JavaScript moveTo(0, 0) in FireFox OS X not working

Friday, 15th January 2010

Here’s a weird JavaScript FireFox bug…

In OS X, for some reason the following javascript was not positioning the FireFox browser window to the top left of the screen.

window.moveTo(0, 0);

Solution

Not sure what causes the problem but it seems to work find if you position the window 1 pixel lower.

window.moveTo(0, 1);

Mac OS X SOAP Client – Fixed for Leopard

Wednesday, 28th October 2009

Upgraded to OS X Snow Leopard, Yeah…
Mac OS X SOAP Client not working, boo…

Mac SOAP Client
Mac OS X SOAP Client is a great little app which can be used to access and query XML Web Services. I was very disappointed that after upgrading to Snow Leopard the XML result preview tab kept crashing the application.

Fortunately the application is now an open source project available on Google Code and it was only a short matter of time beforeĀ someone came up with a fix – thank you Howard.


Why is my Safari icon pixelated?

Why is my Safari icon pixelated?

No idea why or how this happened.

Seemed to happen not long after upgrading to Snow Leopard. Had a search around and found other people had been experiencing blurry/pixelated icons too. Also, this thread on the Apple Support web site.

Anyway, I just dragged the Safari application into the dock again and that fixed it for me – weird…
