- Dreamweaver templates locks in erroneous code:
- How? If someone copies and paste code developed previously, there exists code in the header or elsewhere that gets locked in, that would later need to be added or deleted depending on the goals of the project.
- Why is this important even though it looks good? Because there exists extra code, or erroneous code that causes slow downs in rendering and could put pressure on servers if it doesn’t already.
- Furthermore many times I find the non-editable parts need to be editable later down the line, I need to add in tags in the header, and developing code in Dreamweaver is a pain, I have to open up the file in BBEdit instead just to make a few changes. So my question is why do we even bother purchasing Dreamweaver?

- Reasoned out that allowing for multiple DialogBoxes would be a distraction for this type of information. There is no need for analyzing information side by side, instead its more just rote knowledge rather than comparative comprehension, maybe will utilize multiple DialogBoxes in a situation where comparing information from 1 page to another is convenient and helpful.
- Trying to figure out the how to allow opacity without too much distraction, sort of like a glass window, planning to style windows to have a metallic orange vibe.
- Met with Susan, to discuss about Varga section for TBH site. Varga
- YEAH! made the graph builder use up 3x~5x less memory than my earlier iterations.
- Figured out a logical relation from a given data set, to the location of placing text, and other relations:
- Will focus on design this week, and ability to customize design, and pre-set color schemes.
Given {(0px,0px) –> (500px, 600px)} how do you transform those set of numbers into {(initial years, lowest unit measurements) –> (end year, highest unit measurements)}?
-
- Determining mouse location on x-axis with respect to the data given: (myStage.mouseX /(graphWidth/xlines))*((xf-x0)/xlines))
- Determining placement of tick marks on graphs for a given set of data: (graphData.x-graphData.startX)*(graphWidth/(graphData.endX-graphData.startX))
- Talked with Ran, and will be working on first getting the graph builder to be customizable by using xml data sheet, setting colors, size, etc.
- Currently working on getting it to mimic graphs with Texas Politics
- current graph builder : Data Display
- Meeting with Susan sometime this Friday or Monday Possibly

- Been recoding the graph builder in Object Orient way, running into problems, thinking about reverting back to old version. Would have been more efficient, and code would run more smoothly. Much more easily transferable to Flex if need be, but am not using Flex components.
- Key differences from Flash and Flex,
- Flex provides better coding environment than Flash
- Flex more oriented to creating RIA’s (“Rich Internet Applications”) more quickly than Flash.
- Pre-made components allows for quicker development of RIA.
- Flex generally creates a larger .swf file because of the “Flex Framework”.
- Pre-Made components may not be optimized toward project goals, which could lead to speed performance issues.
- Key differences from Flash and Flex,
- Would rather not rely on pre-made components.
