simplify default layout+discussion

Looks fine in Chrome and IE7. (Now i have easy access to IE7, but not IE6. Another housemate probably has IE8; will check...

 

The old layout has problems in IE7:

 

 

Hrm, couldn't upload image in Chrome (Application error) or IE7 (The website cannot display the page). Attaching to email...


Probly not a layout issue, but not getting a dropdownmenu from the search bar in IE7, on wagn.org, or TEST. New ticket?

yeah, sounds like a ticket, as does the upload error, especially if it's new.

 

Yesterday we updated the default layout and took out the HTML%-specific tags.

 

here's the built-in default layout as of 1.3. We should discuss whether we want this in english.

(This is the same in English as of 1.3 --JCA)

note, btw, that layout inclusions other than main will default to naked, whereas main itself still defaults to open and normal inclusions (inside main) still default to content, as always.

btw, I don't know of any more work to do on #2 of the todos above. I spent a decent chunk of time working on that. Feels very probable that we're going to have followup work after deploying, though.

to get a sense of how much cleaning we've done, compare the above to the currently layout example on http://www.wagn.org/Custom_Layouts

Chrome is rendering everything on wagn.org in one full-width column. The odd thing is that it's fine in Safari, and in fact Wagns other than wagn.org look normal in Chrome (even dwagn.org). So it's probably something we added to *layout or *css since the last dwagn dump (hehe, our dwagn takes dumps).

 

I'll have access to IE 7 and/or 8 when i get to many folks' house and will test what i can there.

Bizarre. Now it looks fine in Chrome. Maybe old CSS? A but nervous, but closing.

does sound like a css caching thing.
