If the package name was on the same line as the text, you'd get more information on the page - though I guess it might end up with the text being too dense.
Sure. That's what I wanted to say when I asked for layouters. The implementation is done as description list (<dl>). If you add a class tag to blends/trunk/webtools/templates/packagelist.xhtml <dl>, <dt> and <dd> tags and put the right formatting into blends/trunk/webtools/inc/style.css this can simply be accomplished. My intention was to leave this as homework for those who requested the packagelist feature.
It would be nice (though perhaps difficult) if the support tasks (Typesetting, viewing, Data Acquisition, Image analysis in the case of the science pages) were not mixed in with the subject tasks[1].
I agree that this would be nice. A very simple and hackisch "solution" would be to add a common prefix in front of the task name which would have the consequence to put them together in the alphabetical ordering. I see no other quick solution.
If it were easy to get the table of contents into the left hand part of the page (while still having all the packages on one page) that would be nice (but is really icing on the cake and only worth doing if easy).
It's very easy - just edit blends/trunk/webtools/templates/packagelist.xhtml accordingly. (Hint: I learned that xmllint -noout *.xhtml is a reasonable thing to do because you do not have to wait until the genshi templating systems informs you about XML problems after 10 minutes of processing the Python scripts.)
I like it.
Thanks. ;-)
[1] Up until last week, this only applied to Typesetting and Viewing - which naturally sorted to the end of the list.
I was perfectly aware of this at the moment of creating the dataacquisition task - but as I said: I have no better solution for the moment. There might be a chance to add a list of task names to the webconf configuration file like ORDER=task1 task4 task2 task3 and parsing this. But before I even think about implementing this I would like to hear your opinion what might be the reasonable action for the cases: 1. some tasks are missing in the list 2. the order list contains a task name which does not exxist Possible actions are: A. Put tasks missing in the list at the end B. Fall back to alphabethical order in case 1. or 2. happens C. Print an error message and do nothing D. ...
