Re: [Codestriker-user] Break into horizontal scrolling panes ?

[Dean A. <dea...@pa...>]

I'm attaching a sample piece of html (hope it gets thru).

It accomplishes most of what I'm after. It works in FF and Chrome, but of course, not in IE (I tested IE8). I haven't tested safari or opera yet.

However, I'm not certain where to make the incision to inject this into the templates. Its going to add a div around the tables used for the old/new sources, and adds a bit of JS.

Question: will the delta view always pad the shorter file to the same # of lines as the longer ? This hack seems to handle different file sizes OK, but to be usable both panes have to have vertical scrollbars; whereas if both are the same length, then the vertical scroll can be hidden on the left (or the right) pane.

If you can mark the spot to inject this, I'll hack and give it a whirl.

TIA,
