So, I need to do more testing, but I've fixed the SideNav issues I was having. They presently collapse globally, and then expand, showing and highlighting the currently active page (based on location.href).
I'm open to hearing constructive criticism from the crew. http://xmlgraphics.staging.apache.org/ Brief list of Issues: - the page design is missing something (perhaps remove the logo from the top-left of page and leave it in the top of the sidenav?) - get more graphics involved in the design (page graphics? batik graphics? etc.) - have a solution for non-HTML stuff (Batik demo, javadoc, etc.) - fix styling of Compliance.html (perhaps using jQuery to style items in table w innerHTML = 'yes'?) - improve page title rendering Once we are ready to actually deploy, there are other issues: - sync page updates (status, faqs, etc.) - determine Ideal location from which to deploy (perhaps where it is in xmlgraphics/site/trunk) NOTE: I don't think we need to spend *hours* on the Compliance table issue--I think I can handle it via jQuery.
