In my last post, I discussed some observations that I made regarding maintaining legacy web-sites. Although, afaik, all of the information I presented in that post is accurate, if you want to bring your old quirks/compatibility-view reliant page up to modern HTML5 standards, here are some tips.

Maintaining legacy web sites
posted on January 24, 2016 by long2know in Web
Over the weekend, I had an interesting experience updating an old, legacy website that uses ASP. ASP is interesting, but the more interesting thing is that many of these old applications rely on specific browser modes or default to “quirks” mode.
Angular Tabbed Navigation
posted on January 19, 2016 by long2know in angular, codepen, plunker
In my previous posts regarding advanced Angular navigation, I showed how to create a menu and use the $state provider(s) to track the current state, which menu option is active, and how to move between states using ui-sref. This particular demo used an in-line service called “menuService.”
This is a pretty solid mechanism for navigation, but I wanted to also take a look at doing something similar with the same navigationService, ui-router, and ui-bootstrap tabs.
