I want to share some of my experiences of the last few days trying to get the alternative starter app of Michael Beller to work.
It realy looks great and the templates by almsaeedstudio are very nice; it gives your site a professional feel and look. I used the latest version of the app that's on Github with web2py 2.14.3. Also used the jqgrid jquery library (see jqGrid <http://www.trirand.com/jqgridwiki/doku.php)>. ). jqGrid is an Ajax-enabled JavaScript control that provides solutions for representing and manipulating tabular data. I chose it because I think it's nicer then the standard web2py grid or datatables and has real neat functionality and it worked great in web2py apps I made thus far. And then my problems begin.... the stylesheets: <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','css/bootstrap.min.css')}}"/> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.4.0/css/font-awesome.min.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.ionicframework.com/ionicons/2.0.1/css/ionicons.min.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','css/calendar.css')}}"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','css/AdminLTE.min.css')}}"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','css/skins/skin-blue-light.min.css')}}"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','css/web2py.css')}}"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','css/web2py-bootstrap3.css')}}"/> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','guriddo/jquery-ui.css')}}" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','guriddo/ui.jqgrid-bootstrap.css')}}" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{=URL('static','css/starter.css')}}"> and the javascript libraries <script src="{{=URL('static','js/jquery.js')}}"></script> <script src="{{=URL('static','js/calendar.js')}}"></script> <script src="{{=URL('static','js/web2py.js')}}"></script> <script src="{{=URL('static','js/app.min.js')}}"></script> <script src="{{=URL('static','js/bootstrap.min.js')}}"></script> <script src="{{=URL('static','js/web2py-bootstrap3.js')}}"></script> <script src="{{=URL('static','guriddo/grid.locale-en.js')}}"></script> <script src="{{=URL('static','guriddo/jquery.jqGrid.min.js')}} "></script> are out of control; at least my control. My level of knowledge of javascript, bootstrap, css is basic and these interactions are beyond my scope: buttons disappearing, screen functionality disappearing but also ajax functions not working anymore. Reshuffeling the order of the stylesheets and javascript libraries has various effects on the results of the layout and functionality of the pages, but not the one I hoped for. I am a bit pessimistic that this combination will work. Wanted to share this with you. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
