Hi, Ivan,

1) Thank you very much for the very informative links. They answered a bunch of questions I didn't even know to ask. Of course, they've raised a few questions, too, but chasing down the answers should keep me harmlessly occupied and out of trouble (well, maybe) for a while. :-)

2) One thing looks odd: in the last #if statement on both pages, there seems to be a duplicated operand,
&& !$currentProject.getName().equals("contributing")
which seems harmless, unless some name that should be there has been left out.

3) It's not that I suspect your header code of any wrong-doing. I just want to know why sometimes, clicking on the login button simply repaints the page with the "you are logged in" header, but other times, I get a special Login page (just like a Trojan Horse scam would do), which then dumps me on My Pages, regardless of where I was when I logged in, a nuisance.

For that matter, as the new and proud possessor of my very own IP address (courtesy of my recent upgrade to broadband), I am rather surprised that the system doesn't recognize that, and log me in automatically. (I do realize that this sort of thing is not under your control. I just wonder.) /tj/

Hi T.J.

You can see exactly what the header does at this page:

http://look.openoffice.org/source/browse/look/www/overrides/templates/NewBanner.vm?rev=1.45&view=markup

compare with

http://look.openoffice.org/source/browse/look/www/overrides/templates/BannerTest.vm?rev=1.38&view=markup
(pre-refresh -some structural differences possible)

As you will see, the code (preceded by a #) is essentially the same.
When the user clicks the Login button, they are handed over to the
CollabNet system, over which I have no control.

Regards,
Ivan.

As mentioned, the problem was reported before the new header had been
implemented.

Hi, Ivan,

Would you mind spelling out what the header is supposed to do, or point me
to an old thread, so I can do my homework?

When I hover over the login link, I always see the nice drop-down box, with
my user name and password all filled in (I presume by Firefox). But when I
click on the Login button, several different things may happen, and I find
that puzzling.
