Re: [themes] Re: [infrastructure] [Drupal.org problem] IE7 Compatibility issue needs your attention
by Edgard Durand 21 Jan '06

Sorry about my rant about Microsoft IE. I grow up addressing incompatibilities every time a new version was rolled. Seems this time it won't be the case (I really hope so). Please keep us posted about the cause of the issue(s), in case we need to fix our sites too. >Message: 2 >Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2006 10:16:00 -0800 >From: Kieran Lal <kieran(a)civicspacelabs.org> >Subject: Re: [themes] Re: [infrastructure] [Drupal.org problem] IE7 > Compatibility issue needs your attention > >Last time I checked the theme on Drupal.org did not validate so I >think we need to be careful about accusations of incompatibility with >standards until we see the evidence. > >Cheers, >Kieran =============== Edgard Durand http://capmex.biz 2006-01-21

Keryn, you might also want to share this information with our community of themers, which I have CC'd. They use the same software to build themes for more than 60, 000 sites and it would be good to identify issues early that would affect those sites. We also have a page on issues that themers have with different browsers: http://drupal.org/node/37156. If you have some tips for IE7 compatibility I'd be happy to add them.

Hello again, After a quick research I found an interesting article "Star HTML and Microsoft IE7": http://www.webstandards.org/buzz/archive/2005_12.html This might be the issue they are referring. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Best regards. Edgard Durand 2006-01-20

Hello all, Why do they think the problem is on our side? Unless they are addressing an issue with our themes not adhering to standards, they don't have a valid point. I suspect this IE7 release will break many sites, just to force people to code in a way only this browser can understand. My suggestion is that we need to keep ourselves very skeptical about their incompatibility reports and keep focusing on standards. If they want to release a broken browser that's up to them. Let's see what those supposed incompatibilities are. >> Hello, >> >> My name is Keryn Mark and I am part of the Internet Explorer 7 >> Compatibility team at Microsoft.

Accessibility
by Robert Castelo 14 Jan '06

14 Jan '06

Cross posting this to the docs list as well.... Just added a page about Drupal's accessibility compliance: http://drupal.org/node/44661 I've tested all the core themes, but only with book content pages. We should really make a checklist of pages and test them across all the core themes. Anyone have any other info the want to add to the page? By the way, yes of course, the page itself fails accessibility compliance! Just a minor thing, but hopefully we can get Bluebeach to be accessible. We should also have a page about Drupal producing code that validates, many other CMS applications don't, so it is a feature to be proud off. Best regards, Robert

Some theme proposals for SEO
by Laura Scott 11 Jan '06

11 Jan '06

One of the websites I developed has a reasonably strong presence on Google News. However, many, if not most, of the links Google has are titled "Add New Comment". I wondered why, and came to the conclusion that google is reading the "links" tags that contain that link as containing the permalink. So I have changed that class tag to "action". While I was at it, I also changed the title tags to h1. I will watch over the coming week how Google News reads the content with these changes, and report my results here. But I think that SEO is something that is worthwhile for consideration as an ongoing theme development topic. Already Drupal sites do quite well. On regular Google search, sites seem rather well optimized. But these anamolies, such as with Google News, point to areas where we might look to improve. Does anyone else have thoughts or experiences on SEO, and how we all might modify existing themes and alter approaches to future themes?

Hi, I have read through some of the comments, and a lot of them are not adding anything usefull to the content. Do I just delete them? Kobus >>> kieran(a)civicspacelabs.org 1/10/2006 6:55:50 PM >>> http://drupal.org/node/11812 Hi, it would be helpful if we could update the page and include the information in the comments. If someone has the time to edit this page based on the comments it would be appreciated. This page has 15 comments that need to be cleaned up.
