Hello Pavel and Paul V particularly,
In recent days I've done the following changes:
1. Altered and updated ../images/fb_menu.js and replaced all of the
PNG graphics with new ones. Also fixed a bug in the script that was
causing the topmenu not to be rendered in Konqueror-based browsers
and to throw exceptions in Mac Safari browser.
2. Added two new global variables to ./config.php for use by the
sidebox routine in mainfile.php
3. Altered the sidebox routine so it now takes a third, defaulted
argument. Any call to sidebox() can now optionally take this third argument.
The argument is used to decide whether to insert a rounded top or
bottom piece before or after the item, respectively. So, for the
very first thing on your sidemenu, you should call sidebox($title,
$content, 1), while for the last, pass 2 in the last argument. Other
items can be just called with the two required arguments, as always,
sidebox($title,$content).
Note that what you do depends on whether your sidemenu is
nested. Don't use the '2' argument on a nested sidemenu, because the
call has already been applied to the default higher-level menu.
Paul V, the impact on you is the assignment of the value 1 to a
variable $isempty for the ./engine/doc sidemenu, that will get passed
when your empty sidemenu is included ahead of the default menu, and
cause the rounded top to be rendered there.
AFAIK, I've made the necessary adjustments to all of the affected
sidemenu.php files but please, anyone who spots a sidemenu with a
flat top or bottom, please post a msg to the list with details.
Other global components in the root area have all changed to
implement the various look-and-feel changes so please, make sure you
download the server version of anything you are going to alter and
post an immediate message when you do so.
All: Pavel has plans to put the website under SVN when a few other
high-pressure commitments subside. I'll leave it to him to explain
what's needed when that time arrives.
cheers,
Helen
