rvm_css (v1.2)

jstubbs · 2008-01-02 11:06:03

I actually use two forms – “header” and “header_error” – first one for normal pages and the second one goes in error_default page.

In the header form:

<!-- CSS -->
<txp:rvm_css format="link" n="default" />
<txp:rvm_css format="link" n="menu" />

Produces:

<!-- CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.mysite.com/css/default.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.mysite.com/css/menu.css" />

With the same rvm_css tags in the header_error form, I get this:

<!-- CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.mysite.com/css/default.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.mysite.com/css/default.css" />

Its picking up the default.css but not the menu.css.

Neil and Jonathan, try version 0.3 of the plugin (see first post). That should fix both problems.

As for stm_javascript… it’s probably best to ask that plugin author to add this functionality, which would be more efficient (in code size) than creating an companion plugin for stm_javascript.

Would this be worthwhile if using a php styleswitcher? I have this code in the head of the page. I can change txp:css but how would I alter the other code and would it be any good anyway?

<style type="text/css" media="screen,projection">
@import "<txp:site_url />textpattern/css.php?n=default";
</style>
<txp:php>
global $prefs;
$cookie_s1 = cs('s1');
$cookie_s2 = cs('s2')
;
if ($cookie_s2) {
echo n.'<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen,projection" href="'.hu.'textpattern/css.php?n='.$cookie_s2.'" />';
}
if ($cookie_s1) {
echo n.'<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen,projection" href="'.hu.'textpattern/css.php?n='.$cookie_s1.'" title="'.$cookie_s1.'" />';
}
</txp:php>
<txp:css format="link" rel="alternate stylesheet" media="screen,projection" n="c" title="cool" />
<txp:css format="link" rel="alternate stylesheet" media="screen,projection" n="w" title="warm" /> 
etcetera

peter, you’re loading 3 – 5 style sheets so rvm_css would give a huge speed increase (saves 3 – 5 times the overhead of starting PHP and TXP to get a style sheet). The fact that your template contains a PHP style switcher doesn’t matter. It’s not the switching part that benefits, but the speed of loading the individual stylesheets:

@import "<txp:rvm_css n="default" />";

and replace <txp:css with <txp:rvm_css in all other places (see plugin help for other steps required after installation).

Brilliant! Thank you, Ruud! It’s all working great!

Ruud

thank you for yet another useful plugin.

Quick question: should plugins or mods assume the directory separator character is ‘/’ or should they use the DS definition of a directory separator as defined in constants.php? AFAIK, Windows uses ‘\’ as its path separator.

I’d like to know because I do use the ‘DS’ definition for directory separators in some of my own plugins and just wondered what the developers take on it is.

In fact, is the ‘DS’ is even needed at all (ie can Windows survive a ‘/’ separated file path without choking.)?

Many thanks in advance,

As I understand it, windows accepts both / and \ (but I can’t test in windows)
In TXP sometimes DS is used, sometimes a hardcoded / is used.

Yes, Windows accepts both characters as an input path delimiter, but you should be extra careful if you process directory paths which were read as an OS output. It depends on the consistent use of DS in both path building and path processing code whether your code works cross platform.

Case in point is for instance here which didn’t work in Windows in its previous incarnation with hardcoded directory separators.

net-carver · 2008-01-03 15:47:08

Ruud, Wet

Thank you both for answering my questions. I’ll be sticking with using the DS definition after reading your posts.

Ruud

Sorry if this seems to be hijacking your plugin thread but my question was honestly triggered by your code. I think in future I’ll start a new thread for any similar issues arising.
