I don't mean to be a bug, but I am curious as to why I don't get any acknowledgment to this question. I know everyone is very busy. I am trying to use the proper protocol for addressing this issue. The following is an issue I posted at drupal.org. I've tried to be as specific as possible. If I'm not clear, can someone let me know what other details you might need? As always, thanks in advance for all assistance.
I put this out in the forums, but it got overlooked. Didn't know if I should put it here, but taking a chance that maybe someone else might have this problem. I am playing with the 5.x beta with my custom theme. It is here on a temp site: www.memoryflix.biz. I have inserted the new primary link code in the page.tpl.php file. I have graphic tabs in the header for the primary links. It took some fiddling to get them, along with the background image, in the proper position. I used bluemarine page.tpl.php as the basis for the theme. Everything looked good in 4.7.4, as here: www.lifeonilife.com. My only problem is the tabs are now spaced too far apart. I have another theme that is doing the same thing. Looked fine in 4.7.4, but now there are spaces between the tabs. From that theme, it seems it's the size or padding or margin of the button_over image, but nothing in the css that I change is squashing the space. I even dropped the background image to a 1px width. I realize that the new primary link code is using navlist. My css has navcontainer. I tried changing all the navcontainers to navlist and that really messed things up. So I left the new code as is and put it in
I just want to get rid of the spaces. I didn't want to put this in as an issue because I THINK it's got to be the css, although that hasn't changed from the 4.7.4 installation. I'm a newbie who has discovered custom theming and Dries' post said newbies could contribute to the testing of 5.x beta. I'm definitely in the "dangerous" category. I lived life as a tester for six years, testing against Oracle databases and SAS. Never want to see that life again, but I'll gladly volunteer to test if anyone wants to give me some use cases, or I can just try and break things myself!
Thanks in advance.
Just wondering if anyone has had time to look at this. I did install antique_modern theme and it has the same problem. If someone could just give me a little direction, I'd appreciate it. Looks like it's any theme that has tabs for primary links. Thanks again.
