next default template to build 261

[rejetto]

guys, this took me several hours.
it's my idea for the next default template.
still unfinished, some things are yet to come.
i know is not the nicest thing around, but i'm trying to not use extra images.
it's meant to be cross-browser (i forgot to test chrome/safari) and no-script compatible.
comments and contributions are welcome.

Nice!

There is a small error in line 104

< is missing here :

<button onclick = '.......

I tested it a little ... To be continued ...

[SilentPliz]

I like the highlighted selections ... good idea

... Ideally, it would be nice, when you select multiple items, you can deselect them by clicking only on one of them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
By cons I find quite annoying the borders around all the clickables stuff.

Since you are launched in JavaScript, why you will not incorporate this kind of thing:

I tried at one time, but my knowledge of scripts are rather limited.

It seemed in all cases more affordable than flash applets

c'est déjà le cas mais t'as pas du cliquer au bon endroit

[rejetto]

i don't like java applet solutions. i find flash ones to be much lighter.

i will soon publish an update for the template.

I congratulate you on the made work of innovation, but I shall just have some small remarks to be formulated:

1-There are too many idle zones of space which lengthen  the page pointlessly.


2- The appearance of the list is not of the most finished, the blue vertical separators of each side of names or boxes of text make more ornamental than useful, to preserve a zone of checkbox for the selection would have more been one


3 resulting in an expansion of the web page that causes the use of elevators in several copies and that react badly with using the wheelmouse


And this is only first impressions: appearance between firefox and ie is totally different.

New template looks better than actual, but there are some styling problems - not a problem of css, but a problem of different browsers.

For example, what mars sees as vertical bars delimiting the itemname, in FF shows correctly as blue border like on the elements on the left side.
I suggest you to remove borders and to use  a style-element (for example item) and tu apply 'item:hover backgroundcolor...' on <td class="item">
on the item field, this avoids problems with padding and borders in different browsers.

Also y suggest to limit the width of the leftblock with a maxwidth <div>

[SilentPliz]

... it would be nice also leave comments (for files & folders) in the usual place, for if they are too widest, the new menu take too much space.

Edit :

@Mars
On devrait censurer des images comme celles-ci !

For example, what mars sees as vertical bars delimiting the itemname, in FF shows correctly as blue border like on the elements on the left side.

just change those lines and works on twice brosers

#panel { width:40%; float:left; margin-top:1em; margin-left:1em;  margin-right:1.5em; }

a { text-decoration:none; color:#47c; border:0px solid transparent; padding:0.2em 0; }

mars uses IE6. 
i will work now to improve compatibility with it, although i'm doubtful.
in attachment the expected look of the template.

[rejetto]

re-download the attachment at first post.
it's an updated version.
it has also a first attempt for improving IE6 compatibility.

That's better!

Tests done with Firefox 3.5.8, IE8 (compatibility & standard modes), Opera 10.
The result is homogenic, and the annoying defects, seem to have disappeared.

Hi Rejetto,
the new template looks nice. I tested it on IE8 and it works perfectly.

my 2 euro cents - I found this features very useful and in my opinion shall be part of default template:
- the possibility to create a folder
- possibility to add a comment to the uploaded file
- function for the user to change her/his password

As you are working on the template, maybe you can also fix the bug with the Progress Frame which does not work with browsers different from IE

The new template cannot work if hfs is not connected to internet (self test successful ).

The cause is the use of a external javascript library.

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.js"></script>

Two solutions offer themselves to us:

1 - Load this file as resource interns in hfs, so that it is always available, but what blocks eventually the updates of this file.

2 - Add in hfs the possibility of loading a template in the form of an archive zip which would contain all the necessary resources, this principle is used in some GPS software to allow an overload of the resources (on the same principle as the css and its syntax)
