Fw: [Web-erp-developers] User Settings

By the way, DisplayRecordsMax and Theme will default to the settings in =
config.php if they are left blank in the user settings.

Ok, it has a user setting for theme.  I was too lazy right now to make a =
combo box and load into it the theme names so you have to type the theme =
name: professional or default.  I'll do that later.  It does not take =
effect the very next page load though, it takes affect the second time =
you load a page.  I believe it's because the theme is already loaded by =
the time it gets changed on the page reload.  Not sure if there's a way =
to force a reload of the css. =20

It may be the case that some who cache do not get the new theme until =
logging out and back in.

    I have added user settings to my copy at =
http://weberp.gocom.ca/weberpcvstest.  The last menu option is Settings =
which is the current user's settings that they can modify.  There are =
only two settings right now: Number of Records to Display =
($DisplayRecordsMax) and Enable Javascript ($EnableJavascript).

    To see, try going to Select Customer then type in "a" to search for =
all records with an "a".  It will page according to the user's current =
settings.  Now, go into Settings > User Settings and modify Number of =
Records to Display.  Go back to Select Customer and search on "a" again. =
 Notice the paging has changed to what you changed.

    We now have an area for users to "customize" their environment.  =
Adding more user settings is easy.  This is assuming that Phil and =
others want it in the cvs...

    The settings get set in session.inc by using a $_SESSION variable.  =
In this way the settings are always handy.  When the user changes their =
settings they are updated in both database and session variable so it is =
on-the-fly changed.
