Notes on the blue-and-orange web design:
About a month ago, I updated the FreeDOS web site to use the blue-and-orange bar design. At the same time, a bunch of links got moved to the orange bar at the top of the page. Here's some history behind that: We have a bunch of apps hosted for us by SourceForge (bug tracker, subversion, wiki, ...) This is great, because it means SF does all the updates for us. The down-side is that we can't modify their orange-and-grey web design. The links in the orange bar all point to a hosted app, provided by SourceForge. (The only exception is "Home".) So when you click on a link in the orange nav bar, you aren't too confused when you next see a page with an orange-and-grey design. Most of the links in the left-hand navigation bar are now internal links, pages which use the standard FreeDOS web design. Eric keeps asking if I can put a copy of these links in the left-hand navigation bar on the FreeDOS web site. I haven't done that because I felt it was important to keep them in the top orange bar, so users weren't confused by navigating to a SF-hosted app. It was always confusing to me to have the navigation links be mixed internal, external, and SF-hosted. (In fact, I've been thinking about adding "»" next to all the external links, just to make it clear ... but haven't really had the spare time to do this.) -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
