ASF subversion and git services commented on COUCHDB-2471:
----------------------------------------------------------

Commit dca437a546130b1233f5c65b87f888effb373ee5 in couchdb-fauxton's branch 
refs/heads/master from [~robertkowalski]
[ https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=couchdb-fauxton.git;h=dca437a ]

Componentize footer

Take the elements that were all baked into all-docs-list
and inject them into the all-docs-list. This enables us to have
a separate footer component in the layout which can be initialized
without the all-docs-list viewobject.

This enables us to remove the `position: fixed` from the footer
and use `position: absolute`. Without having the element
`position: fixed;` we do not need to calculate it's width via JS
and can apply a css based pane layout.

> There are several issues with our current pane-layout and the header, their 
> width is controlled by resizeColumns.js:
>  - We are often getting horizontal scrollbars which are quite hard to fix 
> (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2234) - as soon as we fix them 
> the issues return almost immediately after fixing them: 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2320 
>  - Multipane Layouts and Header in Multipane Layouts are overlapping and this 
> leads to interesting bugs and workarounds. Examples are: 
>   1. Button not clickable (as it is overlapped by a not visible other header 
> element of the panes)
>   2. Buttons to far right or left
>   3. spending alot of time to position elements in the header which should 
> basically just float next to each other
>   4. not being able to use the regular container for the api-url button and 
> instatiation as we need a special solution for new kinds of layout
> Sean prototyped some time ago Fauxton in Angular for a project. I added the 
> code as it shows how a pure CSS solution can work with multi-pane layouts 
> which would solve all these problems which slow down development and would 
> also close the open issues. Additionally we would not have to kind of hotfix 
> so much code like we did in the past.
> Bonus points for adding responsiveness! (we have bootstrap 2.3 included in 
> Fauxton which has some helpers for responsive grid layouts)
