Proofread request for patch which fixes double words
Hi all, I applied a small script on www.debian.org and found again many many typos where words occur twice. I attached attached a patch which fixes these (for english/ only!!). I'm not sure about the following which is NOT included in my patch. Please check: ./News/1998/19980522a.wml:packages have have been allowed into the distribution as long as they were ./security/1998/19981126.wml:If you have have installed fsp and a FTP daemon, and do not want to have ./vote/2002/platforms/raphael.wml:that just have have to be checked (by the main team). The patch contains also changes to devel/constitution* and devel/secretary. Please confirm that it's OK to touch these files. (PS: The fonts in the last mentioned file look strange and seem to differ from other web pages, is this wanted!?) It would be nice if someone could proofread this patch. I remember that I "improved" once a package documentation in a similar way where I was wrong (English grammer!). Isn't it surprising how many typos can still be found in English pages?

IMO building only English pages is fine. Some pages need data fetched from scripts found in http://cvs.debian.org/cron/?cvsroot=webwml Scripts under parts/ are run before every build. lessoften only daily. So do not be afraid if some pages do not build cleanly, and do not lose your time trying to fix them, it isn't worth. > If someone wants to have a look later (not online yet): The pages will > be at > > http://www.witch.westfalen.de/debian/dwww/ > screenshots will be at > http://www.witch.westfalen.de/debian/screenshots/ > > hope I get something ready tonight. Great, please send here your patches against english/template/debian when they are ready. I reviewed all *.pl files under webwml, and english/News/weekly/makemail.pl is the only script parsing generated HTML files, so we have to check that your changes do not break this script. We must also check that these changes do not break nm.debian.org, it include files from the webwml tree. Denis

Your last sentence is the key point; XHTML has nothing to do with the subject of this thread, so do not discuss this issue here and let us focus on CSS. HTML pages are generated from templates and some scripts, as described in http://www.debian.org/devel/website/ Modifying the generated HTML pages to replace tables by CSS is quite trivial, but as you notice the main problem is to have these changes accepted. If you have access to different browsers, you may put screenshots online to show that rendering is identical. Martin Schulze had a valid argument, some scripts are parsing HTML or source files. It is likely that they won't notice the move to CSS, and I will check later that this is indeed the case. Denis
