             Summary: Widget & Application HTML clean-up
                 Key: OFBIZ-5040
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5040
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ALL APPLICATIONS
            Reporter: Paul Piper


I am sure that this is a common thing to know: the current backoffice 
application relies heavily on widgets. This is good, but the current 
standard-html-structure is not flexible enough and often lacks proper w3c 
implementation. 

To make matters worse, you can often find applications avoiding widgets at all 
and rather overriding the standards with custom ftl implementations. It is 
these customizations that break the html on numerous screens and make it 
difficult, if not tedious to create new themes for the backoffice. 

This task is hence to:
* Find a consensus on a new widget standard
* Go over each of the application ftls and convert these to the new standard 
* Recreate the themes and simplify/clean-up special rules

Since redoing the theme is a rather large task, we should consider to add an 
additional css for now which stylises the replacement html instead of working 
with the old.
