Good Stuff Tomorrow. I can't wait to hear Russell's rant. In Roller News, I found that the expanding folders seen on this site - while they work - do not validate. The javascript doesn't need to care that I just used the folder names as ids, but the validator does. So I'll experiment with changing those to plus signs (+) or maybe a dash (-). Also, I need to fix the editor UI. I should have time to do this tomorrow. Posted in Roller at Oct 08 2002, 03:08:38 PM MDT Add a Comment

Looks like Russell's almost back. From http://www.beattie.info/notebook/:

Roller 0.9.6-rc1, Issue #2. The good news is that the upgrade is complete and you're lookin' at it! The bad news if I've found a few more bugs - they're in my code though, so I'll fix them.

  1. When you load the Website Settings screen, a javascript error occurs when trying to set focus on the "name" textbox. I think this is because there is a hidden field called "name" as well as a displayed one. Dave, do we need this hidden field?
  2. The text on the tabs in the editor have too much of a margin underneath them, I will fix this and check it in.

Roller 0.9.6-rc1, Issue #1. The web.xml file does not contain the tag library definitions. I verified this in both in this download and in CVS. It looks like the tablibs.xml file is missing actually :( BTW, there was a bug in the file that used to be there - it was referring to struts.tld and struts-form.tld which are both from Struts v0.5. I removed struts.tld on this site and replaced struts-form with struts-html. Posted in Roller at Oct 08 2002, 05:52:46 AM MDT Add a Comment

Roller Upgrade. So the 4 a.m. bit didn't work - I hit snooze too many times. I think I'll try to do it during the JSF Chat this morning. Posted in Roller at Oct 08 2002, 01:56:06 AM MDT Add a Comment
