Re: Form widgets on fpo website

FP.org is not a Web 2.0centric website. The most important thing for it to do is present information about Fedora. If you really want to have things with the form change, contact the right mailing list and appeal your case to them.

You don't understand. Rectangular widgets, non-native are ugly and
they're making websites looking more out-of-the-box, what's wrong.

I see nothing wrong with styling it for those who have support for it.
It's a web accessability thing. Ability to style it and see a nice
looking form, or if your browser doesn't support it, then it still
gets form controls with the universal default which still allows it to
be useable. If your complaint is that the styled version is "90ish"
with a square appearance, then I will reconsider my arguements.

Exactly that widgets should not be styled.

Well, you can do the appealing to the people that be that dictate the
default appearance of any sort of basic form appearance for forms.
It's nothing that the art or the website team have anything to do
with. Until you can appeal to the people that set this, you can either
use a browser that supports styled forms, or put up with it.

On a personal note, I am not really all that bothered by whatever form
widgets are on  fedoraproject.org root url. Only one I see is the one
to switch the language, which is small enough and out of the way
enough to not worry about personally.

But it doesn't change the fact. Form styling (not the alignment, the
appearance css part) MUST be removed or changed to non-rectangular
(rectangles were nice in win9x epoch).
