I vote that we wrap things up, like yesterday, because I'm shipping an RC tomorrow. I think we should see if we can't get a good fix for the IE5/Mac bug, and then say, "done", because that's the only thing I bro ...Continue Reading

Regarding the checkbox & radio-button borders that still appear in many browsers... I vote for adding customizable classes to the checkbox and radio elements...*whether or not* we then use those classes to fix the currently styled input borders, or remove the border styling altogether (and let all input types revert to their browser defaults). My reason is simple: I'd like the freedom to customize those different input types built-in to the program, rather than having to change thirty different template files mys ...Continue Reading

Re: RC1 pushed to Tuesday - RFC on cute name for dada_bridge.pl?

>Mystery Girl is the Bounce Handler (dada_bounce_handler.pl) >Beatitude is the mail scheduler (scheduled_mailings.pl) >???? is the discussion list plugin (dada_bridge.pl) How about Nepomuk ? Nepomuk is the patron saint of the bridges, and he was a man on the contrary to wisdom girl and beautitude. In case you don't like saints and rather stay with ideals ... then I'd choose WISDOM (would be good for discussions) - but I prefer nepomuk :-) ...Continue Reading

RC1 pushed to Tuesday - RFC on cute name for dada_bridge.pl?

September 3rd 2005 PDT

Heya, I forgot Monday is Labor day here in the states, some I'm going to push back the release of, RC1 until Tuesday. Also, I was sort of wondering if anyone would like to propose a cutesy name for dada_bridge.pl: Mystery Girl is the Bounce Handler (dada_bounce_handler.pl) Beatitude is the mail scheduler (scheduled_mailings.pl) ???? is the discussion list plugin (dada_bridge.pl) Perchance the name could have something pertaining to, "bridging" the gap between Dada Mail and your mail reader, or peopl ...Continue Reading

*Remove the border styling from/ all/ input types.* If we remove all border rules from the input{} rule set,/ all/ <input> types -- checkboxes, radio buttons, and text fields alike -- will be displayed using their browser defaults. My vote for this solution, because: - browser defaults are what visitors are used to see on the browser they use every day. - it is important that basic internet interface elements stay the same to build and keep trust - input fields would anyway always have a border won't they? - bo ...Continue Reading

[dadadev] Re: IE 5/Mac Template Breakage/body{} q's See, I told you we were close! :-) And since I've now slept on it, I'm thinking that the solution in my testfixC might be the best (cleanest and easiest to understand) over all.... But first: For those of you who missed it, here's Manfred's latest screenshot: Manfred wrote: > The effect I meant was...that distance A (marked in RED at the right) above the heading line is wider than distance B. In case, that is the correct behaviour, we are ...Continue Reading

Re: IE 5/Mac Template Breakage/body{} q's

September 3rd 2005 PDT

Sorry Shane I needed some sleep in between :-) So here are the MSIE/Mac 5.1.7 Mac OS9 results. As far as the header is concerned, all three Template Breakage/body{} fixes http://a-ok.net/dadadev/2.10b1-floatclearing_testfixA.html, testfixB.html, testfixC.html work fine in MSIE/Mac 5.1.7, Mozilla 1.2.1 and in Opera 6.03 as well --> http://www.hobbysommer.net/web/testfix.html so as for the header, it looks like you found a solution and can probably use the preferred testfixB version. By "bigger", do you m ...Continue Reading

> Sheesh -- you guys are looking at pretty subtle differences.  As Manfred discovered, my last round of problems certainly weren't subtle in OS9!
