What seems to be everyone's generic idea on templates? What types are you running into, what special mods are you making? What browsers are you gearing them toward? Just wondering what the community thinks. ~ Nick </ni...@so...> -- Guns don't kill people, Ninjas do. |

Hi! You and I have been pretty much discussing this in the forums but perhaps the other people in the list will be interested in having a look at the thread: http://plog.bliang.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=129 I think that first of all, we should design a new and nice default template. I liked for example this one: http://blog.socklabs.com/. Simple yet effective. I think that with the input from everybody here we can create an style, which will be the default from now on, with enough personality and style. It should also be XHTML 1.0+CSS (using the "Strict" definition of XHTML, if possible) because nowadays even some mobile phones are capable of correctly rendering XHTML. Also things like WAI are quite important. WAI is an standard from the W3C focused towards the accessibility of web sites, and you can have a look at a quick summary here: http://www.tinhat.com/accessibility/wai_a.html. I think it would be very good if we could provide our users with a nice default style which is 100% compatible with standards as well as being 100% accessible. I don't think many other blogging tools can say the same! Let's see what other people have to say here :) Oscar.

Hi! Hmmmm... I think it's a bit too dark in my opinion. I like brighter colours, don't know about everybody else... Regards, Oscar.

Btw, just checked the forum (http://plog.bliang.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=137) where you posted a link to your mother's blog... I hav to say I really liked that one!! How about suggesting that one as the future default template? I tested it and it looks great in Safari, Camino and IE 5.2 in OS X... (uuh, you can all guess now what kind of new laptop I got :))) Is it xhtml? It looked so to me but when I tried to validate using validator.w3.org it complained that there was not enough meta information availabe to detect the docuemt type (easier to fix than to explain), so add the following to the very top of the header.template: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> How about accessibility? Did you have a look at the WAI accessibility requirements? (http://www.w3.org/WAI/) You can validate a page agains the WAI accessibility standards using Bobby (http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/html/en/index.jsp) You'll find out about things that you probably never thought of before... But interesting indeed! Regards, Oscar. On 26 Jan 2004, at 22:28, Nick Gerakines wrote: > What seems to be everyone's generic idea on templates?

Btw, I put your template up for download in SourceForge, though I had a few problems with it... Did it really ever work for you? You can have a look at the changes I made (have a look at error.template and post.template) if you wish. Oscar.

Hi! I was thinking that we still have some time before we can call 0.3 complete, so I was wondering if we could take that blueish template that you designed for your mother and turn it into the default one from now on. I really liked it :), and I didn't hear any opinion against it! (well, neither any supporting it :P) Could you send it to me someday? Before it is ready, we need to add 3 templates to it: albums.template, album.template and resource.template, which are the new templates needed to deal with resources on the public side of the blog. Albums.template will show a list of the top level albums, album.template will show the contents of an album and resource.template will show a resource, be it a picture, a video or a zip file. If you have code for 0.3 from cvs, have a look at for example the grey template set, as you can probably copy and paste the code needed and only change the design. If you don't have the time or the energy I can make sure that the templates are xhtml 1.0 compliant and also check that they follow the accessibility guidelines, no problem. Regards, Oscar.

I updated my site to use the 0.3 (cvs as of 3 feb 04) and made the main conversions for it already. I'll go back and make sure its xhtml ok and then send it your way. ~ Nick On Thu, 2004-02-05 at 22:29, Oscar Renalias wrote: > Hi! >=20 > I was thinking that we still have some time before we can call 0.3=20 > complete, so I was wondering if we could take that blueish template=20 > that you designed for your mother and turn it into the default one from=20 > now on.

Howdy, I've been toying with the gallery classes and a couple items were curious. In galleryalbum.class.php and galleryresource.class.php , i'm going to assumed that getOwnerId() returns the user id who created the gallery or resource. In the end of galleryresource.class.php i added a small function to return a rounded file size like 120 KB or 3.5 MB. Posted below. |--------- Begin snippet function getRoundedSize(){ $fileParts =3D explode( ".", $this->getFileName()); $fileExt =3D $fileParts[count($fileParts)-1]; $fileName =3D RESOURCES_STORAGE_FOLDER.$this->getOwnerId()."/".$this->getOwnerId()."-".$t= his->getId().".".$fileExt; $file =3D new File( $fileName ); $file->open(); $size =3D $file->getSize(); if ($size < pow(2,10)) return $size." bytes"; if ($size >=3D pow(2,10) && $size < pow(2,20)) return round($size / pow(2,10), 0)." KB"; if ($size >=3D pow(2,20) && $size < pow(2,30)) return round($size / pow(2,20), 1)." MB"; if ($size > pow(2,30)) return round($size / pow(2,30), 2)." GB"; } |--------- End Snippet I'm almost done with the albums and resources templates. ~ Nick --=20 Guns don't kill people, Ninjas do. |

In the gallery library, when we say "owner" we mean to which blog it belongs. It was done so (even though it's a little confusing) because the gallery library is meant to be distributed as an stand-alone library that can be used in some other project. Once its api has become stable, we'll make a nice package out of it and release it. We did so because if this library is used in some other project, we didn't think that it would have anything to do with blogs and so getOwnerId() is, semantically speaking, more informative and easier to use than getBlogId(). But for us, in this case, owner=blog :) > In the end of galleryresource.class.php i added a small function to > return a rounded file size like 120 KB or 3.5 MB. Posted below. Looks very good to me!

Finally I've committed your changes to CVS. Hope you don't mind that I've made a few changes... Quckly, this is what I've made. I've splitted your code and moved the last bit (the one that calculates the "nicer" size) to class/data/stringutils.class.php (string-related methods) so that it can be used by any other class that needs to format sizes. Regarding the first bit, you placed it in the GalleryResource class while I have placed it in the GalleryResourceBaseMetadataReader class (class/gallery/data/galleryresourcebasemetadatareader.class.php) The idea behing these "metadata readers" (I couldn't find any other more original name for them...) was to extract information from the array that the getId3 library provides (check it out, great library: http://getid3.sourceforge.net/) This library will process our files and extract as much information as possible from images, sound files, videos, etc. Since I didn't want to overload the GalleryResource class with too many methods (methods to get info from a video, methods to get info from a file, etc) I decided to follow that approach, inspired by the article here: http://www.phppatterns.com/index.php/article/articleview/92/1/1/. Anyway, the whole idea of that class is to provide information about the resource. Since the getid3 lib already provides the size of the file (have a look at the field 'metadata' from the plog_gallery_resources table) The getRoundedSize method becomes as simple as: function getRoundedSize() { return StringUtils::formatSize( $this->getFileSize()); } StringUtils::formatSize is your method. That's it. It works wonderfully :) Oscar. On 7 Feb 2004, at 21:11, Nick Gerakines wrote: > Howdy, > I've been toying with the gallery classes and a couple items were > curious.

Don't know if anyone posted this yet but i'm looking through the admin interface and seeing that other users can see albums asscoiated with blogs they don't have access too. Might want to go back and make sure when listing albums permissions are checked. My mom found this one when posting some pictures on her blog but saw the albums on my blog and the one for qtquill. ~ Nick --=20 Guns don't kill people, Ninjas do. |

Hi! I noticed the same problem yesterday and I committed the necessary changes to CVS. If you have any chance to update your code, please do so. Regards, Oscar.

Almost! It's a 15" PB... I don't have an external monitor and size wasn't a factor in this case, so I didn't want to stare at small 12" screen that can only do up to 1024x768. It's a great machine anyway :) What's the difference between Camino and Firebird? Aren't they based on the same Gecko renderer? Oscar.
