Bits and Pieces

Weather is Ajaxified- adding an update indicator, auto-refresh, and other good stuff on the backend. I am using the script.aculo.us Ajax engine. Home page has improved CSS code for the columns. Minor updates to Gallery and Webmail have been completed. The Family page now has improved reliability when accessing the Gallery. If you log off the Gallery, visiting the family page will automatically log you back in.

Weather... It's Faster

With a bit of "blood, sweat, and tears" ;D I have re-written much of the weather code. I gutted what I wasn't using and optimized what I was. You should notice quite a difference in performance. CSS in place of a nested IFRAME fixed part of the problem. Then there was the cache cleaning code that did nothing. I'm sure I could do more. Perhaps another day...

Home Page Juggling

The home page contents have been juggled around a bit. The weather code has had some slight changes as well. You may have noticed the Google ads are gone from the front page (if you didn't :D then you were blocking ads). I'm working on a new news aggregator, but it's slow coming. Other changes recently include minor updates to the Gallery and Webmail.
