Ah well, I figured as many people on this list who use PHP someone would
have a good suggestion. It was so quiet I was beginning to think that there
was a problem with my email since even other mail lists were really slow. I
think I only received about 15% of my usual mail volume yesterday.
After playing around yesterday with a trial version or two I think I'll
probably end up with ZenCart even if I am ending up rewriting a whole bunch
of it to minimize the tables and replace some of the mark-up with better
semantic mark-up.
Why in the world do so many CMS and/or shopping cart people love to write:
<table class=" 'php-variable-1' -table" width="100%" border="0"
cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr class=" 'php-variable-1' -row">
<td class=" 'php-variable-1'-table-header">variable</td>
</tr>
<tr class=" 'php-variable-1' -row">
<td class=" 'php-variable-1'-table-body">variable</td>
</tr>
<tr class=" 'php-variable-1' -row">
<td class=" 'php-variable-1'-table-footer">variable</td>
</tr>
</table>
When what they really mean is
<table class=" 'php-variable-1' -table" width="100%" border="0"
cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<th>variable</th>
</tr><tr>
<td>variable</td>
</tr>
</table>
Because the stylesheet defines
php-variable-table = border, color, font
php-variable-table-row = vertical-align
php-variable-table-heading = border, background-color, color, font, bold,
text-align: center
php-variable-table-footer = background color, height
Then of course every you could use on the cart has its own style block for
each and every one of these tag placemements, many of which are defined
exactly the same.
table.category, table.reviews, table.search, table.product, table.whatever
{
border: 1px solid #666;
background: white;
color: black;
font-family: font list;
font-size: 10px;
}
(always small fixed pixel sizes as well ever heard of accessibility?)
