About
Hi, I’m Paul! I currently reside in Germany and I’m CTO of Dextrose AG, pursuing my dreams and developing my own projects within a team. I’m an inventor, UI Architect, and a whole lot more. I’m so far best known for creating the popular user interface framework jQuery UI, but this is likely to change soon with some fresh upcoming projects in the pipeline..
What you are seeing here is my attempt of a personal playground and a library of ideas, which I want to share with the world.
If you want to find out more about me, find some more information on the following pages (although I’m really best experienced ‘live’):
If you want to contact me, write me an email at paul.bakaus@gmail.com. Thanks!

Just wanted to let you know that I am getting the following message when clicking the View Sample link from Dreamweaver Exchange. It sucks because that is how I decide whether or not to use an extension. I have to be able to try it.
Thanks!
Joel

I had a general comment about the direction of jquery UI and am unable to find any sort of feedback form on the site, which led me to here.
I am developing a mainstream site and of course want it to be compatible with all browsers. Your support of only CSS3, in specific reference to rounded corners, immediately blocks out the IE browser.
I don’t know if this decision was made to make things easier for you (the development team), but that is unfair to those of us who develop using your library. Now -we- are the ones who have to come up with a workaround to a browser limitation such as this, when it should be the libraries problem.
One of the main advantages to using these libraries is they take care of browser compatibility for you.
There are other issues, such as the various widgets using the same background color as the content-UI and therefore they blend in, but I wanted to comment on the general direction of jquery UI. Please keep in mind that you are third party, and what you develop should be convenient for us and not for you.
Thank you,
Michael

Paul et al,
I’m trying to download a custom-built UI using ThemeRoller on jqueryui.com. However, when I download the .zip file for the theme, it does not include the /css folder.
The preset themes all include the /css folder in .zip file that downloads, but the custom themes do not, meaning the sample index.html file that demonstrates the widgets doesn’t render correctly (b/c no css). My guess is it’s a bug on the website.
Paul, can you help me out with this? I’d really like to use the theme that I designed.
Thanks,
Matt
