The Science of Looking Good in the Inbox CSSHow do I add margins to my image so text will wrap around it? Outlook 2007 and 2010 do not support the margin or padding CSS properties when placed within an image.

PayPal Releases Kraken to Help Spur Node.js Adoption Michael Vizard, March 7th, 2014 PayPal, looking to provide an additional structure around the Node.js application framework, developed the Kraken implementation, a more secure and scalable framework for building commercial-grade applications. This week, PayPal is making Kraken available to the broader open-source community.

Every time a technology gets shared with the open source community, Scott says, developers’ enthusiasm for acquiring a skill they could potentially use elsewhere winds up increasing use of that technology by orders of magnitude. Kraken is based on the express Web application framework. Both comments and pings are currently closed.

Un e-mail en HTML responsive multi-clients L'e-mail (ou newsletter) reste encore aujourd’hui un moyen efficace de transmettre des informations à ses utilisateurs ou clients. En mode texte, aucun problème, c'est un standard interprété sans difficulté. En mode HTML c'est un art ô combien délicat en partie dû au nombre de clients lecteurs d'e-mail sur le marché qui ont des comportements bien différents (encore plus désormais que les navigateurs classiques). Cette disparité de l'interprétation des e-mails au format HTML provient de plusieurs facteurs : Les clients e-mails lourds (Outlook, Thunderbird, Lotus Notes...) ont un fonctionnement radicalement différents des webmails (Gmail, Yahoo Mail, Hotmail, Outlook.com...). Mettons fin immédiatement à vos désirs les plus fous : encore plus que le web, la réalisation d'e-mails graphiques en HTML, au pixel près ou presque, sur toutes les plates-formes, est une utopie. Voici quelques astuces et bonnes pratiques pour obtenir des e-mails au rendu proche sur la majorité des programmes.
