If you're as lazy as I am, you know that it's worth 5 minutes of programming effort to save 1/2 second of user action repeated multiple times.
I got tired of having to manually focus on the password input box in my lists' administrative authentication pages. It was costing me one mouse click or two hits of the Tab key. So I decided to make the input box self-focusing. If you're even lazier than I am, you don't even have to figure this out for yourself. Just apply the following 1-line patch in ~mailman/templates to patch admlogin.txt. It works in all the browsers I have access to. This is for Mailman 2.0.x. I haven't tried 2.1 yet. - Bob --- admlogin.txt.ORIG Tue Jul 30 10:38:31 2002 +++ admlogin.txt Tue Jul 30 11:24:48 2002 @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ <head> <title>%(listname)s Administrative Authentication</title> </head> -<body bgcolor="#ffffff"> +<body bgcolor="#ffffff" onLoad="document.forms[0][0].focus()"> <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="%(path)s"> %(message)s <TABLE WIDTH="100%%" BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="4" CELLPADDING="5"> ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
