[14:34] <Volans> newz2000: Hi, take a look at bug 270876 . Should we do anything about it? (how much is important IE6 rendering?)
[14:34] <ubot3> Malone bug 270876 in ubuntu-website "page borders not rendered correctly on IE6" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/270876
[14:34] <newz2000> Hi Volans. This bug doesn't bother me but the related bug reported about a week ago does.
[14:34] <newz2000> blank screen in IE
[14:35] <newz2000> so I plan to fix them both before intrepid releases by converting the ubuntu08 theme to a drupal theme
[14:35] <Volans> oh, maybe I have missed the first bug
[14:35] <newz2000> I don't know if it was reported as a bug, it was mentioned in here
[14:35] <Volans> ok, in any case, good news to make a drupal theme
[15:36] <qense> hello
[15:47] <newz2000> hola!
[22:12] <Volans> newz2000: I have made some tests for the help link
[22:12] <newz2000> Volans: oh?
[22:12] <Volans> firefox have already a gnome-help handler
[22:13] <Volans> a link like <a href="ghelp:internet">test</a> will open the Internet page in the help menu
[22:13] <Volans> I don' have tested *ubuntu yet, so I don't know if this solution can work also there
[22:14]  * newz2000 tries
[22:14] <newz2000> it works, though that's not the ideal page
[22:14] <newz2000> that's a table of contents, better would be the "Connect to the Internet" page I think
[22:15] <Volans> use ghelp:internet#connect instead
[22:16] <newz2000> that worked
[22:16] <newz2000> it pops up a box, "what program do you want to use to open this?" and lists only gnome help
[22:17] <Volans> yes, I don't know if is possible from the package to avoid the popup
[22:17] <Volans> and open directly the help
[22:18] <Volans> by the way I see another problem... the offline pages in firefox are many
[22:18] <Volans> so I think can be difficult to cover all teh possible cases
[22:18] <newz2000> yes, true
[22:19] <newz2000> but that's not our job, our job is to communicate clearly to the user that they are not online
[22:19] <newz2000> help them if we can, but at least communicate clearly
[22:27] <Erik_J> newz2000, why doesn't ubuntu.com support IE6 good?
[22:28] <Erik_J> the layout is ugly and the menu is not working
[22:37] <newz2000> Erik_J: it was deemed, "not too bad" when we reviewed it, but recent information has shown that it is actually bad.
[22:37] <newz2000> Therefore it's my plan to migrate ubuntu.com to the same template shipit uses this month
[22:38] <Erik_J> ubuntu.com is using django isn't it?
[22:38] <newz2000> no, it uses drupal, though webapps.ubuntu.com uses django
[22:39] <Erik_J> :/, I always confuse them
[22:39] <newz2000> the original intention was for the webapps domain to be hidden and proxied through the ubuntu.com domain but it's gotten stalled
[22:40] <Erik_J> but you have to make a new django template based on the shipit template
[22:40] <Erik_J> ?
[22:41] <newz2000> well, I'll have to make a template for drupal and django
[22:41] <newz2000> it won't look drastically different than what we have now
[22:41] <newz2000> it's the same template matthew east used for the help.ubuntu.com wiki
[22:41] <Erik_J> but better in IE6
[22:41] <newz2000> yes
[22:42] <Erik_J> help.ubuntu.com is still using the old layout
[22:42] <newz2000> yes but the community section is a wiki and matt has created a new theme for it
[22:43] <Volans> sorry newz2000 I have to go now... see you later or tomorrow
[22:43] <newz2000> ok
[22:43] <newz2000> ttyl Volans
[22:45] <Erik_J> today I did one simple test on ubuntu.com. Again I was suprised. The user thought that the "Download" and "Upgrade" in the header was one button.
[22:45] <Erik_J> Meaning: download ubuntu upgrade
[22:45] <newz2000> it's always interesting what people get stuck on
[22:46] <Erik_J> he used the Get ubuntu link in the left menu
[22:46] <Erik_J> a simple - before the words solves it I think
[22:46] <newz2000> so that's why we put it there. :-)
[22:50] <Erik_J> time for bed, almost midnight here. Have a nice day
[22:50] <newz2000> have a nice night Erik_J
