No. Text is hidden, because the content part in the theme is just defined to be the area in the BgContainer. I was wondering if there was a fix that could be used so NA site that is being built on the CMS server, now on the libreoffice-na.us site, so there would not be any hidden text issues. Yes: Don't force the text/elements to be wider as the available area. Remove your hard formatting. The table work was to deal with some alignment issues, but not it is being rebuilt to the CMS server specs. Trying to do alignment with tables is bad. Better use appropriate css styles on semantic elements. Only use a table when what you have is actually tabular data. Is there a way that the right site of the page would auto wrap so there is no hidden text? Again: If you tell This element is 780pixels wide, but there is only room for 600pixels, you're forcing the text to not wrap. Get rid of your manually defined styles, especially the fixed-width specifications. Start with semantic html, i.e. what the job of the element is, and then work on the layout, not the other way round. I want the pages to be the best looking pages that can be done using the CMS server CSS. Well - you can use your own style=... tags in the html, those are not stripped. And furthermore the CSS is not by the CMS, it was created by us, so when the CSS is lacking/needs some more styles, those can be added of course. But using hard formatting is very, very bad. And don't just create divs because you want to indent a paragraph, just specify that indent on the paragraph for example. Just because the CMS is configured to allow manually specified styles doesn't mean that all manually specified styles make sense. ciao Christian -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

I never liked them much. Now that we have about 600px width for space, we need to guard as much of it is possible. Actually, for the installs, I added thought adding German might be good, since that is the last language not listed that the US schools teach in my area. Right now the installs on the CMS site shows 3.3.2 and not 3.3.3, so that may need to changed. -- Also I was wondering how the system would compensate for all the shared folders and links so the files will be properly located on the ISO of the DVD? The only one I have seen so far is from Brazil and it looks like they did very little that was similar to what the NA DVD will need. Maybe someone could PM me about how that will work, or point me to the documentation already available. As for the extensions and such that is not currently on our DVD and currently resides in my private extension folders; I was wondering if anyone who is currently working on a CMS site would want these file uploaded to a shared folder so everyone could use them. I still thing LibreOffice need to have their own large extension and template site. The dictionaries now on the NA testing site are many, many, more than listed in the current LO/LO-Planet extension listing. The same with the templates I have in my template folders. LO needs to not have the link for these .oxt files, or archived files, point to a flaky OOo server or any server that is totally pro OOo over LibreOffice. Why should we promote using OOo's server when the files could be on a shared folder of a LibreOffice server/system. So do anyone want 100+ .oxt extension [not dictionaries] uploaded to a shared folder, along with the 1000+ template sample files that are not .oxt files? I most likely have a lot of artwork from free sources that could be uploaded as well. It is up to the groups to say yes or no. If anyone would like a archived file containing the .oxt files, or other stuff, let me know. I would be able to make them available some way, some where, for people to look and see what they are all about. Every extension file that I downloaded from OOo's site has an associated PDF file printed from the download page[s] so people can know what these files are all

I also wondered about some other items that might crop up. Why the vertical navigation instead of the horizontal second or third ones like both LO.org site and the wiki site. Different theme.. I just chanted that - Look at the site right now: http://dvd.north-america.libreofficebox.org The vertical navigation tends to remove needed screen space, as I see it. I never liked them much. Now that we have about 600px width for space, we need to guard as much of it is possible. Right - I tend to agree, so maybe we need to make our own theme, again, or just convince others to let us Actually, for the installs, I added thought adding German might be good, since that is the last language not listed that the US schools teach in my area. Uh - I would be hard sell on that - not impossible, but a very very hard sell. I would much prefer to finish what we started without changing the target at this point, for this 21 day period - let's keep very focused and get this done, well. Right now the installs on the CMS site shows 3.3.2 and not 3.3.3, so that may need to changed. Old files Tim, the HTML files there having been sitting dormant for a couple of months. Like I said the reason for a hard date this time was so that we don't stall, again. (yes I know I'm talking about and to myself maybe) -- Also I was wondering how the system would compensate for all the shared folders and links so the files will be properly located on the ISO of the DVD? The only one I have seen so far is from Brazil and it looks like they did very little that was similar to what the NA DVD will need. Right and it appears to me that they also did not use the CMS to produce the .iso, only for distribution, so far. But there is a question there I've been running through my mind today also and I suppose should be taken up on the projects list. Maybe someone could PM me about how that will work, or point me to the documentation already available. We need to talk about on, or I should say: I thought we all agreed to use the projects list to discuss libreofficebox issues. As for the extensions and such that is not currently on our DVD and currently resides in my private extension folders; Please move this question to a different email thread, maybe with a subject line about the upcoming extension/template site. //drew -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

In this case you are using the adverb libre and its corresponding noun liberté which mean the same = freedom. Anyway, these are all semantics. The fact remains that the way you qualified the free (in the sense of freedom or liberty) is fine for those who are not native to the language which is the what the statement attempts to do.
