Curse of the BOM

I rented that last week. It's almost as bad as "Plan 9 From Outer Space".


That is one I haven't seen. Such a cult following I should see it just
for context.

Oh, absoLOOTly! Carefuly watch for mundane objects dressed up to look
like futuristic technology. Example: on a table that represents, IIRC,
the communications center, along with some old radio gear, is one of those
highway flashers that typically hooked onto a barracade sawhorse and
consisted of a flattish two-sided round plastic lens that was attached to
the top of a big rectangular battery. But so you won't recognize it as
such, they've laid an X across the round lens with a couple pieces of
gaffers tape.

And it's got Vampira.

And cardboard headstones in the cemetary, that move around when someone
walks past them.

What's not to love?

Rent it. Rent it now. Report back!

Oh, and (IMDB): "Bela Lugosi appears in footage shot just before his
death, but with no script in mind. Edward D. Wood Jr. wrote the script to
accommodate all the footage shot in a cemetery and outside Tor Johnson's
house in the new production. Lugosi was doubled by Tom Mason, Wood's
wife's chiropractor, who was significantly taller than Lugosi, and played
the part with a cape covering his face."

Yep,

VS 2008 problem. ASP.NET and VisualStudio 2008 is great for server
side, database, web services, ...
.... but it sucks at rendering.

I don't use any of the easy to use Asp.Net controls ... always
something goes wrong.

Anyway, I am not using Asp.Net theme anymore and I would like an
advice.
What is the best way to organize my CSS files?

I am adding the following:

<style type="text/css" media="Screen">@import url("styles/
master.css")</style>

Then on master.css I have:
@import url("reset.css");
@import url("base.css");
@import url("print.css");

Could you tell me if I am adding the master CSS file the right way and
if this is a good way to organize my styles?
How to you usually to it?

Thank You,
Miguel

Visual Studio must be throwing in something else

Yes, I found that when it starts with a comment or empty line
the CSS files gets the following characters at the start:


So Visual Studio is the brain-dead program that spoils
*ASCII only* text files by inserting a BOM.

Remove the BOM from ASCII files!
