[RT] Skin engine
If we would let the user choose different standard html-output template
like zengarden et al. that would makes it easy to build a skin engine.
Basicly what the user has to define is the css he wants to use for the
output. That he can choose from over a hundert or thousand free designs
out in the web.
All information the skin engine would need are Provider (base html
output with css-tags) css-provider (base css-files). With that
information the user can have a great design out of the box for the
default pub.
[16:52] <gregor> make the css editable in one form
[16:52] <gregor> version it
[16:52] <gregor> etc
[16:53] <MrTompkins> gregor, true
[16:53] <gregor> requires standard id's with content parts, like
breadcurmb, content etc
[16:53] <gregor> there are some bugzilla issues for that
[16:53] <MrTompkins> And do not forget about al the xslts
[16:53] <gregor> thorsten_docu: that would be a fairly easy yet powerful
change
[16:53] <gregor> the xslt too, but you can do a lot with the css alone
[16:53] <MrTompkins> yep
[16:53] <MrTompkins> I love it
[16:54] <thorsten_docu> :)
[16:54] <gregor> lowering the learning curve
WDYT?
