January Mailbag Q & A
I've been receiving a ton of emails lately with regard to MooTools, jQuery, CSS, PHP, Script & Style, and my opinions on current web topics. While I enjoy responding to these emails, I think it would serve better to have the questions and answers available on this blog. For this reason, I'd like to do another "mailbag" post.
