Dear Fossil Gurus, The HTML used in the web interface of Fossil is... well... let's just say, "not optimal". Although the web interface is sufficiently functional, it could do with an upgrade - ie, use proper html5 elements, make use of a responsive layout, etc.
I have played with editing the 'header', 'footer' and 'css' of the 'skin', but that is not enough. The html of the main 'content' section of every page is hard-coded into the Fossil core. This seems to mean, that it is not possible to easily change the html of individual pages - not without changing the application's code, and recompiling it... I saw that there were (at least) a couple of feature request tickets, that ask about separating the html from the main code base - to make customisation easier. These tickets, however, seem to be quite old. Does anyone know whether there are any plans to do that? If not, I might spend some time trying to *really* customise the interface by using some brute-force javascript to totally re-write the html elements currently produced by the standard fossil output for its various pages. This, however, is not an easy or elegant solution - and would definitely be redundant, if the html is going to be separated from the core code any time in the near future (and I won't want to spend any time on a javascript solution)... Does anyone know if there are any plans on separating the html from the code? Many thanks in advance for any info, -- Igor Couto Sydney, Australia
