Please don't change my font on me! As I've already written some mails before, the design is nor significant, nor final, nor useful, I just don't like plain HTML when I work on something. Sorry for the CSS but it's readable in Opera + Mozilla under Linux and MSIE5.5 + Netscape 6 under Windows and doesn't use any "funky stuff". The CSS is also just temporary and "funky stuff" is yet to come from interface designers! :-) > Also, what's with this? > http://www.technoid.f2s.com/gimp.org/index.php?nav=doc > A query in the URL for a static document?? [skipped some stuff] I think you stick to much to the "ugly URL" thing. I've used just one file for the whole "engine" (if you can call it like that so far) because I can edit one file to change the whole look. This isn't that important, only a small detail which can change and isn't worth discussing! Also, you can make /download/ point to /gimp.org/1337/engine/version02/download/index.php?nav=stable&version=10 without letting the user see that. Anyway, I cannot do that with my web hoster. > I have purposely _not_ applied any significant design to the stuff > I've been working on - I'm expecting someone to come up with a better > one, eventually.

Just one template file and a rudimentary design yearning for changes. :-) > Actually, in my system, all of my URLs are _already_ nice and > clean, with full functionality. :) You are my personal hero, man! Sorry, couldn't resist. ;-) > Compare: > http://www.technoid.f2s.com/gimp.org/index.php?nav=doc&page=tutorials > http://wilber.gimp.org:8192/docs/user/tutorials/ Do you know f2s? It is an ISP who also provides free web space to poor people like me. ;-) I haven't got nor shells, nor CVS nor something-i-forgot-to-mention, you've got almost root on gimp.org. I think any comparison is futile... Also, we are wasting time on discussing stuff like this without coming any further. Maybe your engine is really "phat" but unfortunately I can't recognize significant changes compared to the current one. Anyway, tomorrow I'll possibly get access to MySQL on f2s so you can test my news code. -- --=[ t0mcat@xxxxxx ]=-- --=[ http://www.technoid.f2s.com ]=--
