  • message from the admin

    upgraded to wp 1.2.1

    In addition, I’ve managed to find a solution to the escaping comment form problem in IE.

    I replaced 100% by 400px in the css controlling the text area field:

    #commentform textarea {
    width: 400px;
    }

    If you don’t know what I’m talking about, sorry to late… the admin has fixed it! For IE and Opera, I hope, pray and believe. Still need to check it in Firefox. Going jogging now…

    [update Oct 10] I’ve been changing the css settings and have started customizing some of the php files.
    If something doesn’t work, please leave a comment below. Please let me know how the comment form behaves in your browser. Does the comment form still expand to infinity when you start typing?

    BTW, we’ve got perfect chiperoni weather in Basel today! Constant drizzle and fog.

  • Mailand oder Madrid – Hauptsache Italien *

    I came across a number of Italian language links this week:

    * The former German national football player Andreas Möller supposedly said this in an interview.

  • dog abandoned at supermarket

    Apparently somebody abandoned (or forgot?) a puppy at the supermarket opposite of our office. There was a quite a commotion… The police came to pick up the young dog. The puppy looked really forlorn and lost. Poor guy. Cos he didn’t want to follow or wasn’t used to walking on a leash, the policeman ended up carrying him to the police van.

    I wonder why somebody would abandon their dog like that…

    In the same way that some people over-exaggerate and treat their pets like children, others fail to recognize that animals are not objects that you can simply throw away at will.
