issue # 20140602.1221 'breadcrumbs.txt must not be utf-8-with-bom'
object : Breadcrumbs
symptom : If breadcrumbs.txt is utf-8-with-bom, then in the the root
page, the breadcrumbs for the child pages will be missing.
ref : Screenshots # 20140602.1222/1223
workaround : Avoid breadcrumbs.txt being utf-8-with-bom
priority : low
status :
note : The breadcrumbs.txt file shall be abolished anyway.
note :

issue # 20140314.0411
object : daftari.ini
symptom : The umlauts look bad from online.
reason : The inifile is UTF-8-without-BOM.
todo : Possible explicitly create it as UTF-8-with-BOM?
workaround : Manually supplement the BOM (e.g. Notepad++ does it).
priority :
status : open

//--------------------------------------------------
// note # 20140307.0411 'debug issue # 20140306.1311'
// location : File jsi-ajax.php. But actually daftari.js is meant.
// finding : The guilty is '$iIndex = $aTagid[2];' which is zero,
// and thus just points to the very first td-tag on the page.
// finding : The zero is correct on the JavaScript side, it is the first
// table cell to edit on the page indeed. But here the not-editable
// cell of a form's table is not skipped as expected, although it
// carries the attribute tagged wafailiskip="yes".
// finding : The JavaScript skips the wafailiskip="yes" elements when
// counting, but this PHP does not know about this attribute. Possibly
// The JavaScript should count them as well, just not offer them for edit.
// finding : There is this misconception so far:
// (1) The wafailiskip attribute is meant to skip elements which are
// not present in the physical HTML file but inserted via PHP.
// - Thus this attribute must not be used in the physical HTML file.
// - To prevent physical elements from being edited, a new dedicated
// attribute must be introduced. E.g. in moonwalk.html
// form id="id20111231o0222".
// clue : The locations for development are
// - jsi-ajax.php function # 20110818.1322 htmlElementEdit()
// - daftari.js function # 20110811.1221 execPageSwitchEditmodeOn()
// status : Finished.

issue # 20140306.1311 'edit hits wrong cell'
desc : Editing a table cell below hits a form table cell above.
ref : Screenshots # 20140306.1312/1313
finding : See file jsi-ajax.php note # 20140307.0411
note : Attribute 'wafailiskip' is must not be used in the physical files,
only from PHP-inserted sequences. Thus we need a different attribute
to prevent edit in physical elements.
note : See issue # 20140306.1311 and debug note # 20140307.0411
solution : Introduce new dedicated attribute 'hikiulinzi' for physical
HTML file to indicate that element shall not be offered for edit.
workaround : None
priority : high
status : Finished with with seqence # 20140307.0431 'read the element protection'.
note : Example use case is moonwalk.html form id="id20111231o0222".
note :

issue # 20140303.0622 'unwanted whitespace shift'
desc : After having edited an editpoint, the whitespace in the HTML,
e.g. the indent of a li-element is no more the same as before. This
does not impair the HTML itself, but the user optics in a text editor.
ref : Screenshot # 20140303.0622
workaround : Tolerate it.
status :
note :

issue # 20140302.1511
title : IE prints hidden 'br' tags
location : E.g. daftari/help.html seqence id20121111o1833.
descript : Inside the lingos exist br-tags. Firefox/Chrome/Opera do
not use space for the inactive languages, but IE prints all the empty
space for the br-tags of the inactive languages.
ref : Screenshots # 20140302.1511..1516
workaround : Use ul/li-tags instead.
category : Browser issues
status :

issue # 20140302.1431 'h4-tag not supported'
description : When using Lingos inside a 'h4' block, the languages
do not separate.
loc : e.g. daftari/help.html
workaround : Use something like
'<p id="id20120901o2005" style="text-align:center; font-size:1.2em; color:#900060;">'
status : Closed.
solution : Supplement 20140302.1441/144102 in jsi-langsplit.js (not yet tested heavily).
note :

issue # 20120825.0221
group : breadcrumbs.php
title : Quotes in the CSV
descr : So far, everything works what we need, but only because we introcuce single
quotes in the html instead of only double quotes as usual. Consider e.g.
this field "<span style='font-family:Comic Sans MS,Arial;'>", which were
better "<span style='font-family:\"Comic Sans MS,Arial;\">'".
There should be a way to use double quotes in the CSV. Or is it already?

todo # 20120824.1241
group : Daftari
title : Tighten the edit request
descript : So far, the request for editing an element passes the element
tag and it's counter. From that the php script inversly calculates the
target element in the original file. Todo: Let's add another information
to the request, the original text of the element to edit. Then the php
script can compare it with what it found in the original file and see
whether it hit the correct element.

issue # 20120508.0921
title : IE fails to set innerHTML of paragraph
description : IE has a problem with setting the innerHTML of a paragraph,
it throws a 'JScript unknown error'.
workaround : Wrap the paragraph in a div.

issue # 20111002.1922
object : editpoint/configread.php, wakati/inc.constants.php, wakati/class.obyekt.php
symptom :
reason :
todo : Check filepermissions before attempting to create a new datadir

(issue # 20110901.1741)
descr : If the URL points to a folder, and the server served automatically
the default 'index.html', then we get the filename blank here! We must
support the 'index.html' somehow. Or is there some way to make
document.location.href telling the filename anyway?!
location : File daftari/daftari.js function # 20110820.1741 getFileName()
workaround : Put the following line in the header of the index.html
'<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=index.html">'. Haha,
this is not good, it may put the browser into endles recursion!
solution :
status : Unknown
note : The recommended workaround meta-line in daftaridemo/index.html was
shutdown since quite a while, and I did not notice a bad effect. Not sure
what about the issue. Is it still an issue? (note # 20140303.0631)
note :

issue # 20110821.1221
title : 'IE fails injecting TD tag icons'
problem : In IE, the TD tag icons are inserted as expected.
But when pressing the save button, the icon disappears, the cell border
is broken (merged with neighbour cell) and the content is not saved.
workaround : Dont edit table cells in IE.
note : For a final solution go js.quirkscms.js::saveEdit(), where the DOM
changes for the edit textarea are reverted. This reverting goes wrong.

reason : Looks useful
todo : Check out the PHPLinq library

issue # 20110528.0043
object : image scaling
symptom : perhaps non-optimal scaling of thumbnails by imagemagick?
reason :
todo : The 30-Jahre-MMV series is scaled by imagemagick. I wonder why the
d45, d90, d180 flavours hardly have filesize difference. Make the
same scaling with GIMP, where they should considerably differe.

proposal # 20110528.0042
object : html dl tag e.g. <dl><dt>fieldname</dt><dd>fieldvalue</dd></dl>
symptom :
reason : perhaps it is useful
todo : try it with some table output
workaround :
status : curiosity
note :

proposal # 20110528.0041
object : html label tag e.g. <label for="email"> <input type="text" id="email" name="...">
symptom :
reason : perhaps it is useful
todo : try it with some form fields
workaround :
status : curiosity
note :

issue # 20110526.0341
object : Website, new chapter 'making of'. Describe e.g. various
features, e.g. 'icon-seeking algorithm' (retrieving the
fitting flavour for a specific purpose, compare e.g.
issue # 20110526.0321) ..

reason :
todo : New page or subchapter to 'about'.

issue # 20110526.0321 'dimensional flavours not recognized'
object : _19890426-1552_dia_VERSION-1_.png / _19890426-1552_dia_x0180y0120_.jpg
and many others recognized by the delayed rendering
symptom : In the album, not the d0180 thumb is printed but wrongly the v1
flavour (which consumes 3.9 MB instead of 9 KB)
reason :
todo : Evaluate the 'x' and 'y' tokens!
workaround :
status : fixed # 20110526.1141 in the thumbnail selector algorithm
note :

issue # 20110524.1201 'all album broken'
object : all album
symptom : starting with two broken lines
reason : an buddyfile without corename, e.g. '_20090709-1743_.txt'
todo : make album writer correctly write the timestamp anyway, even though there is no corename
workaround : manually delete the two lines in all.txt
status : open
