  • under "user functions" click preferences.

  • under comment preferences block click view source

  • notice that there are no closing tags for the "select" input type
    on both the "display mode" and the "sort order" form entries.

this is not a big deal because the closing table cell fixes all. but when
you go and layout the form without tables, using only CSS-P, well, let's just say
that those tags need to be closed otherwise your form is doing a disappearing act.


i've closed them in the template file because i would, as much as possible, like to
stay away from the GL core when making my themes. But if anybody is releasing anymore
of the 1.3x line before GL2, then maybe throw this one in there. no biggy tho.


at approx. line 589 in usersettings.php (GL1.3.9sr1) change this:


Text Formatted Code

    $selection = '<select name="commentmode">';
    $selection .= COM_optionList ($_TABLES['commentmodes'], 'mode,name',
                                  $A['commentmode']);
    $preferences->set_var ('displaymode_selector', $selection);

    $selection = '<select name="commentorder">';
    $selection .= COM_optionList ($_TABLES['sortcodes'], 'code,name',
                                  $A['commentorder']);
    $preferences->set_var ('sortorder_selector', $selection);

 

to this:


Text Formatted Code

    $selection = '<select name="commentmode">';
    $selection .= COM_optionList ($_TABLES['commentmodes'], 'mode,name',
                                  $A['commentmode']);
    $selection .= '</select>'; //closing tag added
    $preferences->set_var ('displaymode_selector', $selection);

    $selection = '<select name="commentorder">';
    $selection .= COM_optionList ($_TABLES['sortcodes'], 'code,name',
                                  $A['commentorder']);
    $selection .= '</select>';  //closing tag added
    $preferences->set_var ('sortorder_selector', $selection);

The best place for this is proobably as a patch submission to the geeklog project page at:

http://project.geeklog.net/tracker/?atid=107&group_id=6&func=browse

That way Dirk definitely won't miss it. Good timing by the way, as I think Dirk is starting to think about a 1.3.10 release...
