Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
At the time the header is generated, the code doesn't know how many posts are unread. In fact, the page never knows--the thread titles (with unread counts) are returned to it as text from another function.
So there'd be more tweaking than might first seem required.
Yeah, I was afraid of that.
Architecturally, there's more integrity in assembling the HTML in just one place--it's kinda cheating to put it together in three, like it currently works.
A streamlining job, while nowhere near imminent, is probably a good idea.
Weren't we able to put <table>s inside posts at some point?
We still are, AFAIK.
Let's see...
Temp Yesterday:60° Temp Today:30°
eta:Yup.
This probably has something to do with the tables, but in Safari, Tom Scola's post Tom Scola "Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach" Jan 15, 2006 4:30:11 am PST
appears above later posts and above the "Read New Message Center First [etc] links. It is also left justified. eta: I took a screen shot of it I could send someone, if this isn't clear.
eta: unless you are viewing it by itself with no other posts on the page. If you do that, it is normal.
I deleted my post because I thought that my table was screwing up the page. It looks like someone else's post is the problem.
It is someone else's post, Tom, since that still happens, even after deletion.
It's tommyrot's. I've tried cleaning it up, but I'm still missing something.
Ah, fuck. Should I delete it? Dunno if it's worth the trouble to fix....
