- URL Character Codes
- URL’s frequently employ potentially conflicting characters such as question marks, ampersands, and pound signs. Fortunately, it is possible to encode such characters via their escaped hexadecimal ASCII representations. For example, we would write "?" as "%3F". Here are a few more URL character codes (case-insensitive): %3E # %23 % %25 { %7B } %7D | %7C \ %5C ^ %5E ~ %7E [ %5B ] %5D ` %60 ; %3B / %2F ? %3F : %3A @ %40 = %3D & %26 $ %24 + %2B " %22 space %20 References network-tools.com URL Encoding

- Absolutely Centered Layout
- Absolute Centering with CSS & (X)HTML Designing an absolutely centered layout involves centering a division both horizontally and vertically. When this is done, the centered division (or other element) is centered according to the browser window.

- Fun with Downlevel Conditional Comments
- Ever since Internet Explorer 5 (IE5), Microsoft has included browser support for "downlevel conditional comments," a non-scripted method of browser detection. Downlevel conditional comments (DCC) are a useful tool for targeting directives to specific versions of Internet Explorer. Downlevel conditional comments consist of an opening statement and a closing statement. Taken together, the statements enclose markup, CSS, JavaScript, or any other element typically included within an (X)HTML document. The DCC may be placed anywhere within the document and executes its contents only for the version(s) of IE specified. This technique is useful for delivering IE-specific stylesheets exclusively to specific versions of IE. Unfortunately, the last line of a DCC may invoke ...
