| 05:36 | • Edit [2267249c6da78575|2267249c6d]: Edit check-in comment. ... (artifact: 214d6bacb2 user: wyoung) | |
| 05:18 | Deepened the dark gray body text color enough to allow us to simultaneously hit the two targets specified by the WCAG 2 accessibility standard: the 4.5:1 minimum contrast ratio between the background and the link, and the 3:1 ratio between the link and the surrounding body text. We've been [forum:/forumpost/aafb17a981df416 | called out on accessibility grounds] for our prior "#444" body text color before, so this change is not merely placating the calculator. We believe the WCAG standards are based on solid human factors research, and this is a good time to address that. ... (check-in: 2267249c6d user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 04:42 | Extended [4772a9b2ccbb4c3c] to include less-common inline monospace tag types: var, samp, and kbd. Because this creates a nice and big combinatorial selector explosion, moved the explanation for this type of thing up from the "@media screen" handling of pre to this point, then referenced it from these places. Switched from SCSS to Sass syntax to make the examples clearer. This CSS is in fact generated from these samples, then hand-tweaked for clarity. ...

| 08:25 | Increased the brightness of unvisited links to bring their contrast up relative to body text above the 3:1 recommended by the [https://webaim.org/resources/linkcontrastchecker/ | WebAIM link contrast checker]. This unavoidably drops the contrast with the background from around 4:1 to 3:1, but if links are kept short (ideally, one word only) this is a good tradeoff. ... (check-in: 17a6417606 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 08:16 | Replaced static pale blue background for selected forum posts with a CSS animation that fades the default.css blue out to white over a second after page load. Also made the left border of the forumSel post's box heavy to serve as an after-animation selection indicator. ... (check-in: 9df0a451a0 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 03:09 | Simplified the style overrides on the fossil-v-git doc's ToC table to give the browser more layout freedom, preventing it from being clipped off on the right edge on smaller mobile devices. ... (check-in: ca973301e2 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 02:52 | Removed extra whitespace in command examples in fossil-v-git doc. Skin does that now. ... (check-in: b368727904 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 02:30 | Backed off on mobile body font size reduction from 0.8em to 0.9em for the same reason we did it for desktop. ... (check-in: 3e23092003 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 02:29 | Experimental styling of inline code and tt blocks in user content like everyone else (Stack Exchange, GitHub, Reddit, Discord…) do, with a light gray background and slight expansion of the box area, to offset it from the prose. ... (check-in: 4772a9b2cc user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 02:13 | Abandoned the +5% size bump for monospace fonts entirely. Its correctness is far too contingent on the font selected and the browser's quirks. ... (check-in: 9f3e59cffc user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 01:36 | Reduced the font size adjustment for monospace fonts from +10% to +5% after testing on mobile, and made it apply to the same list of monospace font classes defined in src/default.css. ... (check-in: e220683ae0 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 01:19 | Simplified the SCSS example code by use of the language's "&" feature and an extra layer to handle the .content commonality. ... (check-in: 6ad8bc587f user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 01:18 | Dropped the div.content layer out for /fileedit and /wikiedit. If it were necessary, we'd have to invert these two, but it isn't due to the earlier point about these selectors being plenty specific via direct ID element targeting. ... (check-in: 3f21415f41 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 01:00 | Don't need to be as specific on the selectors targeting the /fileedit and /wikiedit preview tabs due to their use of "<div id=" naming. There is no reasonable possibility for an overreach here. ... (check-in: 902ea745fa user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 00:17 | Merged pikchr changes from trunk. (About to rebuild the containers, and we need both sets of changes on the public demo mirror.) ... (check-in: e471c5ffa9 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 00:15 | Small tweak to make comment match code ... (check-in: fb0c1e7125 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 00:12 | The /fileedit and /wikiedit preview areas now show the skin's @media screen indent levels properly. The nine selectors we previously had per top-level tag had to become _sixteen_ (!) owing to Fossil's historical lack of consistency in applying parent classes. We could clean it all up on this branch, but then who knows how many custom skins that would break… ... (check-in: 0d7cdbb0e3 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |

| 22:38 | Removed the duplicate copy of the SCSS input to the selector explosion in default/css.txt. It's getting too complex to maintain the duplication, and it's about to get worse. Linking it by reference now. ... (check-in: f5a80cad6c user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 22:18 | Added yet another special-case handler for the new skin's @media screen indent applicator. We were handling wiki embedded docs before, but we weren't handling the /wiki pages themselves. These appear with a top-level body class of "wiki", not "doc". ... (check-in: a1ebcb230a user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |

| 05:52 | Applied the new div class=sidebar styling to a few more cases in the docs. ... (check-in: 701ea4d004 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 05:43 | Removed extra indent level from the release doc link in the permuted index, generated by the mkindex.tcl script. ... (check-in: 01764fea86 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 05:27 | Moved the page title on mobile from after the project name and the slash separator in the header to just above the content area, styled as a separate "h1" element, same as in an embedded doc with an "h1" inline. This accommodates long page titles better on narrow screens while leaving desktop-class windows alone. Reduced the size of h1 to be closer to h2 as a consequence. Also removed the new logo's top-padding on mobile to fit in better with all this. ... (check-in: f2ef252ef8 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 05:06 | Triumphant return of the logo in the title area, lost in the transition from "original" to the trunk default skin. ... (check-in: 45b0550160 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 04:50 | Bumped submenu font size up slightly. This isn't so much a change from trunk as a restoration of trunk, tracking the overall body font size changes. ... (check-in: 1b20533368 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 04:42 | Added three new block-element classes to the skin to replace use of "blockquote" with semantic alternatives: * "indent" for cases where the only purpose was to indent things * "blockquote" where you want an actual block quote in a wiki doc and thus can't use a "blockquote" element due to the historical misuse of this tag, preventing us from doing the same for it as we do for MD * "sidebar" when the reason you wanted an indented paragraph was to create a sidebar; this is styled much like a blockquote in MD (or the new "blockquote" class in wiki docs) but floats to the right. Using all three of these in the remaining www/ docs that still used explicit "blockquote" tags. (If you're wondering why the prior commit claims to have dealt with all of these tags when this commit belies that, it's because this work was done en masse, then split up into two related commits to keep the commit messages more on-point. It was easier to commit these two chunks of work in this order. It would have required a complicated dance with the stash to commit them in the more logical order.) ...

| 04:32 | • Edit [54977e1413a6d597|54977e1413]: Edit check-in comment. ... (artifact: 281e60ca2e user: wyoung) | |
| 04:29 | Replaced nearly all explicit uses of the "blockquote" tag in the embedded docs: * Constructs like "<blockquote><pre>" are now simply "<pre>" * Ditto "<blockquote><b>" for command examples, which then allowed me to get rid of explicit "br" elements; pre does that for us. * Where it was used merely to get an indent for a code block, we're now using pre or verbatim instead, depending on whether we need embedded HTML and/or pre-wrap handling. (Not the same thing as the prior item.) In some places, this let us replace use of HTML-escaped code blocks in pre with verbatim equivalents, not needing the escaping, allownig the doc source to read more like the rendered HTML. * Use of blockquotes to get hierarchical indenting is no longer necessary; the skin does that. A good example is indenting ol and ul lists under the parent paragraph; additional manual indenting is no longer necessary. The only remaining instances of "blockquote" under www/ are necessary: # The copyright release doc is plain HTML, without the fossil-doc wrapper, giving it no access to the new skin improvements. # One MD doc wants a blockquote in the middle of a list, and the current parsing rules don't let us use ">" there. # The skinning ...

| 04:01 | Small cosmetic tweaks to the mirrortogithub doc on this branch to work better with the skin. ... (check-in: cabbf1ca54 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 03:59 | Merged backslash fix in from trunk ... (check-in: d9debe90ab user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 03:58 | Use of a trailing backslash in a command example in the mirrortogithub doc wasn't rendering as expected, leading the command to be split in the HTML rendering, not continued across multiple lines as intended. Replaced it with an HTML named entity to sidestep this quirk of the MD renderer. ... (check-in: 221cf52bf5 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 02:57 | Removed a bunch of explicit blockquote tags in the encryptedrepos doc which were essentially duplicating the hierarchical indent structure now implemented by this branch's skin changes. This is why we want to do this at the skin level: so all pages get this appearance, avoiding the need for manual formatting on each page. ... (check-in: 01e364c6f1 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 02:53 | Replaced use of an explicit "blockquote" tag in an MD doc with a leading ">". It's not only simpler markup, it generates slightly different HTML output, leading to better formatting under this skin. ... (check-in: 9f71793cdf user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 02:39 | Reworked the remaining custom CSS in the server index doc to cascade properly with the new table styling in the skin. ... (check-in: d3c55b57f1 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 02:35 | Removed explicit CSS at the top of the server index doc. In some ways, this was a prototype of this branch's skin changes, with the result that we were getting double-indents, one from the skin and one from the local additions meant to give hanging headers to the current trunk default skin. ... (check-in: 3291f68fe3 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 01:30 | Removed extra space around pre.verbatim blocks in wiki output; plain "pre" has space already, and the extra means that if you use them both on the same page, you see the difference. ... (check-in: 06dfb68302 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |

| 23:39 | Removed table styling overrides once more for the checkin_names doc's Quick Reference table. Prior backout commit reverted that. ... (check-in: 2da64ba4ac user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 23:37 | Found a simpler fix for [6b40ee53]: put a blank line between the end of the floated-right table and the first paragraph. Reduces the diff for this file relative to trunk to a single LF. ... (check-in: 6088d20337 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |

| 23:12 | Merged trunk. Notably, drh's [bb3de39ffefb3f20] works seamlessly with this branch's skin. ... (check-in: 4f9cb1d1e0 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 23:05 | • Closed ticket [0fd3c7d243]: wiki inserts P tags in tables plus 5 other changes ... (artifact: 38dd720d52 user: wyoung) | |
| 23:03 | Disabling the "auto paragraph" feature in the wiki renderer when styling an HTML "table" element. Without this, the first cell's contents gets wrapped in "p" tags, unnecessarily. (None of the other cells are treated thus.) With the trunk default skin, this extra tag was invisible, but with this branch's skin, it shows up as a double-height first row in every table. For tables with a header row, this may appear to be an intentional esthetic choice, but it's not; it's a rendering bug. Credit for this goes to Stephan Beal (the eminent repo archaeologist) plus whichever "anonymous" posted [/info/0fd3c7d243 | this ticket], way back in 2010! ...

| 17:56 | Wrapped the TH1 vars declared for custom skinning in backticks for better MD formatting, avoiding the need to escape underscores to prevent them from being interpreted as requesting italics. Fixed a typo in one of the variable names while in there; the visual noise of one of these escaped underscores hid the typo. ... (check-in: 3b505e6f55 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

| 21:02 | Yesterday's reworking of document body indents left forum post blockquotes double-indented. Applied the same restrictions to them as to other element types. ... (check-in: 8fe4022998 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 20:31 | Made title and menubar fonts more closely match the trunk default. ... (check-in: 7ebb635ec6 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 20:24 | Moved the first paragraph of the checkin names doc up above the Quick Reference sidebar table to sidestep the previously-mentioned wiki rendering bug, at the minor expense of pushing said sidebar down slightly. (Also removed local overrides on the table, to let the skin's table styling take over fully.) The prior checkin's fix the first-line spacing problem doesn't suffice; the bug still leaves this paragraph unindented and without the same line spacing as the others. ... (check-in: 6b40ee53c8 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport) | |
| 20:12 | It is possible to trick the wiki to HTML renderer into leaving the first paragraph unwrapped by "p" tags, as with the checkin_names.wiki doc, in which case you get no first-line padding. The trunk version of the skin works around this by putting 10px of padding in at the top, which we dialed back out in Inskinerator Modern since the MD renderer does not do this. Put it back, but as 1ex around the whole doc, giving a smidge of breathing room in odd cases like this one without putting too much in for the other cases where the paragraph spacing suffices. ...
