Ok, back at http://hank.org:5000
I think I like the search box at the top. That's a common place on many sites. Then the side-bar search can go away, which I think makes Stas happy.
+1. It's ok.. and it has all the options. The button is a little too different in style from the rest though (but that's exactly what you said below :)
- Need a better "go" button, and a little less tall. Who's handy in The Gimp/Photoshop?
- I moved the navigation to the far left. The search far left was ugly. Could argue that then the navigation top doesn't line up with the navigation at the bottom. Or, on the other hand, one could argue that it follows the flow of the text with the prev the first thing on the left side of the page, and the next at the bottom right. I just think it looks better with the with the search on the right.
+-0
BTW -- does anyone else think that the Prev|Next images are a bit big or over powering? What about http://hank.org:5000/test1/docs/index.html?
No, I kind of like them as they are. -1
- Let's move the [SRC][PDF] to the bottom of the page. The vast majority of people will view in html, after all, so why clutter up the header with that.
I think they should stay... maybe on the bottom too.
- There's really too many choices in the search drop down box. I think we could get by with just the top level dirs, and maybe docs/1.0 docs/2.0. Although I could see limiting searches to the guide, I suppose. In other words, it's too many choices for most, but for a few it will be helpful. It's not a big issues, so I'm +0.
What about making available a few choices on the top-level, then when you get lower, it restricts the choices to top-level and to any choices within your section or below it?
- I don't really think we need the tree display, Stas. Just use a drop-down box on the "advanced" form would work. I just can't see someone selecting more than one check box. But it is a cool feature...
- I'm using px settings for the input and select styles. Might need to fix that.
- Stas, the navbar_local_top calls [%- INCLUDE search_field -%], the search_field does a [% PROCESS search_options %], which is an array and hash for labels. What I need is a way to then copy "search_options" to the dst_html/search directory so the cgi script can PROCESS it.
- I tested on NS4.0, IE6, mozilla in Win98, and Galeon, mozilla, Konqueror under Linux.
Konqueror doesn't right justify the search stuff, nor the camel. Camel is follows after the bread-crumb.
- Can I remove the side-bar search? Can I cvs ci?
Other misc while I'm here:
- .htaccess is not working, but I can't find the problem. I even looked at the cvs diffs and still missed the problem. Apache is not very helpful:
[Wed Apr 17 17:57:23 2002] [alert] [client 192.168.0.98] /data/_g/lii/modperl-docs/dst_html/.htaccess: Redirect takes two or three arguments, an optional status, then document to be redirected and destination URL
I'd rather see "Error on line 12"!
aarrggghhh.. must be my error: I added some 20 redirects the other day and one must be wrong.
Hers is the patch (Stas, take this one!)
Sorry about that.
