English template

Post by digininja »

The templates when displayed in English and a couple of other languages are broken. The left hand menu div is appearing down the right hand side so pushing the main content div down beneath it.

1.5.0 RC1 from CVS

Multiple notes about formatting, and behaviour.

I'm noticing the same layout problems with the CSS - no tables, and just divs, with lots of "float: left;" which doesn't seem to want to flow properly under Mozilla 1.7.2. I'll give an ascii example, as I can't figure out how to get a jpg in under 10 kb.

header-header-header-header-header-header
link---link---link---link--link
....................................................category
....................................................category
....................................................category
....................................................category
....................................................category
....................................................category
....................................................Search-Box
....................................................Language-box
....................................News Item News Item | Top-Ten-Box
....................................news blah newsblah
....................................news blah news blah
....................................Last-Five-box
....................................Footer

There. I note things get back in line if I shrink the width of the browser window below 600px (or is that 480px? ) - seems to relate to the length of the header-links section plus columns- if I reduce width, she works.

I note that the startup CSS for the 1.5.0 RC2 ... erm... sucks. I can probably hack it up to work, but I don't really know what I can and what I shouldn't munge in relation to the template files. I'm aware that this is how the CSS is being displayed in the browser (Mozilla-1.7.2), but I don't really know how to fix that. It's not a problem with the phpmyfaq itself, just the CSS.

The presentation (aside from the CSS) is very clean, which I rather like. So far, I'm only seeing odd little "glitches" in the interface, and storing items into the database occasionally returns odd results such as:
Notice: Undefined index: lang in /var/www/html/phpmyfaq/admin/record.add.php on line 57
>>>>>>> 1.14
Also, I note that when I'm in the WYSIWYSOG editor, the Mozilla throbber constantly changes, as if the browser is constantly downloading. I have no real complaints other than that, the editor works like I'd expect.

The final item that I have noticed is that everywhere seems to be marked with 1.5.0-RC1, not 2
though I downloaded 1.5.0 RC2 zip file. From what I could figure out of the German I don't know, this is probably in the footer.php somewhere.

Cheers, The Viking

Hi,

the layout in 1.5 isn't finished yet, as stated in README.

The fact that RC2 calls itself as RC1 is a known bug. It should be fixed with RC3. ;-)
