ide Use of ch unit considered inappropriate (in certain circumstances) By clagnut.com Published On :: Fri, 14 Jun 2024 09:09:14 PST Update: The title of this post was originally a knowing nod to the considered harmful cliché. I thought it might be amusing and get a bit of attention. However it was brought to my attention by a few people I respect that the title as written might be harmful in itself, so I changed it. However I believe that the subtle point I’m trying to make still stands: When did we start using the ch unit to specify the maximum length for a line of text? Many places you look nowadays you'll see a variation on: .prose { max-inline-size: 60ch; } Is it because of a direct reading of Bringhurst and people (like me) who’ve quoted him: Anything from 45 to 75 characters is widely regarded as a satisfactory length of line for a single-column page set in a serifed text face in a text size. The 66-character line (counting both letters and spaces) is widely regarded as ideal. For multiple column work, a better average is 40 to 50 characters. I get it: there’s all that talk of ’characters’. But that’s not what Bringhurst means literally. I’ll come back to that shortly. Firstly let’s remind ourselves about the CSS ch unit. While ch sounds like it should equate to a number of characters or a character width, that’s not strictly the case. The ch unit specifically refers to the width of the zero ’0’ character within the selected font, or 0.5em if no ’0’ is present. So unless you have a line made up entirely of zeroes, or are using a monospaced font, a width of 66ch will probably not give you a line containing 66 characters. What’s more, the rendered width of that line will vary with the font design, sometimes significantly. Two text blocks are set to 34 ch wide, but the use of a condensed font (top) and an expanded font (bottom) makes the rendered width narrower and wider respectively. The important part of Bringhurst’s guideline is not the ’66-characters’ but the ’satisfactory length’. This is about readability, and readability is affected by the length of a line more so than the number of characters in it. A consistent finding is that long line lengths on screen are least preferred or judged as least easy to read [my emphasis] With that in mind, restricting your line length using rem would be a far more appropriate unit to use: .prose { max-inline-size: 30rem; } This would give you a line length accessibly tied to text size, but independent of font design. But is using ch harmful? Bringhurst’s guideline includes this little caveat: a page set in a serifed text face in a text size. This enables him to equate the number of characters in a line with its length. So if you are using a fairly standard typeface for your text then you’ll probably be fine. However that ’standard typeface’ assumption is implicit anytime you use ch to set the width of a column of text. Using rem removes that assumption and gives you what you are probably really after – a consistent, predictable limit on line length. It didn’t surprise me to find that Eric Meyer had written about this six years ago. I’ll leave you with an important observation from his post: If you’re working with multiple typefaces, say one for headlines and another for body copy, be careful about setting ch measures and thinking they’ll be equivalent between the two fonts. The odds are very, very high they won’t be. So is using ch harmful? At the risk of saying it depends, it might not be harmful, but it could be, and there is a far more reliable and appropriate unit to use by way of the rem when it comes to limiting line length in a column of text.

ide OAuth2 Introspection with WSO2 ESB and WSO2 Identity Server By pzf.fremantle.org Published On :: Sat, 09 Nov 2013 17:26:00 +0000 The OAuth2 specification defines several parties: the Client, the Resource Owner, the Authorization Server and the Resource Server. Here is the (textual) diagram from the spec: +--------+ +---------------+ | |--(A)- Authorization Request ->| Resource | | | | Owner | | |<-(B)-- Authorization Grant ---| | | | +---------------+ | | | | +---------------+ | |--(C)-- Authorization Grant -->| Authorization | | Client | | Server | | |<-(D)----- Access Token -------| | | | +---------------+ | | | | +---------------+ | |--(E)----- Access Token ------>| Resource | | | | Server | | |<-(F)--- Protected Resource ---| | +--------+ +---------------+ Figure 1: Abstract Protocol Flow One flow that is not defined by the OAuth specification is any flow from the Resource Server to the Authorization server to validate an existing Bearer Token (or other token). The spec says: The interaction between the authorization server and resource server is beyond the scope of this specification. The authorization server may be the same server as the resource server or a separate entity. A single authorization server may issue access tokens accepted by multiple resource servers. In many cases the Authorization server offers an API to access this. For example, Google allows you to call a TokenInfo APIto validate tokens. Similarly Facebook offers an API to "debug" a token. The WSO2 Identity Server also offers an API, but (shock and horror) we don't document it yet. The ESB and API manager both utilize this API to validate OAuth2 bearer tokens. The ESB code is of course available, and with a quick look at the code and also the use of TCPMON it didn't take me long to reverse engineer the API. This Gist has a sample HTTP SOAP request against the WSO2 IS to validate a token: It turns out that the OAuth Working Group at the IETF is working on this and has a draft specification available, using a RESTful service. They call this OAuth Token Introspection. I figured this would be easier (and more pleasant) to call from my Python code, so I knocked up a quick WSO2 ESB API mediation flow to convert from the RESTful API to the existing WSO2 SOAP-based API. I know that Prabath and the security and identity team at WSO2 will soon add this useful REST API, but in the meantime, here is a quick hack to help you out. Please note you need to hardcode the URL of the IS and the userid/password into the ESB flow. Also I assume if you don't provide a token_type_hint then this is a bearer token. And here is the Gist showing a sample interaction: ->->-> Full Article
