[08:22:08 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> hey justin_o , i think an old bug hack (that we may no longer need? FLUID-726 ) is causing the current focus issue (FLUID-3861)
[08:22:17 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> for inline edit
[08:24:28 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: oh interesting
[08:26:52 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> justin_o i think we still need the settimeout fix maybe, but removing "that.editField.focus();" seems fine, and fixes our bug
[08:28:05 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> ill test it on other browsers, then make a quick patch
[08:28:08 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> really.. that's interesting... so removing the hack doesn't affect the functionality at all
[08:28:16 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> oh it's snowing here now
[08:28:28 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> here too! and getting "flash freeze" warnings
[08:28:46 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> justin_o i think there was more to the fix than that focus line. there's a settimeout that still seems needed
[08:29:06 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> hmm.. interesting..
[08:29:46 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> what does that do?
[08:31:16 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: i just have to run out to the main ocad building for a few minutes.. i'll be back in a bit
[08:31:27 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> np
[08:56:54 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: okay.. i'm back
[08:56:55 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> sorry about that
[08:57:21 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> justin_o no probs, i tested it out and it seems to be good so ill submit a patch, that just gets rid of that focus line
[08:57:46 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: thanks..
[08:57:56 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> was this part of the inline-block issue?
[08:58:05 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> nope different
[08:58:13 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> this is FLUID-3861
[08:58:37 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> going to work on james's suggestions now, which will involve that inline block stuff
[08:59:06 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> which i'm hoping will fix the IE bugs as well
[09:02:33 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: oh that one..okay... great thanks...
[09:07:43 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> justin_o ie is so weird... so if i refresh, then edit a field, then refresh again. i get the fresh data, but when i hit enter on a field, the text switches to my old entries.
[09:08:31 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> not sure if that's some weird cache thing, but then it would make more sense for the old data to still be there on refresh, not hidden behind seemingly fresh data
[09:08:42 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> not sure if that made sense
[09:09:28 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> is there a jira for this already do you know?
[09:40:05 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: is that in IE 8?
[09:40:11 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> yep
[09:40:56 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> IE7 too
[09:49:57 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> justin_o should i file a jira for that^
[09:51:05 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: sorry... i think jhung recently filed one for that
[09:51:34 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> ah okay, cool.
[09:51:40 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: i'll try to find it
[09:51:44 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> i think it's on bug parade
[09:51:44 CST(-0600)] <jhung> heidi_: yep. I put in a jira for that
[09:52:08 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> ok good
[09:52:47 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> hmm.. maybe we dropped that one from bug parade
[09:58:15 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> yeah i cna't think right off how to fix it
[09:59:15 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: i'm guessing it is a caching issue in the browser.. i think anastasiac had made a suggestion about having the inlineEdit verify the values of the model or something like that
[09:59:34 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> yeah you'd have to check if it was already set somehow
[10:08:23 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> hey justin_o is there a jira for what you mentioned in your email to the list: "we could start pulling out the markup snippets and placing them into a markup block in the defaults"
[10:11:26 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: i don't think so yet, because we haven't decided yet what to do exactly...
[10:11:34 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> you may want to start by commenting on th e-mail
[10:12:20 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> justin_o yeah jus wondering if the fact that mark up is scattered throughout was a jira
[10:12:35 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: ah... i see.. not yet no
[10:22:25 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> harriswong1: http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-3089
[10:22:33 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> that's the issue that i think may be related to the one you are filing
[10:53:04 CST(-0600)] <harriswong1> justin_o: thanks. I filed that layourReorderer problem in http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-3864
[11:47:46 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> justin_o what's that.viewEl for ?
[11:47:51 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> in inline edit
[11:48:09 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> it is the display text
[11:48:14 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> heidi_: ^
[11:48:36 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> what does EI stand for? curios
[11:48:39 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> curious
[11:49:05 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> in this context i'm not entirely sure, but I would guess element
[11:49:13 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> although it is a jquery of the elment
[11:59:12 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> mlam: I found a few spare minutes to do some Uploader tweaks...
[11:59:25 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> getting us to the point where the demo upload will work properly, soon
[11:59:36 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> I'm just about to commit, but I hope it won't affect any changes you've made
[11:59:44 CST(-0600)] <mlam> Ok, I just got back from lunch.
[11:59:47 CST(-0600)] <mlam> Ok, sounds good
[11:59:52 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> I've refactored most of the Flash-specific code, splitting it out into Flash 9 and Flash 10 versions of everything
[12:00:00 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> And then I moved all the Flash 9 code into a separate file
[12:00:11 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> With Flash 9 fading out, users may well choose not to deliver support for Flash 9 at all
[12:00:20 CST(-0600)] <mlam> cool
[12:00:24 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> And so this way, download sizes are reduced
[12:00:46 CST(-0600)] <mlam> makes sense to me
[12:24:22 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> heidi_, is the dev version of the handbook ("dev.handbook.floeproject.org") being actively used? If I want to play a bit to learn more about mediawiki, could I do it there?
[12:25:12 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> you can play there anastasiac! it is the dev site for handbook but not working on it now
[12:25:32 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> ok, thanks heidi_ - I'll be sure to clean up after myself
[12:25:42 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> np - do you have login info?
[12:26:24 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> ping me if not i can set you up
[12:50:54 CST(-0600)] <mlam> hey jhung, i'm free from the uploader for a bit
[12:51:04 CST(-0600)] <mlam> i can pick up where you left off from the inline edit jira
[12:51:16 CST(-0600)] <jhung> which jira?
[12:52:00 CST(-0600)] <mlam> michelle mentioned that you posted a patch to a jira, but some component work needed to be done to finish it off
[12:52:20 CST(-0600)] <jhung> mlam: Ah yes. Let me find the Jira.
[12:52:51 CST(-0600)] <mlam> ok, cool thanks
[12:53:01 CST(-0600)] <jhung> http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-3855
[12:53:28 CST(-0600)] <jhung> Let me update the Jira to explain the task a bit better.
[12:54:19 CST(-0600)] <mlam> ok, thanks
[13:00:44 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> heidi_, on the dev.handbook site, the file "main.css" - is that the file you use to style the site, or is that styles that just come with mediawiki?
[13:01:13 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> anastasiac_ i think that's the one i use. i basically made a copy of the default skin and edited it to make ours
[13:15:30 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> heidi_, thanks. I'm looking into using mediawiki for our technical documentation, and I'm trying to find out how much we can have control over
[13:16:13 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> anastasiac yeah i'm still learning too, but anything in particular?
[13:16:27 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> nope, not yet - just starting (smile)
[13:16:41 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> heidi_, did you try anything with templates?
[13:16:58 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> other than skinning?
[13:17:19 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> yes, other than skinning - content
[13:17:30 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> more specifically, layout, I think
[13:19:31 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> yes if you look at floe.php or whatever i called the skin... i did some layout there. it was sort of complicated if i remember correctly
[13:19:46 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> basically the skin is set up like an object and you inhert/override parts of it to make your own
[13:19:59 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> something like that
[13:20:07 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> but not using the "Template:Foo" namespace?
[13:20:24 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> ah. no i didn't use that
[13:49:54 CST(-0600)] <mlam> jhung: what do you think about removing the italic font styling from the defaultViewStyle?
[13:51:33 CST(-0600)] <jhung> mlam: Not really ideal. Still no luck with the italic, eh? What if you placed a !important on the font-style: italic?
[13:52:32 CST(-0600)] <mlam> i'll give it a shot
[13:52:57 CST(-0600)] <mlam> that did it
[14:00:37 CST(-0600)] <jhung> mlam: cool. In that case attach a new patch to the Jira and someone will review it. Did you end up getting michelled's changes from yesterday?
[14:01:15 CST(-0600)] <jhung> brb
[14:13:02 CST(-0600)] <mlam> heidi_: you have a bit of time to discuss some inline edit CSS?
[14:13:21 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> mlam yeah for sure. i'm kinda stuck on it
[14:13:35 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> skype?
[14:13:43 CST(-0600)] <mlam> ok, sounds good
[14:30:58 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> heidi_, do you have permission (and a willingness) to make me an administrator on the dev.handbook site? (I promise, I'll try not to mess anything up) I'm just trying to import a simple template that doesn't seem to exist (though I'd expect it to)
[15:12:16 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> anastasiac sorry was on call
[15:12:25 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> np!
[15:12:27 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> ill do that!
[15:12:32 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> admin you, sec
[15:13:59 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> um i have to figure out how to do this..
[15:16:26 CST(-0600)] <heidi_> anastasiac - that work?
[15:16:48 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> heidi_, thanks - I'll give it a try in just a sec
