Some templates in paper style use <tbody> elements inside <table> to assign a
class to "body" part of that table (in this case, to make rows striped). The
problem is that the <tbody> is preceded by <tr> element, which browsers
understand as an implicit start of table body, so the following exlicit <tbody>
will actually be "nested", which is not valid.
Since that first <tr> contains table headers, wrapping it in <thead> is both
semantically correct and follows the advertised XHTML 1.1 doctype.
The <p> elements were used to create an empty space between the last menu item
(i.e. "help") and the atom feed icon, but they don't have any semantic meaning,
so it is better to use css instead.
The css rule uses top margin of 10px, which is equal to the top margin of the
menu blocks ("help", "changeset, browse", etc). Previously, with <p> elements,
the margin wasn't set explicitly and was browser-dependent.
This change is a "better version" of e028c221db4e, where <p> elements were
simply properly closed.
<p> elements can only contain inline elements, so as soon as browser encounters
a block element (e.g. block <div>) "inside" a <p>, it puts an implicit </p>.
It's better to do this explicitly.
Without this, repository paths or names containing e.g. & characters or html
tags yielded strange results, possibly allowing cross-site scripting attacks.
The purpose of this change is to make it much easier to navigate up the
repository tree when the hg web server is used to serve more than one
repository.
A "URL breadcrumb" is a path where each of the path items can be clicked to go
to the corresponding path page.
This lets you go up the folder hierarchy very quickly. For example, when showing
the list of repositories in http://myserver/myteams/myprojects, the following
"breadcrumb" will be shown:
Mercurial > myteams > myprojects
Clicking on "myprojects" reloads the page. Clicking on "myteams" goes up one
folder. Clicking on the leftmost "Mercurial" goes to the server root.
This "breadcrumb" also appears on all repository pages. For example on the
summary page of the repository at http://myserver/myteams/myprojects/myrepo the
following will be shown:
Mercurial > myteams > myprojects > myrepo / summary
This change has been applied to all templates that already had a link to the
main repository page (i.e. gitweb, monoblue, paper and coal) plus to the index
page of the spartan template.
In order to make the breadcumb links stand out the some of the template styles
have been customized.
This change complements the existing web/logourl setting, and lets the user
customize the logo image that is shown on many of the hg server pages.
If this setting is not set, hglogo.png is used.
Clicking on the logo image/text in the hgweb interface brings the
user to the Mercurial project page. The majority of users expect that
this would bring them to the top level index. I have added a new template
variable named `logourl' which allows an administrator to change this
behavior. To stay compatible with existing behavior, `logourl' will
default to http://mercurial.selenic.com/. This change is very useful in
large installations where jumping to the index is common.
