[sIFR3-dev] Wiki and the first code

[Mark Wubben]

Hey all,

During my winter holiday I've been working fulltime, hence the slow  
pace of development. However, the break is over, and I'm back at  
university (which takes a whole lot less time than work). Past week  
I've spend on updating the wiki server, you can see the new wiki at  
<http://wiki.novemberborn.net/sifr>. It's been up for about a day now  
and it's certainly a lot faster (and, it'd seem, more stable) than  
the previous version. Let's hope it holds up.

Anyway, today I started coding for real. First step: browser  
detection. If you go to <http://dev.novemberborn.net/sifr3/svn/test/ 
unit/ua/> you'll see a number of tests. I'd really appreciate it if  
you could run as many as possible. The tests are in the HTML files,  
starting with the browser/os/flash which will be tested. The numbers  
indicate versions, "--" means *less than*, "version-version" means  
*between* and "++" means *equal to or greater than*. So if you want  
to test in Safari 1.2, you'll open "safari1.3--.html". If you want to  
test in Safari 1.3 or 2.0, you open "safari1.3++.html".

Please note that the tests should only succeed in the browser  
versions they were designed for. You can find the Gecko version by  
opening the "about" section in the browser and looking for a number  
in the form of "yearmonthday". Webkit 124 corresponds to Safari 1.2,  
Webkit 175 to 1.3. The Konqueror tests  need improvement, please let   
me know if you have access to a Konqueror browser.

That's it for now, onwards with coding for me! Let me know how the  
tests work out!
