Re: [Ids-devel] More IDS fun (bugfix and MultiUser)

[John M. <mo...@mu...>]

Great patch. I'm almost inspired to start work on 0.71/ or 0.8.  : )

I like your multi-users idea a lot=96 it's a lot simpler than the=20
grandiose schemes I've been pondering. I wonder how we could allow these=20=

folks to use a limited version of the admin CGI...

A single slash was all it took to get linked albums to work? Argh!

Here's 0.7b2:

http://arwen.hn.org/~john/ids-0.7b2.tar.gz

  It includes Jon's linked album patch and a couple of other changes:
- A survey of nearby browsers suggests that the world isn't really for=20=

Unicode (UTF-8) text, so I changed all of the localization files to the=20=

"iso-8859-1" character set.
- All of the templates now adhere to the XHTML 1.0 standard with the=20
exception of Stealth and Ziggo, which use non-supported tags to set=20
their margins on browsers that don't support setting the margins via a=20=

CSS.
