[NBP web-reskin] NBP Reskin Development Questions

[Edie Coletti]

Great!! I'm trying to get the color pallet/scheme and images for you to use
on the home page. I'm also working on a site map to match directories &
files with menu options. It will also identify the pages that are
dynamically generated, requiring only template and style sheet changes.

Thanks Edie,

Richard is working on the home page prototype.

I have been working on DevCamps "git" and understanding the templates.

Komal is working on the Style Sheets.

Hi Steve:
Nothing silly about your questions. I can certainly understand wanting
to
get a thorough understanding of the environment. I've answered question
1;
I'll leave the last three for Ethan to respond to.

Also, it is really important that we get a prototype of the home page
ready
for accessibility testing as soon as possible; any sense when that might
be
possible? For the home page, you don't really need templates as this
page
will be unique. The templates are primarly used for the secondary pages.

Thanks,
Edie

Hi Ethan and Edie,

These questions might sound silly, but here goes....

(1) Are we going to be keeping the current directory structure? From
what I have seen and tested it looks like directories are tied to the
Apache and Interchange configuration settings. Is this true?

catalogs\nbp\pages		.html files

htdocs\nbp			.css files

catalogs\nbp\templates\regions	templates

[We are keeping the current directory structure. There is so much logic
in
the pages that will require little modification that it could be a
potential
disaster to change the directory structure.]
 
(2) Also, how does [var CUSTOM_CSS] work?  I can not find this template,
so maybe it is not a template, but I do see that it renders the links
for the style sheets in htdocs\nbp like this:

       <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/nbp/main_font.css">

       <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
ref="/nbp/main_color_default.css">

       <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="/nbp/main_size_default.css">  



(3) Are there any Apache and Interchange configuration settings that
will limit us to how to create the directory structure for the pages
that will not be in catalogs\nbp\pages?


(4) How about the graphics? It looks like these are not limited to
Apache or Interchange configuration settings and can go anywhere. By
looking at index.html I see they are accessed in various directories
like:

nbp/images/images/
home/
support/

Regards,

Steve
