[jira] Commented: (CLK-545) Better rendering of disabled link controls

["Adrian A. (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLK-545?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12705373#action_12705373 ] 

Adrian A. commented on CLK-545:
-------------------------------

Disabled links can be rendered as a link ("a" tag) and still keep the "disabled" behavior (but  also the link one -> but without following the link).

Changes:
1. add class "disabled" for the "a" tag.
2. set the title to, e.g. "Disabled Link" for the "a" tag
3. set onclick="return false;"

Following style can be used:
<code>
a:link.disabled,
a:visited.disabled {
            cursor:default;
            filter: alpha( opacity = 50 );
            -moz-opacity: 0.5;
            -khtml-opacity: 0.5;
            opacity: 0.5;
 }
</code>
It will make the link look disabled (even for icons and background if any), but much better than actual simple string rendering.

> Add better rendering of disabled link controls. Right now is a simple span text and there's no visual hint that this might be a disabled Link (except for that ActionButton).
> Possible improvements:
> - 50% opacity for images/icons
> - title on mouse over
> - href browser status bar hint on mouse over (but no click possible - since the link is disabled)
