Thanks! - good to have a checklist that can be handled point by point without having to read the thread again. > Related link: http://website.openoffice.org/tryouts/cloph/options.html > > __TODO SHORTTERM______ > (would be nice to solve this before page is uploaded) > - Remove mentioning WindowsJRE, and add an estimated additional filesize > for the JRE bundled versions (Maarten proposed this and would favour > this, Christian does not mind, does anyone else have objections?)

Yes. because I think these options actually /are/ important.

I guess that was the reason why I changed it in the first place.... Apart from that it "steals" the onclick events for the other elements, rendering the design unusable. As a mid-term solution I incorporated the two paragraphs into the clickable-area (so not the whole box, but all the text that is visible initially. > - Add somewhere a version of the JRE.

The server-URL is stored in a hidden (not displayed) form-element... Modifying the link targed probably would involve some ugly document.write stuff and is not necessary IMHO.... ciao Chritstian -- NP: Silverchair - Spawn Again --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
