About the
authors
Karl Swedberg
is a web developer at Structure Interactive in Grand Rapids,
Michigan, where he spends much of his time implementing design with
a focus on "web standards"—semantic HTML, well-mannered CSS, and
unobtrusive JavaScript.
Before his current love affair with web
development, Karl worked as a copy editor, a high-school English
teacher, and a coffee house owner. His fascination with technology
began in the early 1990s when he worked at Microsoft in Redmond,
Washington, and it has continued unabated ever since.
Karl's other
obsessions include photography, karate, English grammar, and
fatherhood. He lives in Grand Rapids with his wife, Sara, and his
two children, Benjamin and Lucia.
Jonathan Chaffer Jonathan Chaffer is the Chief Technology Officer of Structure Interactive, an interactive agency located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. There he oversees web development projects using a wide range of technologies, and continues to collaborate on day-to-day programming tasks as well.
In the open-source community, Jonathan has been very active in the Drupal CMS project, which has adopted jQuery as its JavaScript framework of choice. He is the creator of the Content Construction Kit, a popular module for managing structured content on Drupal sites. He is responsible for major overhauls of Drupal's menu system and developer API reference.
Jonathan lives in Grand Rapids with his wife, Jennifer. About Packt Publishing
