by ycc2106
What is UniView? An XHTML-based application to look up characters, character blocks, paste in and discover unknown characters, search for characters, do hex/dec/ncr conversions, highlight character types, etc. etc. It supports Unicode 5.2(beta) and is written with Web Standards to work on all major browsers. It is based on XHTML, JavaScript, PHP and AJAX technologies, so you don't need to download anything. How do I use it? I suggest you check out the help file for instructions and new features first. Then just go to the UniView page. Note that you must have JavaScript enabled. Annotated link http://www.diigo.com/bookmark/http%3A%2F%2Frishida.net%2Fscripts%2Funiview

Character encoding detection for external scripts
by karlcow
This is (EF BB BF) C3 B6 3D 22 21 22 loaded into browsers under various labels. That happens to be properly formed ECMAScript code for all the encodings used. The bogus results for Opera9 can easily be reproduced in context of the testing script, but probably not individually from a clean cache; what's going on there is unknown. I also noted in running these tests that Opera claims "Opera supports the entire ECMA-262 2nd and 3rd standards with no exceptions" while in fact their implementation does not, the parser rejects code that follows the IdentifierStart :: UnicodeEscapeSequence production of ECMA-262 section 7.6. Instead it implements Opera-only extensions, like comma-free arrays ala [ 1 2 3 ]. Other fun facts include: IE does not implement onload for iframes and cannot modify the innerHTML or tr elements; Firefox ignores "tags" when setting the innerHTML of dynamically created tr elements with no ownerElement... Oh and Opera again needs /th "tags" so it won't nest adjacent th elements when setting innerHTML.
Flickr - Sauvegarde/export globale des données(métadonnées) - Wiki URFIST
by decembre
Flickr présente l'inconvénient majeur de ne pas permettre une sauvegarde/export globale des données, alors même que Exporter les images est facile, mais le problème principal demeure: comment sauvegarder les métadonnées ajoutées aux photographies. Conserver les métadonnées dans les images même et non dans un fichier externe. C'est le sens de la règle d'or posée par Erwyn Van Der Meer, l'auteur de l'outil Flickr Metadata Synchr, listé plus haut, dans un article où il fait un point très clair et synthétique sur les formats et la façon dont Flickr les utilise (ou pas): "Store the metadata in your images!" De quelles métadonnées parle-t-on? * celles enregistrées par l'appareil (digital) au moment où la photographie est prise (informations techniques); format de référence: EXIF * celles ajoutées manuellement (en particulier les mots-clés / tags); formats: IPTC (plus) et XMP(plus), le second plus récent et traitant l'unicode.
