Hello Kay,

I'm actually working on this today, so good to know...

I've done a cvs update and have seen your 2 files in the test section. So, I thought about to notify you. ;-)

and, by the way, I need to track down who "mla" is...is that you?

Yes, (M)arcus (La)nge.

I notice this page...

http://download.openoffice.org/other.html#tested-full

uh...has changed quite a bit and now "Download" is substituted in many
cases for the version number. Was this on purpose?

"Download" is to indicate the most current version and everything older is named by its version number. This is done since a few 3.x releases.

Also, with the testing I'm doing, if I disable javascript, the checkbox
goes away (well that's OK).

But I will also point out the instructions just won't work at all if the
chekcbox is NOT available/showing.It is virtually impossible to take out
the "-wJRE" on the fly. At this point, the link has already been
generated. So, maybe these instructions need to be changed?
Or...something else.

The checkbox is generated with JavaSript. So, no JS --> no checkbox.

But with JS enabled IMHO it should be possible to exchange the link because it's already working on the "other.html" and "all_rc.html" webpages.

But anyway, thanks for the info...this is indeed an interesting problem
to say the least.

Yeah, seems to be really tricky. If my knowledge about JS would be better I could be of better help. ;-(

Good night.

Hello Kay,

I've added some more exceptions for the JRE checkbox as Linux x86-64 RPM
and Solaris x86/Sparc is only available with JRE and Linux HPPA, S390X,
PPC, IA64 and SDK only without JRE. The "index.html" includes the global
"download.js", therefore it applies also to the test section.

So, when the browser tells, e.g., OS=Solaris, then always a download
link with wJRE builds should be offered, regardless if the checkbox is
checked or not. Linux 32/64 Debian always without JRE. And so on.

The label text for the checkbox is updated.

Best regards

Marcus

Hi--a quick update on this.

I am making progress but NOT QUITE THERE yet! :(

This is one of those cart before the horse issues (things changed later
in the page but how to propagate them up), and well, some solved but ONE
problem still remaining -- a function call to openItem that needs a URL
fix. The inline ones I got to mess with through some JS.

my  test area is at --
http://download.openoffice.org/test/index_k.html

more later...

Hi Bernhard,

Could you divide the light green area in two areas? The upper in
darker green (like the lower border of the upper area) and only the
lower in light green.
I don't know if I hit the colors but the areas are now divided.

People intending to download directly will notice hover effect only if
they are over the main download area, while clicking on the
with/without JRE area will just toggle the checkmark.

This would help to understand the different purposes of the two parts
actually combined in the light green area.
Yes, the different events/actions need different areas. But, hm, do you
really want to have 3 green areas? OK, here you are. :-)

PS: With a smaller window the new text is wrapped sub-optimal IMHO...
Fixed with the checkbox code inside a <p> section.

(and the background images for hover are visible below the normal
ones...)
If this is not reproducible with your browser and about 800px window
width (look at RC and dev-OOo downloads), I'll upload a screenshot
(SeaMonkey 2.0.4, Firefox 3.6.3)
This looks indeed quite ugly. Needs to be fixed (by an CSS expert).

Best regards

Marcus
