Difference: BlueSkin (2 vs. 3)

Revision 307 Jan 2005 - Main.ThorstenSommermann

Line: 1 to 1
 
META TOPICPARENT name="TWikiPreferences"
My goal was always to find a webpage which can be rendered by all currently available webbrowsers with nearly no rendering problems. But as everybody knows - this is a heavy task, as most browsers render different. One day I discovered the Open Source Web Developers network. They offer templates under GPL for webpages with no graphical components on them, without Javascript and without Flash, etc. So pure HTML and CSS are provided. Hmm - but also those basic formats lead to different results in browsers.

BlueSkin should be rendered correctly (and tested by me) with Konqueror (>KDE 3.2), Firefox 1.0, Internet Explorer 6.0+. All Browsers should accept Javascript. Opera 7.x doesn't seem to work roll eyes (sarcastic) !"§$%& mad! !!!

BlueSkin should be rendered correctly now with all major browsers including MSIE, Opera, Firefox/Mozilla and Konqueror. Javascript has to be turned on.

Do the following changes to your TWikiPreferences section:

Alter the WEBTOPICLIST to display correctly within BlueSkin environment

Set the WEBTOPICLIST variable to something like this ( or similar ). This will be rendered in the Navigation area of the page:

* Set WEBTOPICLIST = [[WebChanges][&amp;rsaquo; Changes]]\n[[WebIndex][&amp;rsaquo; Index]]\n[<nop>[<nop>WebSearch][&amp;rsaquo; Search]]=

Create a new Section BlueSkin under TWikiPreferences Skins

---+++ BlueSkin
   * BlueSkin customization
      * Set TOOLBOX = &nbsp;&nbsp;<form action="%SCRIPTURLPATH%/search%SCRIPTSUFFIX%/%WEB%/SearchResult"><input type="text" name="search" size="16" /> <input type="submit" value="Find"/></form><br/><br/>
      * Set SIDEBARHEADER1 = Use this web to...
      * Set SIDEBARTEXT1 = %SITEMAPUSETO%
      * Set SIDEBARHEADER2 = Current Webs
      * Set SIDEBARTEXT2 =  %WEBLIST{"[[$name.%HOMETOPIC%][$name]]"}%
      * Set SIDEBARNAVIGATIONTITLE = Navigation
      * Set SIDEBARTOOLBOXTITLE = Toolbox

SIDEBARNAVIGATIONTITLE
Title for Website navigation such as Index, Webchanges, etc. Content of the navigation box will be filled by the %WEBTOPICLIST% variable. This can be globally defined in TWikiPreferences and should be overwritten in the WebPreferences Topic.

SIDEBARHEADER1, SIDEBARHEADER2
Titles used for general purpose boxes. Those boxes can be used for further web details like webspecific functions.

SIDEBARTEXT1, SIDEBARTEXT2
Content of the general boxes. I put %SITEMAPUSETO% in one box to show how to implement the sitemap description for the web.

SIDEBARTOOLBOXTITLE
Title for the Toolbox containing various stuff to be displayed. For instance use this to display a GO or SEARCH field with button

If you have a valid PatternSkin installation, you can use your WebLeftBar menu to show up in BlueSkin, otherwise create a WebLeftBar topic. It will be included on the left.
 

Alter some settings in TWikiPreferences and TablePlugin to make BlueSkin look better

Line: 83 to 48
 * New Link Symbol
  • Set NEWTOPICLINKSYMBOL =
Changed:

There is a small encircled star as a creation symbol for the new topic link. It is located in the pub directory.

There is a small encircled star as a creation symbol for the new topic link. It is located in the pub directory. ALERT! Adjust the src attribute !
 
* Set TABLEATTRIBUTES = tableborder="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2" headerbg="#8CAAE6" headercolor="003399" databg="#8CAAE6, #EEEEEE"
