Proactive cures for future pains in the ass.
Good old Apple is on top of things, by golly. They have kindly published a series of developer articles (an overview, practical code samples and a FAQ) to help web developers make sure that sites with embedded content (QuickTime or otherwise) will still work as intended after Microsoft modifies Windows Internet Explorer next year. I like being slightly ahead of this sort of thing rather than having it drop on my head a few months down the road. There’s no time like now to make simple changes like the ones in the examples. If you’re like me, you’d probably rather avoid having all your blood, sweat and tears turned into bile, dung and other nasty browser excretions. Thanks again to Apple for cleaning up another slick that Microsoft has left on the beach. As can be expected, Mr Dominey adds a few choice elucidations regarding the imminent kerfuffle. And while you’re strolling about town, be sure to peruse the viewer comments. Always entertaining.
