add a commentjquery challenge of the day September 7, 2010 6:19 pm
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : CSS, Daily Life, JavaScript, jQuery, Programming, TechnologyAnd now for something completely different…
Let’s say you have a table that could have infinite rows. The table has an id but none of the other elements (ie. we won’t be traversing by id). The column to the furthest right of the row has an anchor tag in the for of an <a href> There are no other anchors on that row. What I want to do is when the anchor tag is clicked, have the <a href> text in the row above the clicked on turn bold and only that <a href>. Sample table:
<table id="tbl">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>col 1 label</th>
<th>col 2 label</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>one</td>
<td>sometext <a class="tt" href="#">link</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>two</td>
<td>moretext <a class="tt" href="#">link</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>three</td>
<td>differenttext <a class="tt" href="#">link</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>four</td>
<td>othertext <a class="tt" href="#">link</a></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
So, if I click the link in row three, I want the text "link" in row two to become bold. This is using jquery and traversing this is kicking me hard.

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily Life, Health, MentalI’m so stressed that I’ve maintained a headache for about two weeks. There needs to be some serious downtime in the near future.
I cannot get my inner voice to be silent. I wish I could turn off my brain.

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Philosophy, PoetryI will do everything big!
For no success should go unnoticed
No voice unheard
No risk taken without chance of harm
No conditional love
No joy mundane
And no mistake can ever be small.

add a commentLet’s talk SEO and domain names September 1, 2010 7:50 am
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : TechnologySay for more than half a decade (really its been a decade) Cathy has blogged as DomesticPsychology.com and she has. Let’s say on a whim she decides she would rather be blogging as CathyMcCaughan.com (in reality she hasn’t..this is simply a working example). Currently http://CathyMcCaughan.com forwards to http://domesticpsychology.com/. To complicate things, let’s say they are registered at 2 different registrars so DNS is handled by two different organizations.
Many options exist for moving a domain name. What is the best way to make http://cathymccaughan.com/ the primary url for Cathy’s website instead of http://domesticpsychology.com/ without losing the search engine rankings or readership and without creating broken links?
