			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The pull-quotes plugin has undergone some major rewriting in recent weeks.  I released much of that as version 1.7 a few days ago.  Over the weekend I added a few features, revamped the Settings interface for WordPress 2.5, gave it a quick rinse and polish, and here it is!</p>
<p>New in v2.0:</p>
<ul>
<li>Rewrote Settings page to WP 2.5 standard</li>
<li>New Setting to strip internal links (href=&#8221;#id&#8221;) from pull-quotes</li>
<li>Added &#8220;Settings&#8221; link to Actions on Plugins screen</li>
<li>Strips &#8220;a&#8221; tags that lack an &#8220;href&#8221; attribute from pull-quotes</li>
<li>Strips &#8220;id&#8221; and &#8220;name&#8221; attributes from tags in pull-quotes</li>
<li>Improved error correction if Style files go missing (not finished though)</li>
<li>BUGFIX: Files starting with &#8220;.&#8221; should not appear in styles list in Admin</li>
<li>Misc. code cleanup</li>
</ul>
<p>New in v 1.7:</p>
<ul>
<li>BUGFIX: &#8220;preview&#8221; script is now only added to Pull-Quotes page &#8212; used to add to ever admin page (was causing problems when editing posts)</li>
<li>Improved security via <a href="http://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2006/06/02/wordpress-203-nonces/">nonces</a></li>
<li>Changed name of preview script in Admin to avoid potential conflicts</li>
<li>Removed &#8220;edit CSS&#8221; link from Admin.  Doesn&#8217;t work in WP 2.5</li>
<li>Simplified HTML comments on page headers.  Blog pages no longer have plugin URL and Admin page no longer has version.</li>
<li>Extensive code cleanup and abstraction</li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;m very happy with some of the things I figured out along the way to 1.7 and 2.0.  I anticipate they will result in one or more tutorials for plugin authors, not to mention one or two submissions to WordPress core software.</p>
<p>In the meantime, for Geeks and Norms alike, the plugin is good to go.  <img src='http://striderweb.com/nerdaphernalia/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;ve ever used the HTML <code>&lt;sup&gt;</code> tag on a web page, you&#8217;ve probably noticed that  it has a tendency to do strange things in various browsers.  The most common effect is that the line height of that one line of text is pushed up, leaving a small but noticeable gap in the text.</p>
<p>This has always irritated me, as <code>&lt;sup&gt;</code> is a prefectly useful tag, and should be usable without messing up the appearance of a page.</p>
<p>After a bit of experimenting, I think I&#8217;ve found a solid, simple, cross-browser solution.  All you need to do is put the following in your CSS file:</p>
<pre>sup {
position: relative;
top: -3px;
vertical-align: top;
font-size: 90%;
}
</pre>
<p>This appears to standardize the various ways that different browsers render <code>&lt;sup&gt;</code>erscripted text, and it also eliminates that pesky line-height gap!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Been working on a few things lately, including the arduous process of moving into a new house.  In the meantime, however, I&#8217;ve managed to knock out a new WordPress plugin I&#8217;ve (tentatively) decided to call &#8220;Dunce Cap&#8221;.</p>
<p>Dunce Cap was inspired by <a href="http://www.younggogetter.com/2007/08/28/douche-bag-our-first-official-wordpress-plugin/">this plugin</a> by Travis Hines.  It allows you to &#8220;tag&#8221; your commenters with an image.</p>
<p>Currently there is only one image/tag built-in, though you can easily add you own using the Options screen.  See the comments to this post  for a demonstration, and if you install it, <strong>Read the &#8220;readme.txt&#8221;</strong> &#8212; it has some important info.  As this is a beta, it currently requires one extra step before it will actually do anything.</p>
<p>I fully intent to add more built-in tags, and to rename this to something more generalized (and less negative).  Suggestions are welcome.</p>
<p>Download: <del>dunce.zip</del></p>
<p class="update">[Update:  The full plugin is out under a new name: <a href="/nerdaphernalia/features/wp-comment-spotlight/">Comment Spotlight</a>.]</p>
