Web Design by Sheriar Designs: Impeccable Code | Beautiful Design

Ok, so I just started working on my first Ruby site. Can I tell you honestly, that it lives up to the hype? I can. At least, for me it does. It is such a treat, as a CSS designer, to work with back end progamming that I can get well enough to do what it is that I do without having to involve a middle man. I love it!

My first challenge, however, was getting Ruby files (.rhtml files) to show up in Dreamweaver. I tried adding that extension to some lists in the preferences panel and was able to at least open Ruby files in Dreamweaver, but they weren’t color coded, nor did they make any effort whatsoever in the Preview Panel. Ok, not a big deal, but … what was a big deal was that I discovered that I could not use Find or Find and Replace actions in the Ruby folders. THAT was a problem!

Since April of this year I have been working for HGTV.com creating their monthly and bi-monthly Gardening Newsletters. This has been great for me in so many ways.

Hey Everyone. So, I have slacked off big time on the blogging side of things lately. Rest assured, I have excuses:

• I was out of town for a couple of weeks
• I have been spending tons of time and energy trying to get this new business off the ground
• I have barely been working (billable hours, that is), and so have no new tips and tricks to draw from
• Life in general has taken an extremely hectic turn
