What I came up with is to kick the Maximize altogether. The reason for this is two-fold.
One - there's no precident for maximize out there "in-the-wild". i.e. There's no web sites to my recollection that I've visited over the past five years that have maximize button. SO - this could be considered a "web-app" feature only in which case you don't necessarily want or need a non-table layout. Two - There's no way to do Maximize without resorting to Javascript. SO - Given that you've played around with this, I'm willing to take another look. Maximize could be very useful in-the-wild - one use case comes to mind - you have a portlet that serves up photo thumbnails, you max the portlet and then you get the full size photo. The tricky part for the Javascript idea is that it should degrade gracefully when Javascript is not enabled - in which case this will take a bit of work. (In general, the only reason for going through all this hassle is to produce web pages that adhere to best practices and a sort of an intellectualized concept of web design - there's alot of good reasons for not bothering. In my case, I don't have paying customers waiting for me so I can afford to take the time to do it well(?). http://www.polyphonicstudios.net/jbpLayouts/slh3Columns.css http://www.polyphonicstudios.net/jbpLayouts/slhThreeColumns.jsp.txt View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3887051#3887051 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3887051 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ JBoss-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user
