I did not explain well. Carlos said: > when not detected the > Script should prompt the user to select the distro, as the Banshee site > does, and the Opera one too. Then you said: my solution (and the one from Stefan before) already does that from the very beginning. And I wanted to say: When not detected, http://test.libreoffice.org/download-3 simply pre-selects rpm. > >> does not prompt the user to >> select the distro. > > It does the same as the Opera page does: Tries to guess the right > thing, but still offers the user to choose. > Opera page wrongly detects ubuntu deb (I'm on Mandriva and thus rpm), > but lets me choose mandriva with the controls.

Me neither. btw I don't think Carlos meant pop-up when he said "prompt". Now, what about this: If system detection successes, the system prompts a listbox with: - Windows - Mac x86 - Mac PPC - Linux x86 rpm - Linux x86 deb - Linux 64 bit rpm - Linux 64 bit deb And the right listbox is pre-selected. Else, if Linux is detected but not the distro, the system prompts a different listbox and a link. The listbox is: - Debian - Fedora - Mandriva - Mint - PCLinuxOS - Ubuntu - openSUSE The link is: - Show other versions. "Show other versions" leads to the first listbox, but with no pre-selected option. > > What the page doesn't do yet, is to check for iceweasel explicitly. > > ciao > Christian > > -- > Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@libreoffice.org > List archive: http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/website/ > *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** > > -- "Make sure that Office documents very well depends on PROPRIETARY IE capabilities."
