[13:22:01 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> hm

[13:22:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> that was my thought
[13:22:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I don't think layout fragments contribute to the theme parameters at all
[13:22:35 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> you'll likely have multiple fragments
[13:22:50 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> so it wouldn't necessarily make sense to assume the theme of one of the fragments

[13:51:18 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> create an intro page with the login, etc..
[13:51:35 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> you can always just login as the guest user and set that user's theme
[13:52:19 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I don't think the guest user has a password set by default so you would need to set one first:
[13:52:35 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> run 'ant md5passwd -Dusername=guest' in the uPortal-src directory
[13:52:47 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> that should let you change the guest user's password
[13:53:13 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> you can log in as the guest user and change the skin
[13:53:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> though you'll likely need to restart uportal after doing that to see the changes since the guest layout is cached
[13:54:18 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> ill do that in a sec

[15:34:11 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> my bad
[15:34:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> setting the password just allows you to log in as the guest user
[15:34:27 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> not used to this stuff yet ... when i do webdev/design everything is always live
[15:34:34 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist>
[15:34:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah, it would be nice to have a way to clear the guest ui cache .... eventually
[15:35:14 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> i did login and change the theme... didnt restart uportal though
[15:35:33 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> it worked
[15:35:35 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> you rock =D
[15:35:59 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> heh, glad I could help
[15:36:02 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> ya
[15:36:08 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> I though guest-lo owned that
[15:36:15 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> :/
[15:36:24 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so all guests to the portal are the 'guest' user
[15:36:31 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> -lo accounts are fragment owners
[15:36:45 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the guest-lo fragment is targeted just to the guest user
[15:36:51 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> that's what it looks like from reading the logged out page "whence came this tab?"
[15:37:03 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ah yeah, that would make sense
[15:37:09 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> we need a big dictionary of terms
[15:37:13 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> since that tab game from guest-lo
[15:37:13 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> hehe
[15:37:28 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but the overall layout comes from the actual user
[15:37:43 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> all these layers of abstraction
[15:40:28 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> hehe
[15:41:04 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and hopefully as you work with it these things are making more and not less sense
[15:41:22 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> yup... it's starting to make more sense as we go
[15:41:49 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> well... not sure if "sense" is the right word... maybe "they're becoming more.... familiar"
[15:41:51 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> for local development there are some settings in portal.properties to turn off a bunch of the caching
[15:41:59 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> ya
[15:42:01 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> I'll do that
[15:42:10 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I don't think you can disable the guest layout caching though :/
[15:42:26 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> just search in that file for the word cache, hopefully the properties are self explanitory
[15:42:50 EDT(-0400)] <levifig> ya
[15:42:52 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> though you will need to turn them back on before letting more than one or two people on the system simultaneously or performance will be terrible
[15:46:46 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> athena7: does jquery have a 'compressed' distribution?
[15:47:03 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i think we're currently using the minified one
[15:47:24 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ok ... yeah it looks like the main js is, but all the ui. ones aren't
[15:47:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'm watching in firebug at page sizes
[15:47:33 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yeah
[15:47:42 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'm not sure if the ui libs are available yet in compressed form
[15:47:45 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> let me look
[15:47:54 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> for the main distribution, there is a packed version
[15:48:09 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> but they recommend the minified version for production deployments
[15:48:22 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> says "The packed version requires non-trivial client-side processing time to uncompress the code."
[15:48:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> for the student welcome tab html=49K, CSS=47K, JS=306K, img=471K
[15:48:45 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ah
[15:48:55 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah so we probably don't want that
[15:49:15 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I wonder if there is a servlet filter that will set the cache headers for all of the js and css
[15:49:16 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> wonder when they're going to release the 1.5 ui package
[15:49:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> still in beta, which may be why it isn't compressed
[15:50:12 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ah
[15:52:13 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> it'd be really pretty cool if the uportal deployment magically minified javascript
[15:52:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist>
[15:52:53 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'm thinking it, in theory, would be possible for a filter to set some of the cache control and not-modified headers for the js and css files
[15:55:07 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yeah, we'd just need to make sure that it doesn't prevent users from getting updates when we do actually change things
[15:55:25 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[15:58:15 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> by the way, i tried scott's suggestion for the cas stuff and it didn't seem to make a difference
[15:58:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> :/
[15:58:35 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> is there anyone that knows cas well that might be able to take a look at it?
[15:58:40 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> well he lurks on the IRC logs so we'll see if he has any other suggestions
[15:58:44 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok
[15:59:01 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i really don't know any of that code, so it's not something i'm going to be able to debug quickly
[15:59:58 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> no problem, I'll poke him or andrew about it as time permits
[16:00:06 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> sounds great
[16:00:20 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'm checking out the jquery trunk now to see if they've got a minifying build script in there
[16:00:24 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> oh so all those .dict files in the framework ... they appear to just be reference files for the corresponding localized xsl files
[16:04:10 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ah
[16:04:26 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and the i18n data.xml file is where the bad channel titles were coming from
[16:04:41 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so those have all be reduced to just a commented out example with instructions
[16:04:50 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> since no one was maintaining the data anyways :/
[16:04:55 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> sounds good to me
[16:11:37 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i found the minifier jquery uses
[16:11:41 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> so i'll try it out on the ui libs
[16:11:51 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> awesome, thanks
[16:12:01 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yep
[16:12:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'm going to look into a simple Fitler impl that implements last-modified support
[16:12:14 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> cool
[16:12:23 EDT(-0400)] <athena7>
[16:15:12 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> if it does work, i could make minified versions of the uportal js
[16:15:22 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> we'd just need to make it really clear how to re-pack them if you make changes
[16:16:05 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[16:16:17 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I wonder if there is a jsmin maven plugin ....
[16:16:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> that'd be neat
[16:16:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> then it could be a compile/package time thing
[16:16:33 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yeah
[16:16:39 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> that's what i'd been thinking previously
[16:17:37 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> although there's a value to being sure we're using what jquery uses
[16:17:49 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> since their code is likely to be compatible with that compressor
[16:18:01 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> true, do you know what compressor they use?
[16:18:05 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yes, found it
[16:18:15 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> they recommend this: http://dean.edwards.name/packer/
[16:18:25 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> http://docs.jquery.com/Frequently_Asked_Questions#How_do_I_compress_my_code.3F
[16:20:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> http://mojo.codehaus.org/javascript-maven-tools/
[16:22:11 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> wonder what it uses
[16:22:27 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> looks like you have the option of jsmin or dojo shrinksafe
[16:22:34 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ah ok
[16:22:44 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> can you set it to only compress certain files?
[16:23:50 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I think so ...
[16:24:03 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> there is http://ossi.mobilvox.com/maven-js-plugin too
[16:24:08 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but they don't say what they use
[16:24:13 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> though their site is better
[16:24:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ah
[16:28:17 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i suppose we don't really need to pack the jquery stuff on build
[16:28:20 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> since it won't change
[16:28:27 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> but maybe worth thinking about for the up stuff?
[16:28:30 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[16:28:39 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> depends how big it is, i guess
[16:28:58 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> making it object-oriented and not ridiculous does add some lines
[16:29:23 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'd probably be more inclined to comment heavily if we were minifying it
[16:29:38 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'll make some more jira issues for 3.0-future about this
[16:29:42 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist>
[16:29:59 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> right now it looks like uportal specific js totals abou 28K
[16:30:12 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> not including the 18K for bookmarks
[16:30:29 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok
[16:30:42 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yeah i have to admit i was a little surprised how much javascript there was for the bookmarks portlet
[16:31:09 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[16:31:14 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it probably isn't that well written
[16:31:27 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> considering it was my first foray in JS
[16:31:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but it doesn't use any framework either
[16:31:49 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> or I don't think it does at least
[16:31:50 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> right, i think the second point is a lot of it
[16:31:54 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> it doesn't
[16:32:03 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> it could be cut down a ton by using jquery or whatever
[16:32:08 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I can't wait until jsr-286
[16:32:17 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> when portlets can include things in the <head> of the page
[16:32:18 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i've actually replaced a few of the icons with things from famfam
[16:32:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yeah
[16:33:34 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok, how much was the total javascript for you unpacked?
[16:34:20 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the welcome tab of the admin user has 306K of js
[16:34:26 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok
[16:34:30 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> this cut it down to 251
[16:34:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah, not a lot
[16:34:42 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i haven't removed all the copyright stuff at the top of the files
[16:34:50 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> which i guess maybe we could move to a license file
[16:34:52 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I think fixing tomcat's etag/last-modified support would be better
[16:35:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I found a couple blogs about tomcat config for it
[16:35:10 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> oh cool
[16:35:21 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> by default it looks like tomcat ignores etags and last-modified headers
[16:35:27 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so the browser re-loads it every request
[16:35:30 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> interesting
[16:35:41 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i've definitely seen my browser use cached versions
[16:35:44 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> http://blog.bcarlso.net/articles/2007/10/19/tomcat-weak-etags-and-javascript-css-caching
[16:36:00 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> noticeable when i make changes to the javascript and then the page is broken because i haven't picked up the change
[16:36:50 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[16:37:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> browsing around a bit the highest # from firebug for cached content use is 18 of 306
[16:37:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and I think that is all the google search JS
[16:37:50 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yeah
[16:37:54 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> so if we implement this
[16:38:08 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> do all modern browsers correctly respect the modified headers?
[16:38:52 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah, and I'm not sure I want to actually set the Cache-Control headers, those are more powerful but a bit more dangerous
[16:39:02 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> just getting last-modified/etag support would be good
[16:39:07 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> sounds good to me
[16:39:14 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> since tomcat/uportal can easily see the last-modified date of the file
[16:39:23 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> so potentially, after the first use, portal usage should be snappier?
[16:39:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[16:39:31 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> that would be the hope
[16:39:47 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and eventually someone could look at setting the Cache-Control header
[16:39:53 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> given the way users would be expected to use a portal, concentrating on subsequent page load times sounds like a good strategy
[16:39:58 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the problem is there to really use it correctly is up the to the institution
[16:40:09 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yeah
[16:40:23 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'd be fine with starting with the last-modified and seeing how things look
[16:42:41 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> sounds like they're targeting april/may release for jquery ui 1.5
[16:42:48 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> too bad it's not a little earlier
[16:43:00 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> but hopefully we can add in the real version for the next minor up3 release
[16:43:11 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yup
[16:57:43 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> so do you know if "move this channel to another tab" ever existed as a features?
[16:57:46 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> er, feature
[16:57:59 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I don't think it did
[16:58:00 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i just looked at yale's 2.6 instance and i don't see it there either
[16:58:08 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> maybe that was a rutger's mod, dunno
[16:58:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'd really like if we could set that up eventually for drag and drop
[16:58:27 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> be really nice
[16:58:35 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[16:58:48 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> peter managed it in the sandbox up3 code
[16:58:53 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ahh
[16:58:58 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i had it working with dojo 1.0
[16:59:18 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> it's not easily achievable with the interface.js library at the moment
[16:59:43 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> would involve a lot of custom coding, which didn't really seem to make sense since interface.js is being deprecated and everything will move to jquery ui
[17:00:03 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'm hoping that once that's released, enough of the bugs will be fixed that it'll make sense to implement it with their drag and drop
[17:00:37 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> at the moment though, their sortable component has a bug which makes it the case that if you drag all channels out of a column, you can't put any back in
[17:00:48 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i deemed that unacceptable
[17:01:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ah yeah
[17:01:10 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> not so functional
[17:01:14 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> no
[17:01:25 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> but they've made a lot of changes since the 1.5 beta
[17:01:42 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'll also be happy when we can grey out the background page when a dialog box is up
[17:01:48 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> that doesn't seem to work right either right now
[17:02:35 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ok
[17:02:41 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i should probably take off
[17:02:54 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ok, have a good one!
[17:02:57 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> you too
