[Test Build] MODx 0.9.2 preliminary test versions

Adam... great job on the QE my man! Works great in Safari. We might need to change the popup window behavior a bit to accommodate Tiny’s toolbar size. It’d be really cool to do a Lightbox style edit pane actually.

Likewise Jeff, TinyMCE is even working (almost) even in Safari... but I didn’t really expect it to work there.

Way to go team!

Actually if Tiny’s going to be the standard I really need to work on getting the AJAX apply feature to work too. I’ve never used Tiny much so I guess I need to spend some time getting to know it. I’ll adjust the window sizes when I do.

I’ve thought about this. I definitely don’t want to go with Ligtbox. I want someting draggable so you can get it out of the way and I don’t like shading the page that you’re trying to edit, it ruins your view and prevents you from being able to select and copy. I might end up going with a draggable iFrame kindof like this (http://blogus.xilinus.com/pages/javawin). Personally I like having a pop-up window so that I can drag the editor onto another screen and see the whole page without anything in the way but I understand that it doesn’t have the wow factor of an in page editor. An in-page editor with a blind feature might be a good compromize, or maybe an in-page window with an optional pop-out button kind of like gmail IM windows.

The other problem with an in-page window is that applying your changes has to reload the page and then you have to reload your editor with takes time and kills your undos. I can’t really think of any way around that one. You might be able to do some sort of an ajax reload thing but I could see a lot of potential problems with that.

forget wow factor, use what provides the most functionality! A separate window, so you can copy/paste and have undo/redo sounds good to me! Who wants all foam and no beer?

FYI, I just tried to do an SVN update but got this message :



I’ll try again later, guess cvsdude server is unavailable at the moment...

OK forget it it’s available again, just a glitch !
Of to testing now

I definetely agree with that Adam. For now I can’t think of a workaround to this problem that you mentioned, but it’s something that need to be considered before releasing 1.0

Manager Themes update for SlimStats.
SlimStats navigation styled like resource tabs in both default themes
