various

Hi Janko,

I have made a few minor changes that I want to share with you and are
included in the attached file:

1)   I wanted to use a different cookie for each site that may be in an
image, so have modified two methods to use 'cookieName':
HTTPRequest-idFromCookie: aCookieName and  the sender:
WebSessionManager-findOrMakeSessionFor: aRequest

2)   Swazoo 2.0 needed a couple of slight changes for my image to work:
Number-asString and SwazooServer class-isPersistent were necessary.

3)    W3C considers that it is now mandatory to have an alt statement
associated with each image so I changed:
WebImage-printHTMLPageOnforSession to include alt=''.

4)    I have created a small WebForum application (based on your
WebDiscussion app), which you might like to see:
WebForum.

I also have a question. How do you get the RichEditor to work? I have
installed tinyMCE, but I have not been able to figure out how to invoke
it. Did you create some methods within the image, or call it from the
outside?

Otherwise all is well, and I am enjoying 5.4.

Kind regards

Nicholas

Just curious, would you explain a bit more the reasons for having
different cookies for each site?

You can safely throw out that #isPersistent because it is a relict of
the past and it doesn't serve anything.

Good, by the way, did you try to validate Aida's webpages? How standard
compliant we are?

That's the same as on your page? It looks better and existing
WebDicussions really need a replacement anyway. Are you planing to
separate design to CSS too? This would be fine to do. Later then we can
change forum look just by changing its CSS.

See http://www.aidaweb.si/tinymce.html for installation and
configuration instructions. Also don't forget to change home directory
in Settings to .\ if you are on Windows.

Nice to hear that!

Best regards

I will change WebIndex so that it does not send 'isPersistent'.

Yes. There is a great browser for checking w3c conformance at:
http://www.w3.org/Amaya/. I only found a few CSS errors when I looked at
your aidaweb.si  site. The parsing error tool showed this (which is
pretty much what I get for my c4cnc.org site):

*** Errors/warnings in http://www.aidaweb.si/screen.css
  line 1: CSS property ignored: "spacing: 2px"
  line 1: CSS property ignored: "spacing-left: 0px"
  line 1: CSS property ignored: "spacing-right: 0px"

  line 1: Display value not supported "in-line"
  line 1: Display value not supported "in-line"
  line 1: CSS property ignored: "spacing: 2px"
  line 1: Display value not supported "show"
I also sub-classed AIDASite and WebAdminApp to give me greater freedom
in tailoring different sites (and so that my experimentation did not
become too hard to unravel!).
Windows! - are you kidding!
:-)
I changed the url and it's fine - thanks (although it does not show in
Konqueror).
