I figured out that at the university's server php 4 is running. http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~uwp/fvwm-web/php_info.php I will switch to php 4 at home as well. > I'll hack up a test page and send it to you a little > later; try it out and let me know whether it works OK on > your system.

Yes the screenshot subdirectory was an accident :-) We might switch to screen_shot. > Ah, that reminds me...what are the implications for > running navgen in a merged directory? (That one also > appears to have some PHP 3/4 incompatibilities that I > haven't had time to research thoroughly yet.) nagven.php looks recursively for files having a .php extension and includes them. It extracts the variable settings in the header of the php-files, does some consistency checks and stores the contents of the variables in the file navgen_write/navigation.inc. On my server at home the apacher server has the permission to write into this directory. I would suggest to do not allow this on fvwm.org since a writeable directoy is potentially a security issue. > > How about the actual colors and window decoration?

You can try different colors on your own by specifying them in the url like: http://localhost/uwe/fvwm_web_site/?pager_bg=%23ffff66 Please note that this variable is not passed through links to other pages. Other possible changes to the actual layout and their default value are: if(!isset($decoration_path)) $decoration_path=$rel_path."/decorations/window_deco_simple_blue"; if(!isset($window_border_bg)) $window_border_bg="#c5cecd"; if(!isset($window_border_fg)) $window_border_fg="#ffffff"; if(!isset($window_bg)) $window_bg="#000000"; if(!isset($window_fg)) $window_fg="#ffffff"; if(!isset($body_bg)) $body_bg="#000000"; if(!isset($body_fg)) $body_fg="#ffffff"; if(!isset($body_bg_image)) $body_bg_image=$rel_path."/pictures/Totally-New-Product-1.jpg"; if(!isset($menu_bg)) $menu_bg="#c5cecd"; if(!isset($menu_fg)) $menu_fg="#000000"; if(!isset($windowlist_bg)) $windowlist_bg="#c5cecd"; if(!isset($windowlist_fg)) $windowlist_fg="#000000"; if(!isset($pager_bg)) $pager_bg="#b5bebd"; if(!isset($pager_fg)) $pager_fg="#000000"; if(!isset($hilight_bg)) $hilight_bg="#1a6e99"; if(!isset($hilight_fg)) $hilight_fg="#ffffff"; For example to change the background image using a file on the local machine one could use: http://localhost/uwe/fvwm_web_site/?body_bg_image=file:/home/uwe/pictures/azure.jpg Uwe -- +---------------------------------------------- | Uwe Pross | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~uwp +---------------------------------------------- -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
