Hi Walter
I did a quick google and found this (posted feb '07):
"Xsss4hell, what does “do almost not work” mean? The demos on the web
site are currently outdated… we’re redoing the web site, but there are
plenty of test cases in the source tree. Most of Dojo works with Opera
except for a few bugs here and there. If there are high priority
issues you find with Opera, please file bugs in the Dojo trac
<http://trac.dojotoolkit.org/>."
I'd hope that someone tests this out considerably before chunking dojo
into ofBiz's UI.
With a current IE7 and FF 2.0.0.2 on WindowsXP, on dojo's known to be
outdated website,
there are significant differences even between the behavior of IE and
FF. It's kinda scarey that many,
not just a few don't work properly with FF. It looks like they wrote the
thing with IE in mind and
FF is just luck, and just dont work at all with Opera. If it all works
*now*, I'll shut up,
but the fact that they don't eat their own dogfood is troubling. If
their API's changed so much that they
cannot just use an updated library, what kinda overhead will ofBiz have
to go through when they go from a
.4X to .9X to a 1.0 release this year?
I'm not against change. I'd love to see every list that returns rows of
data be sortable automagically.
Text validation. Numeric validation. Did I say sortable columns?
I just dont want to see ofBiz adapt a toolkit that is not 99% compliant,
and breaks normal web experience.
If the current version of Dojo does meet testing, then I can't wait for
Christmas to come!
