Hi All,
Does anyone else use the JD Edwards E1 Timesheet system? I ask as it a constant pain in in the rear end. The user interface appears to Java, programmed by either an intern or someone who was a programmer by reading 'Java For Dummies' or similar. The worst thing was I googled it and found a web site for them? claiming awards, the Dilbert of the Day calendar for today (8-17-16) seems appropriate!

deltek sounds like a class of railway locomotive we used to have in the uk Deltec or Diesel Electric.

Found this:
CSS Reference[^]
and this:
HTML attribute reference - HTML: Hypertext Markup Language | MDN[^]
But what I'd really like is reference where each element has a description of permitted attributes and styles. I mean, really, if I were writing a rendering engine (which I'm not) where is the gospel of what's permissible as an element's styles and how all these styles behave?
Actually, W3Schools has done a great job of making an interactive UI -- click on one of the style definitions, like "display", and you can see all the options and even how they behave. Still, I don't want to be clicking everywhere. Isn't there an actual document somewhere?
In my insufficient google-fu, I stumbled across something interesting but unrelated:
Custom Elements: defining new elements in HTML - HTML5 Rocks[^]
|
|
|
|
|
Start here: HTML 5.2: 3. Semantics, structure, and APIs of HTML documents[^]
The current spec has anchors to elements that an element inherits from so it's easier to search and browse in the page rather than in a search engine. It's not really authoritative though because browser and web developers do whatever they want, and that eventually gets reflected in the spec.
I don't know if there's anything quite as helpful for CSS rules, as far as I understand it there's some basic rules about defaults (block vs inline elements for example), but mostly that's decided by browsers.
CSS is much bigger, but I think you'd start here: CSS Snapshot 2018[^] (Links to all of the pages that I think you actually want)
Just remember:

Hah, I posted that earlier in the Insider News.  (OK, maybe I'm looking for some hugs right now, otherwise there's not much point to saying that, haha.)

Ah! I read it! I did a cursory scan but didn't go back to Tuesday.

Maybe he should have used NOTNULL.
Not sure whether seven characters are allowed in a license plate.

In some states, yes. California and Arizona definitely.
California also allows some symbols.

Any states give you enough characters to have 'DROP TABLE'?

GitHub - codewitch-honey-crisis/pck: The Parser Construction Kit ("Puck")[^]
Syntax highlighting for XBNF, PCK, C# and VB files.
Generates code and pcks.
still alpha, but stable enough anyway, for the most part.
it works as is, but is unfinished, yet cool
