javascript for internet explorer 6 and might drop javascript for internet 
explorer 7.

FWIW, this is what OLPC did for Sugar, a decade ago, using
stroke_color and fill_color entities in the SVG:

This is a slightly more-flexible approach if you want to move beyond
single-color icons (for which grunticon seems to be adequate).

[Wikitech-l] Static functions usable in LocalSettings.php

[Seb35]

Hello,

Sometimes in LocalSettings.php or in extensions settings one want to do simple 
computations on the namespaces or related to the Git branch in a development 
environment. Unfortunately this is not (resp. no more) really possible, because 
LocalSettings.php is loaded before GlobalFunctions.php and Setup.php.

Is it a good practice to do that? If yes, is it possible to either:
* "tag" some static functions in some classes to avoid these to include hooks 
and other global functions and variables (loaded later), and/or
* move before (in loading order) some global functions and variables to make 
them usable (e.g. wfDebugLog, wfRunHooks, $wgCanonicalNamespaceNames)
?


Details for namespaces: $wgCanonicalNamespaceNames is defined in Setup.php, making 
MWNamespace::getCanonicalNamespaces() and MWNamespace::getValidNamespaces() unusable 
in LocalSettings.php to e.g. compute namespaces where an extension could be enabled 
.

Details for Git version: until two months it worked, but some wfDebugLog was 
introduced (defined in GlobalFunctions.php), making it unusable in 
LocalSettings.php.

~ Seb35 [^_^]

If you need to do something like that, you should probably make a
callback function, and add that to $wgExtensionFunctions.

Congrats PleaseStand. I had honestly forgotten that you didn't already have +2.
