		<title>Inspiration</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I listen a lot to undeniably soul-crashing, mind-traveling paranoid sounds. The band Ephel Duath has been a very close friend.
Their music literally makes one want to tear his heart out [in the good way]. Jazzy improvises, inspired rhythmic changes and deadly vocals compose the picture of real cynicism.
On the other hand, there is also [...]]]></description>

		<title>Long time no see&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230; but better late than never, right?
I launched a personal portofolio here, one could call it a brother site. This will house only my projects, starting with the first semester&#8217;s university project. Others will follow, surely, it will just be some time before I post something new.
I have so many things to talk about and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Greece on fire&#8230; again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My country is experiencing the 6th straight day of fire burning inside its mainland. The images can speak for themselves. 
24/8
25/8
26/8
27/8
Everyone is devastated. Spirits are very low. 63 dead and counting. Fire has no intention on stopping and there is no going back now&#8230; its really one of the greatest catastrophes Greece has ever experienced. [...]]]></description>

		<title>University&#8230; done!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I should also mention, just for kicks, that last week I delivered my final paper and thus I finished with my university studies at the University of Piraeus. My studies lasted five years (10 semesters) the last of which were combined with a full-time job. In September I am flying for Hull, UK, for a [...]]]></description>

		<title>My new Asus G1S /w Ubuntu</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I bought an Asus G1S recently and it has been great.
At first I finished the setup of Windows Vista, which I have never used before, just for the experience.
I was disappointed to see a gaming laptop with a nVidia 8600M video graphics card, a 2.2GHz dual core cpu and 2 Gigs of RAM to get [...]]]></description>

		<title>IE reserved keywords</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Once again i fell into the hands of the evil one.
I was implementing this extension to YUI&#8217;s extenion  that generates nice looking charts. I had everything working on Firefox when I saw that the chart, along with other things, did not generate on IE. I said to myself that it must be my fault, [...]]]></description>

		<title>IE bug?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know about you folks, but I have a little function I call to get an element by its id and it goes something like this

function getObj( pID ) {
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;if( util.docRoot.getElementById )
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;{
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;return util.docRoot.getElementById( pID );
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;}
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;else if( util.docRoot.all )
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;{
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;return util.docRoot.all[pID];
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;} 
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;return false;
}

For example, we have two &#60;input&#62; fields as such

&#60;input type=&#8221;text&#8221; id=&#8221;shakeit&#8221; name=&#8221;shakethis&#8221; value=&#8221;valueA&#8221; /&#62;
&#60;input [...]]]></description>

		<title>A pop-up on mouseover with Ajax</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was working till seven o&#8217;clock yesterday trying to see why the floating box I had created two weeks ago sometimes would not give up and disappear.
The story behind this project
The project is an online jewellery catalog, although you can think of it as an image gallery for simplicity. The goal is to show a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;is always a charm. Here is mine. This, hopefully, will be a place for discussion. I intend to update the blog with bug discoveries concerning Internet Explorer and web development in general. And more, whatever comes to mind actually.
