Note to self: This link, Declared Element Reference helped congeal the whole idea of explicitly referencing controls in Visual Basic programming for me. Thanks to this and this reference, ceTe.DynamicPDF.PageElements.Label, which described the correct tree.

Today I learned a bit more about the difference between the newer, international font encoding standard, Unicode versus the older, localized, ANSI standard. I’ll forget what I learned if I don’t make a note, Unicode and multilingual support in HTML, fonts, Web browsers and other applications.

A little follow up on the latest float clearing method, mezzoblue | Clearance. The verdict? Good for some situations but not others, especially those where you’re dealing with wide content. A run-down of float clearing methods:
overflow: auto - which can cause scroll bars when the inner float’s width expands beyond its container.Comments (+)
I’ll be damned. It pays off to actually read the weblog feeds I follow. Thanks to this timely link, Simple Clearing of Floats | 456 Berea Street I have a potentially better approach to formatting web forms. It will take some experimenting but by being able to contain floated label elements within a cleared (and semantic) block element (a p for example) then I can better style lines and thus form elements without adding any extraneous markup.
