[Wikitech-l] ERR_INVALID_REQ when trying upload a file with API
Hi, when I try to upload a file with the API (Request: http://toolserver.org/~jan/files/APIUploadREQError.txt), I get the following error: Request: [unknown method] [no URL], from via amssq35.esams.wikimedia.org (squid/2.7.STABLE7) to [unknown host] ([unknown]) Error: ERR_INVALID_REQ, errno [No Error] at Sun, 02 Jan 2011 09:43:01 GMT Can you help me?

That code is a mess... but as long as you have that second hook things
will work. Monobook and other skins will use the first hook and Vector
will use the second up to 1.17, in 1.18 all skins will use the second hook.
I would suggest not depending on the exact order and equality of class
strings, it's possible that future code changes may add new classes or
change the order of those.
My code changes might affect your 'watch' use in that code, don't know
if that's a good thing or not. Previously Vector built the watch tab
conditionally based on the use watch icon setting. If it was enabled
watch ended up inside views instead of actions. Now the watch tab is
'always' put into actions... vector relocates it to views and turns the
icon on afterwards if that feature is enabled.
And yes, in 1.17 and before SkinTemplateTabs is run in vector but
ignored... that's because it's SkinTemplate that runs it, so all of our
normal skins run it whether they use it to build tabs or not. It's not
really anything special if you look over SkinTemplate... SkinTemplate
basically preloads whatever QuickTemplate based template you have with a
bunch of skin keys with data and then executes the template... it
doesn't build them on demand or anything.

[Wikitech-l] SpecialPages and Related users and titles
The way you completely lose your page tabs when switching to Special:MovePage has been a bother to me for awhile... it's bad interface design to have a set of tabs linking to other pages with the same set of tabs, but to have a single one of them strangely point to a page where those tabs completely disappear. 1.18 has a new feature now. From a special page you can call $skin->setRelatedTitle and $skin->setRelatedTitle. Calling setRelatedTitle will mark a title as relevant to the current page, doing so will cause some parts of the ui (namely the page tabs) to display things relevant to that page. Calling setRelatedUser likewise will cause some parts of the ui (namely the toolbox) to display things that they would display if you were on the user's userpage. These methods are currently used by Special:MovePage (title), Special:Undelete (title), Special:Contributions (user), and Special:BlockIp (user). If you have another special page you feel is relevant enough to use these methods feel free to tweak it's code. -- ~Daniel Friesen (Dantman, Nadir-Seen-Fire) [http://daniel.friesen.name] ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

Oh: you were suggesting that *his demonstrator* not show the plaintext edit tabs. Well, remember that those looking at it to evaluate it will *also* note that they're missing; this will have an effect on people's perceptions one way or the other, even though it's not a production implementation.

Oh god! *Run*! :-) This has been done a dozen times in the last 5 years, lampak. The short version, as much as *I* am displeased with the fact that we'll never have *bold*, /italic/ and _underscore_, is that the installed base, both of articles and editors, means that Mediawikitext will never change. It *might* be possible to *extend* it, but that requires that at least one of the 94 projects to write a formally defined parser for it, in something resembling yacc, would have to complete -- and to my knowledge, none has done so.

If you remember to in the future, please include links to the specific code revisions you're referring to. This helps people understand what you're talking about and comment on the revisions as appropriate without having to hunt. I assume you're referring to these revisions: * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/79398 * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/79399 It looks like a nice usability fix. :-) (Now to get Special:MovePage turned into ?action=move) MZMcBride ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
