Ok, so I'm responding to my own message. But I've got a patch (against 0.38) for
show_users.html that gets us from 5 levels of embedded tables down to 3, as well as
minor html cleanups. The new html generates a page that looks identical to the
original in both Netscape 4.7 and Mozilla M18, no IE to test on. Performance is
definitely improved. It's not blazing quick, but I don't think we can get any more
speedup out of the html while maintaining the same layout.
Instructions for applying:
copy show_users.html.patch to qmailadmin-0.38/html
cd qmailadmin-0.38/html
patch < show_users.html.patch
cd ..
make install
Enjoy,
Hampton
