind people can use them! Strange that this feature isn't widely publicised, I wonder if most blind and deaf-blind people know about it or not? -
For laughs
28 Jan 2013 | 12:23 pmThis probably doesn't quite fall under the category of "usability" but it is funny and does have to do with user-interface. It's not the actual purchase interface, so I guess it doesn't really matter but what made it funny from a design perspective was that the blue screen of death error references "watchdog.sys" -- which is probably designed to detect when the system locks up (like a BSOD) and restart it. So if you're watchdog is broken....While it probably doesn't interfere with purchases, it is sort of embarrassing.:lol: -
The Number One Sucky Thing About Computers

Web control ad keyword blocking preventing www.clarks.co.uk working
8 Jun 2013 | 2:10 pmI'm guessing that something in the improvenet list is causing clarks.co.uk not to work. The replace with [AD] option in Web Control causes every item to be out of stock and you can't choose sizes. Even if I add an exclusion for www.clarks.co.uk it still doesn't work. Can this be fixed, or do I need a permanent exclusion (and if so.. any ideas what?) -

Microsoft Adds Pointer Events To Firefox
18 Jun 2013 | 10:20 amBack in 2012, Microsoft has started working on Pointer Events, a new web standard (which is already marked as a Candidate Recommendation by W3C) that would allow web sites to accept inputs from quite a few different sources, such as a touchscreen and pen, has now gained even more traction. Just before year’s end, Microsoft [...] -
Google To Retire Chrome Frame
17 Jun 2013 | 5:32 amJanuary 2014 is the date. Back in 2009, Google launched Chrome Frame, a plug-in that aimed to modernize the older versions of Internet Explorer by bringing WebKit capabilities to Microsoft’s platform, although they weren’t particularly happy about that. The good news? Thanks to competition, web browsers (especially IE) got so much better over the last [...] -

Apple Reveals Safari 7

What kind of crazy features did they add this time? Unfortunately, most of these are just catching [...] -

Jim Chen: Now you can debug Fennec on x86
18 Jun 2013 | 3:14 pmThe Android GDB (JimDB) Wiki and pre-built binaries now include instructions and support for Android on x86. Not only is it useful on the growing number of x86 devices, it is also useful on the x86 emulator included in the Android SDK (for developers without access to a device). Presently, the x86 version is entirely separate form the ARM version - you would need both versions in different directories if you have devices on both platforms. The updated GDB also has limited support for on-demand decompression on Android. If you've been noticing random seg faults when debugging Fennec, the… -
constanton: YouTube HTML5 Switch v0.1.7 & News
18 Jun 2013 | 12:47 pmHello! Long time no see! I’ve been busy outside the blog-sphere and I’ve got some news to share. First of all, I upgraded my Firefox Add-on to version 0.1.7. So here is the link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-html5-switch/ All in all, the important addition is that you can now use the hotkey Control+Y instead of pushing the button on the toolbar. Plus, I think it now has no other issues for most new versions of Firefox. I need to point out that I get most of the help from the SDK’s documentation which is great, but, to anyone interested, don’t hesitate to… -
Blake Winton: Drawing lines with CSS.
18 Jun 2013 | 12:00 pmOne of the things I’m working on as part of my job1 at Mozilla is a tool to make it easy for designers to create mockups that are linked to live bugs, similar to the ones at Are We Pretty Yet. Now, I’ve got the background showing up, and the bugs overlayed on top of it, but as it stands, I’m requiring the designers to draw the lines connecting the bugs to the various areas in the mockup right on the mockup itself! This is obviously a fairly terrible idea, since it makes it much harder than it should to move stuff around after the fact, and requires a ton of up-front planning when… -
