With difficulties. I use a simple shell script to generate the decoration pictures from a window screenshot or another picture. To see how it works look at: http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~uwp/fvwm_web_site/index.php?layout=window&border=1 The script cuts 9 pieces out of a pictures which can be remerged in a html-table to make the original picture scalable. +---------------+ +--+--+--+ | | => +--+--+--+ | | +--+--+--+ +---------------+ +--+--+--+ So I have to remove the bottom and right border by hand. > > I thought making the web like a screenshot.

In my opinion a web site must be designed to provide access to the information one needs as easy as possible. So the first requirement is easy and obvious navigation the second would be a fancy layout to bind the surfer ;-) I will do some examples. Due the php-concept it is quite easy to add and remove parts of a web page. Once you have set them up you can insert them in a page and remove them from it within seconds ;-) > > http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~uwp/fvwm_web_site/index.php?layout=16buttons > > Yes, that's too confusing.

Yes. Good idea. I could do an example hopefully by the end of this week. > And one suggestion about the site layout: Screen shots and > configs should be in the same place so you can say "I want the > config for this shot". Yes, that's what I have in mind too. I was also thinking about modular configs which can be included by Read in .fvwm2rc. One could provide config-parts for window decorations, menu styles, module configs and so on. I have set this up at my home computer but not that consequently. It makes changing parts of the fvwm-config quite easy and portable. > No need to check all browsers. I just wanted to mention that the > pages must allow it (not like Shockwave flash menus, etc.). I have to check the pages which different browsers anyway. Every browser displays pages slightly differently. Most of them do not support the whole w3c standard :-( -- Uwe Pross mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~uwp -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
