Box Layout in CSS
One of the last lingering things I thought Flex had on HTML/CSS was a proper horizontal and vertical box layout. Turns out that in CSS 3, we finally have a proper box model! I adapted this tutorial to show how you do a vertical box in Webkit (Titanium, Safari, Chrome) - ought to work in FF by using a -moz prefix, but haven’t tested there yet:
Check out the Safari docs on the box- family of CSS properties here.
No company — no matter how big or how creative — should dictate what you can create, how you create it, or what you can experience on the web.

Upcoming live Titanium Training
On the heels of the Titanium 1.x release, I’ll be on the road at two training events in April. The first will be at 360|iDev in San Jose. On the Sunday before the conference, I’ll be delivering a 4-hour primer on Titanium Mobile development in the morning, followed by an open hack session in the afternoon.
The second event will be in Atlanta (birthplace of Appcelerator) at Kennesaw State University. The Center for Sustainable Journalism is hosting a two day intensive workshop with yours truly on building applications for mobile devices using Titanium.
Hope to see you there!
I’ve always found that courage comes from remembering that we fight for something and someone beyond ourselves. It comes from our faith. And it comes from our commitment to those we love.

Titanium 1.0 just dropped - here’s the getting started video I released alongside it (the preceding two lessons are available now as well).
Maven builds are an infinite cycle of despair that will slowly drag you into the deepest, darkest pits of hell (where Maven itself was forged).
