| mdke | newz2000: not that I'm a conosewer of js, but I just like the thing | 12:18 |
|---|---|---|
| newz2000 | it was originally in flash and some people had a fit... the excuse was that we're starting to ship gnash, but then we realized the flash didn't work in gnash | 12:19 |
| newz2000 | so the agency exported it to png | 12:19 |
| popey | heh | 12:19 |
| popey | you had the whole "flash is evil" brigade eh? | 12:19 |
| === popey is a fully paid up member | ||
| popey | :) | 12:19 |
| popey | newz2000: found someone with a mac | 12:20 |
| newz2000 | well, I see the web stats, and 98+% of the people who come to the ubuntu websites have an up-to-date flash player. But I'm a pragmatist to. | 12:20 |
| === newz2000 crosses fingers and hopes it works | ||
| popey | 23:20:32 <+tom> fine | 12:21 |
| popey | sorry, that's as much detail as I got :S | 12:21 |
| newz2000 | that's enough for me. :-) | 12:21 |
| mdke | the story is live | 12:22 |
| newz2000 | if it was broke, we'd have gotten more detail I suspect | 12:22 |
| popey | 23:22:02 <+tom> popey: looks absolutely fine, Safari 99% of the time renders like Gecko anyway :) | 12:22 |
| mdke | or "frudge" | 12:22 |
| popey | ooo.. stunning detail | 12:22 |
| popey | thanks mdke | 12:22 |
| mdke | I think we should use the word frudge as the past tense for the verb to fridge | 12:22 |
| newz2000 | gracias matt! | 12:22 |
| newz2000 | it was frudged! | 12:22 |
| newz2000 | we could have some buttons people could put on their website... frudge it! | 12:23 |
| === mdke frudged it | ||
| popey | you've been drinking haven't you mdke ? | 12:23 |
| mdke | maybe | 12:23 |
| newz2000 | :-D | 12:23 |
| mdke | damn, that frudge thing was the result of several weeks thinking, now I have to pass it off as drunken inspiration | 12:25 |
| === mdke frudges off to bed | ||
| newz2000 | g'night | 12:26 |
| newz2000 | ok, well, tomorrow its my goal to fix IE and to add the new fridge features, but for now I'm calling it a day | 12:33 |
| newz2000 | er, no way on earth I can fix IE, I mean make the site look right in IE | 12:34 |
| popey | hmm | 12:38 |
| popey | there is something screwy with the code | 12:38 |
| popey | I have copy/pasted it but the text underneath doesn't link correctly | 12:38 |
| popey | newz2000: check fridge.ubuntu.com and hover over the add link | 12:39 |
| newz2000 | oops | 12:39 |
| popey | i can fudge it | 12:39 |
| newz2000 | no, I need to fix it elsewhere | 12:39 |
| popey | with an <a href=http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/countdown around the whole thing? | 12:39 |
| newz2000 | that's a biggy | 12:39 |
| newz2000 | good catch, and worth delaying supper. | 12:40 |
| popey | heh | 12:40 |
| newz2000 | fixed, but will take 30m to clear the cache unfortunately. :-( | 12:42 |
| popey | erk | 12:42 |
| popey | <a href="" style= hehehehe | 12:43 |
| === popey waits for 30 mins | ||
| popey | looks fixed, thanks newz2000 | 01:08 |
| Rinchen | thanks newz2000 for working on the fridge. been absolutely buried these last few days | 01:25 |
| popey | newz2000: an ubuntu-uk person made an improvement to the code... | 01:42 |
| popey | http://pastebin.ubuntu-uk.org/465 | 01:42 |
| popey | so that in the event that js isn't available (for example when syndicated on planet ubuntu) rather than getting a static image you get the same image the js people get | 01:43 |
| popey | should work in news feed readers too | 01:43 |
| popey | and so to bed | 01:44 |
| popey | nn | 01:44 |

| bluekuja | heya all | 12:12 |
| bluekuja | hi nixternal :) | 12:12 |
| bluekuja | newz2000: countdown looks pretty nice | 12:12 |
| === Rinchen [n=joey@canonical/launchpad/pdpc.supporter.professional.rinchen] has joined #ubuntu-fridge | ||
| newz2000 | So the fridge looks good in all our supported browsers except IE6, where the page is just plain blank below the picture of the fridge. :-( | 08:15 |
| newz2000 | "a little broken" is ok, but blank isn't. | 08:17 |
| === beuno curses ie | ||
| Rinchen | newz2000, funny | 08:43 |
| Rinchen | newz2000, we just fixed the same issue on LP | 08:43 |
| newz2000 | oh, how? Tell me please | 08:43 |
| Rinchen | newz2000, it was a css margin content statement that was busted on ie7 | 08:43 |
| newz2000 | Hm. Fridge works in IE7, not ie6. And I think I still validated, but will confirm. | 08:44 |
| bluekuja | newz2000: what do you think about http://www.ubuntu-it.org/ | 08:45 |
| bluekuja | newz2000: we made a really nice countdown there | 08:45 |
| bluekuja | hi Rinchen :) | 08:45 |
| Rinchen | newz2000, does it look like the screenshot in this bug? https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/141614 | 08:46 |
| newz2000 | bluekuja: slick! | 08:46 |
| bluekuja | newz2000: :) | 08:46 |
| newz2000 | Rinchen: yes, pretty much | 08:46 |
| newz2000 | bluekuja: the original concept the artists proposed for the countdown was in Flash and each small circle of the logo was a timer counting down. It was catchy, but if you looked at it at the wrong time of day the circles were just tiny slivers. | 08:47 |
| Rinchen | k, I can't find the fix...let me check my logs | 08:48 |
| bluekuja | newz2000: oh :D | 08:48 |
| newz2000 | my Win2k vm decided it *needed* to do a windows update, so my computer is crawling at the moment | 08:48 |
| bluekuja | newz2000: do you have any screenshoot of it? | 08:48 |
| newz2000 | sorry, I don't | 08:49 |
| bluekuja | ok then | 08:49 |
| bluekuja | newz2000: anyway Ubuntu's homepage one is cool too, it's simple and looks pretty nice | 08:50 |
| newz2000 | yeah, internally we were very divided about using Flash and there were some strong emotions. If it had worked with the Gnash plugin, we'd probably have used it. | 08:50 |
| Rinchen | newz2000: | 08:51 |
| Rinchen | > The fix is in main-template.pt, changing "#container {margin-top: | 08:51 |
| Rinchen | > 48px;}" to "#container {margin-top: 30px; position: static;}". | 08:51 |
| Rinchen | that's what we applied | 08:52 |
| bluekuja | going for a shower | 08:52 |
| bluekuja | bbl | 08:52 |
| newz2000 | position: static? I'll have to investigate | 08:52 |
| newz2000 | I've never used it before | 08:52 |
| newz2000 | thanks for the tip, that would rock if this fixed it | 08:52 |
| === popey tests fridge under ie6 | ||
| popey | up, lots of blank :S | 09:00 |
| popey | yeah, looks good in ie7 | 09:01 |
| newz2000 | popey: how do you test with both? | 09:02 |
| popey | i have two vms | 09:18 |
| popey | if you need any help/assistance with it, just shout | 09:19 |
| popey | (I cant code but I can test) | 09:19 |
| newz2000 | :-) I've got two vms too. I wish there was a way to get two IE's working in the same one | 09:20 |
| newz2000 | and for some reason, IE6 in wine doesn't seem to render exactly the same as IE6 in windows | 09:21 |
| bluekuja | Rinchen: any news regarding Support/Products/Community broken links? | 09:28 |
| Rinchen | um, not sure I knew that it was broken. newz2000 ^^ | 09:30 |
| newz2000 | what's this? | 09:30 |
| bluekuja | check every link on the top | 09:30 |
| bluekuja | like http://fridge.ubuntu.com/support | 09:30 |
| bluekuja | and so on | 09:31 |
| newz2000 | ugh, good catch | 09:31 |
| Rinchen | newz2000, come to think of it, you might want to check the fridge bug list. That might be on there. They are all assigned to you anyway :-) | 09:33 |
| bluekuja | :D | 09:34 |
| newz2000 | will do | 09:34 |
