Hi,
Are you able to do changes to the download pages?
can you give me the exact URL that needs to be changed?
http://download.openoffice.org/ part of the new auto os detection.
The following OSes are currently available:
macosxintel
macosxppc
There never has been an os macwjre available through the bouncer
and I doubt there ever will be.
So, where is macwjre linked?
Looking at the source code it appears to be the getPlatform() function
in the javascript that needs to be updated. Hrm, looking further into
the code it appears that there has been a wrong assumption made, in
that every platform has a jre. It also hard codes in the fact that
there are no regional Englishes. It's time that there was some
regional language teams for the regional Englishes. The other page http://download.openoffice.org/other.html#en-US
still goes to the mac port page.

The function getPlatformForBouncer need the 3 if's changed to return
the following values:
} else if ( navigator.platform.indexOf( "Mac" ) != -1 &&
navigator.platform.indexOf( "Intel" ) != -1 ) {
return "macosxintel";
} else if ( navigator.platform.indexOf( "Mac" ) != -1 &&
navigator.platform.indexOf( "PPC" ) != -1 ) {
return "macosxppc";
} else if ( navigator.platform.indexOf( "Mac" ) != -1 ) {
return "macosxintel"; // This is the most common so
lets guess
} else
Unfortunately this code will require more work as it appears to assume
that platform has a jre!!!!! As per this function:
/*
* get flag for bouncer link
* depends on array-list
*/
function getLink( version ) {
var a = getArray();
if ( a[3] == 'y' ) {
// use OSUOSL-bouncer link
return "http://openoffice.bouncer.osuosl.org/?product=OpenOffice.org&os=
" + getPlatformForBouncer() + "wjre&lang=" + getLanguageISO() +
"&version=" + version;
} else {
// use direct link
return a[2];
}
}
