cues are same-origin, so we side-step the security issues there
00:00
<Hixie>
though if we did what you described, we'd never be able to do cross-origin cues either
00:00
<nessy>
ok, so that problem doesn't exist for cues?
00:00
<nessy>
ah ok
00:02
<nessy>
thanks, that's the arguments that we needed :-)

<Hixie>
why on earth are <output> elements in Chrome focusable
05:56
<Hixie>
is that fixed in dev builds?
05:57
Hixie
wonders if he's already run into this and complained about it...

Hi. Just a heads up to any admins. I just submitted a new blog entry for review ;)
22:50
<ktos>
Hello
22:51
<ktos>
I read TabAtkins blogpost about layout template vs flexbox
22:52
<ktos>
his arguments are very nice but just wondering does anybody have different opinion? :)
22:52

23:00
<aho>
like what?
23:00
<aho>
flexbox isn't the ultimate solution for doing layouts
23:00
<aho>
it's just too limited
23:00
<aho>
ascii layout... eh.. "template" gets rid of some restrictions
23:02
<aho>
the biggest problem is probably that css isn't a layout language
23:02
<aho>
however, no one really knows how a layout language should look like :>
23:02
<ktos>
aho: but if you had to choose what would you say? :)
23:03
<aho>
didn't know it was a xor thing
23:04
<aho>
his conclusion also doesnt suggest this
23:04
<ktos>
there was yet Microsoft
23:05
<ktos>
's draft
23:05
<ktos>
in 2007 but seems to be dead
23:07
<aho>
i'm still not sure what you're looking for
23:09
<ktos>
I just tried to get know the future :)
23:09
<ktos>
but image is very distorted
23:10
<ktos>
anyway thank you for expressions :)
23:10
<aho>
btw there is some js implementation of ascii layout
23:11
<aho>
you could give it a try if you want
23:12
<ktos>
yes, I saw it such as flexbox js implementaions
23:12
<ktos>
I going to test it
23:12
<aho>
we'll probably end up with both things... or two things which are sorta kinda like that... or one thing which can do both things without getting too awkward

This draft is related to the drafts about positoning with grid units (‘gr’) [CSS3GRID], flexible GUIs [CSS3-FLEXBOX], and tables [CSS3TBL]. The CSS Working Group is considering combining some or all of these into a single specification with all matrix-based layouts.
23:14
<ktos>
aho: have you seen this: http://desandro.com/demo/masonry/ ?
23:14
<aho>
yes
23:15
<aho>
that float "up" kind of thing innit?
23:15
<ktos>
aho: I am wondering is it another idea or implementation of some of drafts
23:16
<ktos>
I saw some description about float reversing there but I am still unsure
23:16
<aho>
afaict something like that isn't covered by any of the drafts
23:17
<ktos>
do you think does it make any sense or better use some implementation of draft in hypothetical production use?
23:17
<ktos>
js implmentation of draft*
23:18
<aho>
you can use anything in production that works good enough on the target hardware/software
23:18
<aho>
what that exactly means is a different story :>
23:19
<ktos>
yeah, my problem is I like the best of the best solutions, no compromises, which is very rare in CS unfortunatly :)
23:20
<aho>
web front-end stuff = compromises build on top of other compromises :>
23:21
<ktos>
right :)
23:28
<ktos>
oh, btw just discovered Microsoft's idea resurected http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/css3-grid-align/
23:30
<CvP>
grid is kinda ... great so far.
23:30
<CvP>
combine this with flex and it should be really "flexible"
