Обсуждение: New Ideas about website
Hi all, As I promissed in my last e-mail, I just created 3 new models for the website. http://www.ufgnet.ufg.br/euler/pgsql-www/model-1.html http://www.ufgnet.ufg.br/euler/pgsql-www/model-2.html http://www.ufgnet.ufg.br/euler/pgsql-www/model-3.html I tried to clean up the HTML code using CSS and use some sort of tables. All of the code were tested on HTML 4.01 and CSS 2. I tested it under: Links, Lynx, Mozilla, Firebird, Netscape, Galeon and Konqueror. The first one, I just conserved the content from Andreas and change the style of the boxes. The second one, I tried to reorgan ize the content. And the last one, I changed the main part. IMHO, I like the last one a lot. But I don't know about the News/Event, I think the headline + summary is more attractive than a single headline. I need to think about the content of the website. It's the most important thing of a website. Without it, we don't even have a website! What about my content ? What could we add/remove ? Talking about i18n, I just investigated the way pgadmin deal with it and remember I tried it days ago. It's quite simple, we j ust need to use the gettext extension of PHP. The other way is deal with SGML like Debian and KDE projects. Comments ? Regards, Euler Taveira de Oliveira euler (at) ufgnet.ufg.br

Advantage of the 2nd over the 3rd: it shows excerpts of the headlines. Advantage of the 3rd of the 2nd: it shows the headlines and doesn't require a great deal of scrolling. Mutual exclusion. I like the overal layout though. -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven <asmodai(at)wxs.nl> / asmodai / kita no mono PGP fingerprint: 2D92 980E 45FE 2C28 9DB7 9D88 97E6 839B 2EAC 625B http://www.tendra.org/ | http://www.in-nomine.org/~asmodai/diary/ Do unto others, as ye would have done unto you...

I like model-3 for a "top" page, ie, where you go if you've not heard of Postgres before. model-2 would work well as a www.postgresql.org/news/ sub-page. regards, tom lane

The aim at the moment is to make the portal: 1) Multilanguage capable (no.1 priority) 2) XHTML/CSS content/presentation seperation 3) Tweak the layout based on discussions over the last few *months* Once that is done, and the site is in place and running, we can tweak the CSS and layout to our hearts content. Regards, Dave.
Well, I like the boxes on the sides, however I'm not happy with making it fixed-width again... About the document structure, I personally prefer number 1 (might have to do with the fact I have done it ;)) but the othersare not bad, too.

Unlike other people here, I think I prefer just the headlines on the news/events listings. It's simply too much text for a "front page" otherwise, especially as the majority of traffic will be viewing the front page just to go somewhere else. I would like to make the left-hand column shorter in order not to make people scroll so much. Maybe slightly less spacing between links? And handling the "international" links in some other way, since this is liable to be a growing list? On the right column, we could cut the descriptions for the "top 5 Gborg projects". Finally, I notice that the links on the bottom bar are different from the links on the top blue bar. this isn't intentional, I hope? Oh, FWIW, really good work. Renders in Konq 3.0.3 perfectly. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

Actually that's all the more reason to have expanded news items on the front
page. You want the person coming in to check the docs to see the news item
about winning a new award or having a new release out. If it's just links
people are unlikely to click on them, and might miss information we want to
push towards them.
