File sharing debate - Update September 30, 2004
sharing.html
A couple additions to pros "Is copyright infringement wrong?" that list proposed U.S. laws
One addition to cons "Effects on industry / musicians" that references musicunited, which I already had in the works cited.
Added some more links to articles.
Note: When making changes to sharing.html, I will probably only post a blog message if it includes changes to the pros/cons, not for just article additions.

NumberFormat v1.5.3 - September 29, 2004
numberFormat.html
Between NumberFormat 1.5.1 and 1.5.2, I accidently took out the logic that checks for this.hasSeparators, so I fixed that bug. This meant setting setSeparators or setCommas to false didn't do anything.

New page - selectedIndex (extended example)
tutorial003.html
A followup to tutorial002.html, tutorial003.html includes a multiple select list. The code example does a few things, including toggling between a multiple/single select list.

Layout Update - September 23, 2004
The main index got a new look. Most other pages now have a new layout also.
For the main index, the number of page links was reduced, but the biggest change was in the switch from tables to a CSS layout.
The other pages at the site weren't quite ready for a CSS layout, so what I did was to reduce the clutter a little bit. They are pretty much the same, but the total download per page will be smaller.

NumberFormat - Update September 21, 2004
numberFormatPage2.html - In the Advanced Try It, I added a code output text area that shows the code being called based on the settings.
Change things like the currency settings or negative output, and watch the code change after clicking Try It.
Can also open up the full code in a new window by checking the box "Open full code example in new window". That will include the top-to-bottom syntax based on the same Try It settings.
2004-09-24 - Originally the pop-up example showed syntax that would format the number on the page load. I changed it so if someone tries that code, there will be a text box and button, and clicking the button will format the number that's in the text box.

Atom feed
Like RSS, Atom is a syndication feed. I won't go into too many details of what it is, but you can read the Blogger help explanation.
mredkj's atom feed is
http://mredkj.blogspot.com/atom.xml
Blogger automatically generates the XML file when I post to this blog, so it's a good way to get updates on what's going on at mredkj. How do you get the updates? With a newsreader. There are a bunch listed in the Blogger help explanation.
If you use Firefox, then you're in luck.
I just discovered today that Mozilla Firefox 1.0SR has a feature called Live Bookmarks. When I view mredkj.blogspot.com in Firefox, an RSS icon shows up in the bottom right hand corner of the browser. I clicked on that, and selected Subscribe to 'RSS', which prompted me to add it to my bookmarks. I'm not sure how often Firefox gets an updated feed, but there is a manual option to Refresh Live Bookmark.

KeyPress Validation - Update September 16, 2004
validate.html
Added a new example at the top of the page, and moved the original example to the bottom. The new example just blocks numbers from being typed in a text box, whereas the old example did... well I'm not sure what it did.
Also added a browser test chart that lists how browsers handled certain event syntax.

Beta Index Page
index_switch.html
I'm experimenting with CSS to format the layout, so things may look different across browsers.
If you want to help out, let me know your OS and browser (with version), and how well the page shows up. Compare to the following.

File sharing debate
sharing.html
The mredkj filesharing debate page lists pros and cons of P2P. The thesis, if you want to call it that, isn't to come to any conclusions. The point I originally had in putting up the page was to show how there are only so many arguments one can make. It started off as a short list. Well, that list kept getting bigger and bigger, and then I started adding lots of references to back up my simple arguments. Maybe I underestimated the debate just a little bit.
