Hi again, Marcus and others

First, please ignore the post I sent just now, the approach I talked about won't work for the home page, but we may want to think about what to do with some of the much older version, e.g. 2.4.1. I don't even think they're linked right now. OK, on to this post.

Hello Kay,

IMHO there shouldn't be any problems when:

a) putting the other variables in it.
b) move the file to download.openoffice.org
a) renaming VERSION into STABLE_VERSION and modifying the other HTML websites respectively.

Again, OK, but I think this difference would apply only to folks wanting to download development versions, and I'm not sure if this would come into play with our normal download.

I would like to have the renaming to identify for what the variable is when we have a lot more in the future.

OK, I did just add several "versions" and other variables you spoke about to globalvars.js which is now in the download area if you want to take a look. Or, if you want to try to use them.

I can change the index page of say download.openoffice.org/2.4.2 to use the new js file for a rather non-harmful test. My only concern IS that each of these old index pages will need to be manually changed when we go to newer versions. I don't like this really, but can't come up with a working alternative at the moment.

So, let's play with this a bit, and brainstorm some more I guess.




The only "problem" could arrise when coming with a new JS file. ;-) But anyway ...
Well I understand your concerns here but, well, if we did this at least we'd only need to change the ONE place instead of many.

Right :-)

Best regards

Marcus
