[14:39:18 EDT(-0400)] <athena> hey EricDalquist - i had a question about how we should fix the multi-profile support
[14:39:31 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ok
[14:39:36 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I still haven't read over your email
[14:39:42 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> planning on it for mid-week
[14:39:45 EDT(-0400)] <athena> it seems like the right thing to do is to go the route of the other changes we've made since import/export was created and start referencing profiles by name rather than id
[14:39:52 EDT(-0400)] <athena> so that the ids aren't meaningful anymore
[14:39:55 EDT(-0400)] <athena> gotcha
[14:40:37 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i'm just not sure whether we want to use the existing profile and layout title fields or create a new fname-type database field for those two tables
[14:41:01 EDT(-0400)] <athena> it seems like themes and structures are already just going ahead w/ using the titles
[14:41:08 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[14:41:20 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the only thing to think about is where it will need to be referenced
[14:41:21 EDT(-0400)] <athena> it's kind of ugly, but i guess it's consistent w/ what we're already doing
[14:41:35 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so will the name of a profile ever exist in a URL?
[14:41:45 EDT(-0400)] <athena> no
[14:41:46 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> if so it should probably have a fname field
[14:41:48 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> if not
[14:41:52 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> then just use the name
[14:42:08 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i don't think there's really a user-visible way to select profiles anymore
[14:42:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ok
[14:42:33 EDT(-0400)] <athena> really i'm wondering whether it even makes sense to keep the user agent mapping table or if we should just rely on the browser mapping properties file
[14:42:55 EDT(-0400)] <athena> do you think anyone really wants to set profile-user agent associations on a user-specific basis, or allow users to set those for themselves?
[14:43:47 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> probably not
[14:44:07 EDT(-0400)] <athena> maybe i'll add that thought to the email thread and see if anyone really wants to use that feature
[14:44:08 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> though I could potentially see user selectability
[14:44:18 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[14:44:18 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> like if I'm on an iPhone a phone specific profile is nice
[14:44:23 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but I may want the full UI
[14:44:28 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> since the phone can handle it
[14:44:28 EDT(-0400)] <athena> right
[14:44:32 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i think that does make sense
[14:44:51 EDT(-0400)] <athena> it'd be even nicer to someday have a real iphone theme
[14:45:00 EDT(-0400)] <athena> fluid's working on a mobile version of FSS - looks nice so far
[14:45:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> neat
[16:00:51 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> jquery amazes me
[16:01:28 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> less than 10 lines of JS and no special work in the content to have a list of data where each item as a toggleable div
[16:01:36 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> don't even need id elements anywhere
