[09:33:25 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> fj4000: I notice that you are working on demos. I wrote up a small bug against the Progress demo (http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-3174) and submitted a patch. I thought that I'd bring it to your attention.
[09:33:41 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> fj4000: hi, by the way... it's been a while
[09:34:27 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> elicochran: thanks!
[09:34:35 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> np
[09:34:37 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> it has been a while, hasnt it?
[09:35:13 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> fj4000: it has... rest assured that I'm still watching the project closely... and using the framework daily
[09:35:27 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> thats really awesome (smile)
[09:35:37 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> have you played with any of the Engage stuff?
[09:36:17 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> fj4000: I wish that I could justify the time! I love the mobile space but my work is pretty much Sakai all the time right now.
[09:37:00 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> (tongue)
[09:37:02 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> The media work that you're doing is related to the work the Matterhorn team is doing and while I'm not on the project I "consult"
[09:37:28 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I really like the video scrubber that you folks built with the jQuery slider!
[09:37:51 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> and just the fact that it's a nice assessable sliders
[09:38:18 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> when I saw it in there, I thought that it was a clever use of it
[09:38:27 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> just fyi
[09:38:36 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> the patch seems to look for the old location
[09:38:54 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> your demo moved to webapp/demos/
[09:39:05 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> so i can just relocate this patch, if thats ok with you
[09:39:26 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> fj4000: ah yes, you changed paths just after I submitted the patch... please proceed
[09:39:32 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I'm cool!
[09:39:52 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> thanks!
[09:39:54 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Oh, also my patch was for "both" demos
[09:40:00 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> and now there is one, right
[09:40:01 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> ?
[09:40:01 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> yeah, i just noticed!
[09:40:05 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> yes
[09:40:08 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> just the one
[09:40:17 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> but thanks for covering them both!
[09:40:24 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> so just delete the part of the patch that doesn't apply
[09:40:45 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> for that matter the fix is so small, you could just apply by hand
[09:40:51 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Math.round()
[09:41:06 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> surrounding
[09:41:15 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> easy peasy
[09:41:35 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> the patch worked like a charm, no need (tongue)
[09:41:40 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> awesome
[09:42:14 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> fj4000: thanks, I didn't want the bug or patch languishing since it wasn't assigned to anyone
[09:43:25 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> elicochran: have you seen the new demo space?
[09:45:59 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> fj4000: the demo portal? A bit
[09:46:20 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I love the way the code is presented
[09:47:12 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> (smile)
[09:48:06 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> fj4000: I gotta run. Early here, and I need to get the kid up and make breakfast, etc. I'll see you online later.
[09:48:12 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> take care
[09:48:16 EDT(-0400)] <fj4000> thanks for the patch

[09:55:25 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> hello - I am trying out the Fluid Uploader, and I've run into a problem
[09:55:33 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> is this an appropriate channel for help?

[09:58:51 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> hi nickb1, this would be the place indeed
[09:58:58 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> great!
[09:59:02 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> I'm using 1.1.1
[09:59:28 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> (i can't be of much help, but ask away and someone will be able to (wink)
[09:59:57 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> and no matter what value I place in the flashButtonImageURL option on the fluid.swfUploadSetupDecorator, the javascript appears to only retrieve the absolute location /images/browse.png

[10:07:58 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> the button still opens up the file dialog box
[10:08:16 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> it just visually is a white box instead of the browse iamge

[10:12:12 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> I'm using the minified 1.1.1; I tried to download the full source version from http://fluidproject.org/products/fluid-infusion/download-infusion/ but it appears the link for infusion-1.1.1-src.zip is broken (404)

[10:14:53 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> nickb1: Should be an easy fix, I think.
[10:15:13 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I'm sorry the API is a bit confusing for the setup decorator.
[10:15:32 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> You just need to wrap its configuration in an array.
[10:15:39 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So:
[10:16:00 EDT(-0400)]

<colinclark> decorators: [{ type: "fluid.swfUploadSetupDecorator", options:

Unknown macro: {...}

]


[10:16:06 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I wonder if we've got a little bug in our documentation for that.
[10:17:01 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> ah
[10:17:24 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> that was it!
[10:17:44 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> We're simplify the whole configuration for Uploader soon. You should never have to worry about subtle details like where to put a few square brackets. (wink)
[10:17:53 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Sorry for the inconvenience, and I'm glad you've got it working.
[10:17:58 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> no problem
[10:18:15 EDT(-0400)] <nickb1> thanks for the quick help!

[10:19:40 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> nickb1: thanks for letting us know that the download is missing
[10:20:09 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> jamon just fixed it so you should be able to get at the src bundle now
[10:21:06 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> jamon: it looks like the custom builder is now on the website but it doesn't seem to have the correct js or something
[10:21:12 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> http://fluidproject.org/products/infusion/builder/
[10:21:19 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> perhaps it should still be hidden?
[10:21:25 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> was it meant to go live?
[10:21:44 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> michelled: interesting, laurel needed that removed, i'll check the custom part
[10:22:36 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> i'm not sure what laurel intended there
[10:23:18 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> perhaps we can just remove the link to the 'advanced build' until she's back
[10:23:25 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> on this page: http://fluidproject.org/products/infusion/download-infusion/
[10:23:40 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> I mean 'advanced download'
[10:23:46 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> that would be easiest, do you have a login to do that? I don't, would rather not hack on the database
[10:24:13 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> that makes sense. I don't think I do anymore - I think the old unused accounts were removed
[10:24:24 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> colinclark: do you have a login for the website?

[10:27:09 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> y'all have other more important things to work on
[10:27:10 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> jamon: thanks, dude!
[10:27:16 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> no, it's ok jamon: colinclark has just given me a password
[10:27:19 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I gave michelle the passwd if you need it
