I vote against dropping IE6 support.

My rationale is a sad one: many enterprise clients in the Netherlands 
(think governments, education institutes, healthcare, and the like) 
typically have a locked-down and out-of-date workstation. Though they 
aren't likely to run Radiant for their main web presence, many smaller 
internal groups can benefit from Radiant.

Only recently did one of my government clients upgrade from Windows 2000 
and IE6 to Windows Vista and IE7. Many more will follow suit, but for 
now I would suggest keeping IE6 support around for one more major 
release.

Keeping it around for one more major release also provides room for 
giving a deprecation announcement so developers can phase it out. And 
who knows, somebody might actually pick up maintainership if he feels a 
pressing need...

Can Ray install extensions as Git submodules? I always use Git

 When you get that 'x.rb was expected to define X' error, it usually means
 one of three things:

 * There's a syntax error in the file
 * One of the dependent libraries that the file requires is missing
 * The original file is missing (least likely)

 My guess is that you have an incomplete version of the sources.  It looks
 like you are trying to install Radiant in application mode.  While this is
 ok, it's recommended that you install it in project mode -- this is where
 you install the Radiant gem, run the `radiant` command from the terminal,
 and then either use the gem for the Radiant source (i.e. do nothing extra),
 or use `rake radiant:freeze:edge` and put the source in vendor/radiant.

Re: [Radiant] Re: Radiant Browser Support -- Drop IE6?

2008-07-21 Thread Josh Schairbaum
Before there is more discussion on this, would it be possible for us  
to get a list of problems that have arisen due to support for IE6?  I  
don't really have a frame of reference for how much work it is to  
maintain support. I personally think the best course of action would  
be to extract any IE6-specific support in an extension that way those  
that need it can have it with future versions of Radiant and help  
maintain it themselves.

Josh

For now I think it is appropriate to drop support for IE6. We can  
certainly accept a patch back to add it in latter, but I think it is  
more important to get the new interface implemented than to quibble  
over the details.

The Help extension does this for you when you install it. Even

http://github.com/saturnflyer/radiant-help-extension/tree/master

It does not, however, provide examples beyond what comes with the

I just added 
http://github.com/saturnflyer/radiant-help_use_cases-extension/tree/master

So your extra documentation could be added in as an option (although  
this still isn't as non-technical as editing a wiki)


It has almost nothing in it, but I added the ability to extend the  
docs for the installed tags in Help http://github.com/saturnflyer/radiant-help-extension/commit/d9a4634724465ca115bd0f246b4665917efbe724

(thanks Sean)

This will allow extension developers to add help use cases to their  
tags outside of the description in the model.


My priority is to flesh out the features and documentation of Help,  
but I'll be adding more info to Help Use Cases as time goes on. If you  
are interested in writing docs for each tag, I'll gladly grab it and  
put it into Help Use Cases.

[Radiant] restful_authentication or other front end authentication

2008-07-21 Thread Beau O'Hara

Hi,
I've been searching through the archives to see if this had been done,  
but I haven't found much.  Radiant is a good fit for a project am  
working on, and the extension system looks for my content needs that  
are non-standard.


2 questions:

My first question is regarding front end authentication.  There is  
some content that I need to display based on logged_in? and group.   
Has anyone done something like this before.  On standard rails apps I  
have been using restful_authentication but I am getting errors when  
installing the plugin.  I have tried using it without migrations -  as  
a user and sessions table already exist.


Second this functionality will obviously require a non-cached mode.  I  
read about a config option to run in this mode, I am wondering how  
well this is working in production.


Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

Re: [Radiant] Radiant Browser Support -- Drop IE6?

2008-07-21 Thread Chris Parrish
Hello all.  Thanks for the input.  As John mentioned, I am beginning 
work on the new Radiant UI, and my main goals are:


  1. It needs to function correctly
  2. I want the CSS/Markup to be as simple (understandable) as possible
 as this is open source
  3. I want to produce something that won't inadvertently break
 (maintainer removes one line to change something only to learn
 that that line was necessary as a browser hack)

Browser limitations/variations work against all of these (I'm currently 
fighting with Firefox).  I'm trying to find a happy (read: 
sane)-medium and I wanted people's take on things.


The consensus seems to be:

   * Most could live without IE6 (no current users requiring it)
   * Many/some could foresee a case where IE6 might be needed

So, I agree with John  Jim that we should shoot for IE 7+ support with 
the ability to add in IE 6 as an extension.  Besides, I'm working on 
some of the harder parts now and it's looking like PNG support may be 
the only limitation (I had other ones in mind when I asked this question 
but I think those may be working themselves out).



Jim Gay wrote:
Chris, I'm trying to clear up my schedule to get more involved in the

It didn't make sense to fork John's Radiant Prototype as that is really 
a complete prototype of the existing UI.  I have made a copy of it and 
will be hosting it on GitHub here shortly (I'm trying to get the 
_layout.haml file working so that the nav will be nailed down before 
releasing).


Time permitting, I'll have it up by Wednesday.

Re: [Radiant] [ANN] Ray extension

2008-07-21 Thread john muhl

It is possible. I'm just not sure the best way to do it.

When I started both options were considered and I guessed (possibly  
wrongly) most people aren't “scm'ing” their Radiant app. So instead of  
going around git init'ing everyone's RADIANT_ROOT for them I figured  
clones were less fuss, less muss.


So would you change the default to pull-in a submodule? Or add another  
option to switch from clone to submodule mode (i.e. `use=submodule`)?

In the case that the project is in git, you could manually create the

You could try the IE blog but /dev/null will be more effective.

Actually I suspect that when IE8 comes out the won't be nearly as

It doesn't do that yet, but it looks like where I'll be taking it the

If you've already installed extensions as submodules and then install  
Ray you'll be able to add more extensions as submodules (they'll be  
global to your project just like the others you added), except you can  
roll it all up in to one handy command, i.e. rake  
ray:extension:install name=mailer restart=passsenger – of course it  
won't do that today but within the next day it should be working that  
way.


Pretty soon after that I'll be adding ray:update,  
ray:extension:update:all and ray:extension:update name=mailer commands  
and I'll make sure these work off submodules if you've got your  
extensions (even ray) installed that way.


Thanks for the feedback.

If you are talking about IE6 then you have no place. And as for IE7 you need
to know that the current Internet Explorer team is completely new as
Microsoft disbanded the IE team when it looked like they won The Great
Browser War. There are no IE6 team members on the current IE team, so
things will only get better from here. I think once IE 8 is released into
the wild we (designers/developers) can finally start abandoning IE 6 in
earnest. Be thankful we don't need to support 5.5 any more.  ;^)

Re: [Radiant] Radiant Browser Support -- Drop IE6?

Oh dear.  Is cat skinning a requested feature of Radiant?  Surely that can
be moved to an extension, along with pelting, flaying, and tanning.

You know, for the sake of the children and vegetarians.

 I can get PNGs to work just fine with IE 6 via pngfix.js or just using IE's

 just left/top aligned images for backgrounds.

 There are other ways to skin that cat, so there should be a solution there

 There will be other issues that crop up before we're done, I'm sure.
