Seems capabilities described in OFBIZ-5396 will need to be provided before this
issue can be fully resolved.
> Widget & Application HTML clean-up
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-5040
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5040
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ALL APPLICATIONS
> Reporter: Paul Piper
> Labels: html, webapp, widget, widgetrendering
>
> I am sure that this is a common thing to know: the current backoffice
> application relies heavily on widgets. This is good, but the current
> standard-html-structure is not flexible enough and often lacks proper w3c
> implementation.
> To make matters worse, you can often find applications avoiding widgets at
> all and rather overriding the standards with custom ftl implementations. It
> is these customizations that break the html on numerous screens and make it
> difficult, if not tedious to create new themes for the backoffice.
> This task is hence to:
> * Find a consensus on a new widget standard
> * Go over each of the application ftls and convert these to the new standard
> * Recreate the themes and simplify/clean-up special rules
> Since redoing the theme is a rather large task, we should consider to add an
> additional css for now which stylises the replacement html instead of working
> with the old.
