Try www/project_tools.html This is what is used for the porting project to modify it there.
This file is not in our repository. How do I get a copy of it? I had a look at fr.openoffice.org/project_tools, but if I grab the source of that page, I get more than I think you want in just that file.
If we're missing that file, we may be missing others. How do I see a list of the default files our /www should contain?

I thought that might be the case, but it's always worth asking. ;)It would certainly be easier for our users if it could be translated, though.

I notice already that table borders don't show. Try taking a look at http://www.openoffice.org/styles/ Which gives you some information on what CSS you get already on every page. Hope this helps.
It certainly does. Thankyou very much. :) Christian then said:
you create it... seehttp://api.openoffice.org/source/browse/api/www/project_tools.html? rev=1.24&view=markupfor an example and the structure of it. Basically you have nested divs. (the old way of doing it) You can as well use the definition-list way (<dl><dt>title/heading</dt><dd><ul><li>links</li></ul></dd></dl>)
which answered my questions above about the missing files. :) About the horizontal navbar, he said:
There is no way. You have to hide the default using css and use your owninstead. However, you should try to not block access to the main openoffice.org webpages.
Pity we can't translate it, but I don't want to inhibit communication between our site and the main OOo.
About CSS, he said:
Well, just don't use classnames/identifiers that are already taken in the inst.css or tigris.css files that are included in every pages.
Those files aren't in our repo, either, but I can find them now I have the default root address.
If you do use the same identifiers, then be aware that you override defaults. CSS is meant to use defaults and override these defaults for certain elements, so I don't really got your concerns...
I'm just concerned that I might do what you say, override default settings. So I wanted to see the general CSS, so I can avoid that.
Thankyou for your help. :)from Clytie (vi-VN, Vietnamese free-software translation team / nhóm Việt hóa phần mềm tự do)
