Bug#398332: www.debian.org: QA pages claim to be W3C-clean but are not

[Vincent Fourmond]

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: minor


  Hello !

  At the bottom of the QA pages, such as 

http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=vincent.fourmond%409online.fr&comaint=yes

there are icons stating that the pages are valid HTML 4.0, but the page linked 
to them shows 
the contrary. From what I understand, it should be fairly easy to fix.

  Cheers, and keep on the great job !

Vincent Fourmond

They look so totally different form the current form - they probably
won't reach many seconds.

I believ it would be more helpful to determine the parts on the
current layout that need improvement and develop a better layout for
these instead of overhauling the entire start page.

Also, please keep in mind that the start page is only one page and
that there are several more pages with a quite different look.

Joey

I would like to make two small improvements, which - at least to me -
would make the website a lot more beautiful:

body {
  font-size: 13px;
}

This will provide a smaller default font, it can still be enlarged
with Ctrl-+ (or was it Shift-+?) in IceWeasel.

a:link {
  text-decoration: none;
  cursor: pointer;
}
a:visited {
  text-decoration: none;
  cursor: pointer;
}

This will remove the underline for links.

Another improvement, especially for languages with a lot text, would
be to change "About Debian" on the front top menu into just "About".

Thanks for considering this.

Regards,

Joey

I don't think we should change the default font size at all - why not
use whatever the user has selected?

If you like a smaller font, then why don't you set one in your browser?
Also, forcing a font size means that everyone who has increased their
size (for example because of an impaired vision) will have problems.

> This will remove the underline for links.

Again, that is a setting in all browsers I am aware of (and the first
thing I disable). We shouldn't mess with the user's expectations.

That, however, sounds like a good idea. :-)

I agree! Or, if it cannot be avoided at all, at least change the font size 
to 90% (or whatever), not to a fixed point size. For example, this may make 
sense for certain fonts (e.g. Verdana) which look much bigger than others 
at identical font sizes.

Cheers,

  Richard

Hmm.  I thought I did that.  Checking again revealed that it was
set to a horrible size indeed.  *shrug*

Wow.  This can indeed be set at least in iceweasel.  I'm really impressed.
When I last tried to set useful preferences in a graphical browser (probably
some years ago) this wasn't possible (or I have simply been blind).

Hmm.  One out of three is not too bad. :)

packages.d.o indeed has some problems recently which I'm working on.

But something in your report above doesn't seem to make sense. According
to you the version in testing is greater than the version in unstable :)

Hmm, apart from that the page cleary needs a statement where to report
bugs to :)

Underlining of links is the first thing I ever changed in a browser,
and that was in Netscape 1.2N back in 1995 or so. So the option has
been a standard setting in graphical browsers for at least a decade...
