I am switching a town government network to RoundCube. I love your project and I appreciate the great work that you all are doing!
My immediate supervisor is going nuts over the expanding/collapsing folders issue as he has a lot of folders. Sometimes "little" things like this can make or break the implementation of a project. I also think that an HTML Editor in the mail compose form would be great. In the 21st century most users expect these features and one sees HTML Editors everywhere nowadays. Not having one makes RoundCube seem a little behind the times, unfortunately.
Thanks again,
bozhe

The folders i do not know about but the html editor i do
take a look at http://roundcubeforum.net/forum/index.php?topic=378.0
this may help
Thanks

I have to say that upgrading a government network to use a BETA product is probably the worst idea in the world. Sometimes little things like that can lose you your job.
-
Well, I think there was someing with the Collapsing folders some were, but I can't find it, I think it was on the forum before it crashed, as for the HTML Editor you have the code to put it in, but It need to be put into the svn

Hi
I have started some work tohave folders expansind/collapsing
try this if you want http://hypercube.dynalias.org/~naios/rcmaillist.tgz
it only works with javascript and css
-
NaiosKae, it looks good.
Though I receive an error - line 123 -> rcube_list_widget undefined (IE7).
Furthermore the folderlist is showing a little strange. Too much to the left and the + sign seems to have alot of space around it. See attachment

Ok, I have made some more changes.
it 's now a little bit nicer
and can be tested here : https://hypercube.dynalias.org/roundcube/ (log in as demo/demo)
files are still downloadable at http://hypercube.dynalias.org/~naios/rcmaillist.tgz
And now folder are defaultly collapsed
My code is not really clean but can be used by the dev team to be integrated in your way (wich is nicer than mine)
note that I have only tested it with Firefox 1.5 and 2.0 so behavior could be different using other browsers (like IE due to css2 integration I have no windows to test with IE so I let someone else do this part of the job ;))
I will next look to alternate plus and minus symbols but I think that's not the easiest part of the thing
A thing that I have absolutly no idea how to do, is expanding folders when dragging mail over (perhaps am I not clear)
-
What version of RC did you implement this on?
-
I made those changes in rc 0.1 beta 2 tarball
Note that generated code is not fully w3c compliant (in fact it uses an tag before the - tag and that shouldn't be done, but I don't know how to avoid this).
-
It doesn't seem to work with the latest svn. The folders expand and collapse but you can't click on any of the folders to open them.
edit: Looks very nice though. Nice addition to RC.
-
Few reason can be imagined
First one, as I said before, It behavior can be affected from one browser to an other, I can only test with Firefox (2.0 at home and 1.5 at work, both running on debian system).
Second one, func.inc has been modified from beta to SVN version.
I only modify the beta, because, today, the source code of this version is fixed. If the dev team includes it in the project, then it may work in the SVN version, and considered in source code changes.
what behavior do you have with my own server (using demo user?)
Is there the same problem? what browser/system are you running on ?
-
It works on both Firefox2.0 and IE6 using the beta on my server as well as yours. However the plus signs are positioned better with Firefox2.0.
-
Good update - I would recommend though to try and incorporate the code in the latest SVN. this would avoid later retesting. (
PS. I tried diffing against SVN 445 - but the differences are vast. I dont know what was added/changed for these folder actions)
My feedback (also see attachment - in IE7)
- Folders are still aligned to far to the left, or at least different from my own RC
- Plus sign doesnt turn into a minus (-) when expanded
- Sub - sub folders are not recognizable as such and treated (in view) as folders under demo
- What happens when the subfolder list is so large that it will not be viewable anymore in the left window?
example.
+ folder 1
+ folder 2
+ folder 2.1
+ folder 2.1.1
+ folder 2.2
instead of
+ folder 1
+ folder 2
+ folder 2.1
+ folder 2.1.1
+ folder 2.2
[/list]
-
As I said before, The plus placement problem is due to css2 interpretaion with browsers, I can't test with IE so I can't correct this. If someone could, it would be a nice Idea.
To make this fully w3c compliant, we have to move the Anchor tag inside the list item tag and force placement with css in the outside left of the list Item (don't now if it will work, I will try at a later time)
plus/minux toggle, I 'll try to make it later cause I don't know if background images defined in css are accessible in javascript and if it is a writable object.
What happens when the subfolder list is so large that it will not be viewable anymore in the left window?
I'm not sure but it should not affect the default behavior (in FF2.0) because when placing the plus symbol, css move the Li margin on the left to put it back in the right place.

please find screenie of test results in opera
-
changes appears in bold text here:
** cutted due to global modification, code was extremly boggy so don't use it anymore **
try http://hypercube.dynalias.org/~naios/rcmaillist.tgz which is replace at each change.
I'll tell you in this topic for any change
modification are prefix by comment like "addition to implement folders expanding/collapsing"
or some thing like this
-
new version available, should be a better one
could you please try it with your different browser
Changes have been applied to my demo site
-
Browser = IE7
-
Ok, thanks, we're now approaching the result we want.
I don't know how to correct this on IE, perhaps someone could help
source code on the top of the page is not the good one
(but is now commented look for text addition) and is now w3c compliant
see next what it looks like in FF1.5
-
Looks better - in Opera it looks better now too.
Seen both attachments for OPERA and IE7.
OPERA - see strange select of a mailbox
IE7 looks boggy - due to spaces, 's etc... I dont know what the CSS \* tag is for IE7
-

Do you have a link for the updated code. Does the code at the top of this page work on svn? Thanks
-
link is http://hypercube.dynalias.org/~naios/rcmaillist.tgz
I update the tarball for every change
I haven't tested for SVN version but you can (just be sur to backup the 2 files)
Opera behavior seems to be the same as FF1.5, was it different in the original version ?
does anyone know the hooks I need for IE7 ?
(Ok, I have installed putty on my game machine so I don't have to reboot the system to make tests on IE7)

hmmmm found something little bad.
When opening a message for reading - the folderlist is still there (should be upload section). It also creates errors as it is referencing mail list items - that dont exist now
-
I'm sorry but I don't uderstand what you mean (probably due to a wrong translation). Do you have a sample?
EDIT:
If errors you talk about are that folders mentionned in the cron mail are not shown in the maillist, it's not an error, this mail just indicates that imap tree is regenerated each hours.
Maildir is the root of the user IMAP box corresponding to INBOX
folders like .demo.test.sub2 are user folders in imap box
cur, tmp, courierimapacl,maildirfolder,courierimapkeywords,new,courierimapuiddb are here for the server to administrate the imap folder.
-
See attachment - normally the folderbox is not there. Otherwise see RC demo on site
-
I always had the folder tree, even before I made any changes... perhaps different in the svn version
EDIt:
look at this http://www.roundcube.net/?p=screens
-
Hey Naio, this is a really cool feature. Right now I have to scroll up and down the folder box to see all my folders. It would be nice to have this feature working in the svn, since the svn also has some really nice features that the beta doesn't. I have been trying to get this work on the svn and I am not having much luck. If you get a chance can you look at making this work on the svn? Thanks
-
I'll try, no promise on the result but I'll try
EDIT 1 :
Ok, its done for svn trunk (still have IE troubleshooting)
look at http://hypercube.dynalias.org/roundcube-svnhttps://hypercube.dynalias.org/roundcube-svn log in as demo/demo
EDIT 2 : les codes sources respectifs sont disponibles dans la section downloads de sources codes are available in download section http://hypercube.dynalias.org

The link doesn't work and I don't understand what your saying on EDIT 2 as I only speak english
-
Sorry for speaking french (english is not really natural for me ::) and sometimes, I'm quiet away)
I gave you a wrong link, roundcube is in the https area so https://hypercube.dynalias.org/roundcube-svn or use communication link on the http main page
Edit: You're right there are some good enhancement in the svn version. Users at work will enjoy the preview pane.
Edit 2 : svn version 445
-
Works like a charm... Very nice Thanks :D
-
You're welcome
-
Looks good - also nice to see it in the SVN
See attachment for IE7 - still something wrong here. Wonder if we have a CSS expert that can help out?
Furthermore. The mailbox listing stays there when I open a message to view. This is not normal behavior. Although I see it on the regular demo too. Hmm maybe log a new issue
-
That was the default behavior of the svn version
Could someone test and post a result using opera
-
The svn Looks good in Opera. How do you make and post a print screen?
-
Did you see the IE7 attachment - and the issue? (see post above)
ps. Screen cap can be best made with zapgrab -> http://masterzap.is-a-geek.com/~zap/zapgrab.html then paste in empty image (or some systems -> to desktop and image is created)
ps. YOur site : look at http://hypercube.dynalias.org/roundcube-svn log in as demo/demo
seems to be down
-
No it's not down, As I've said in a previous post, I made a mistake adress is https://hypercube.dynalias.org/roundcube-svn/
-

Figured out how to do a screen print. Little program called gadwin http://www.gadwin.com/printscreen/
Here is a shot of it in Opera. Looks pretty sweet
-
Cool It works well. Just have to find how to make it works with IE
-
Hi all,
I experienced the same behaviour with Firefox 2.0, I just deleted cookie and so on and after that all works fine !! ;-) I don't think it could be help you for IE !!
I have a request for you, when you jump from the email tab' to the Address book' tab for example, and after that come back to the emails' tab, all folders come back collapsed !! There is a possiblity to avoid this ??
Thx and congratulation for you work !
Limubay
-
There are some posiblities to do this.
But that needs a storage of each node status, this I'm fear it could be very long for long lists of folders (about 30 for me at work : 15 in Inbox and 15 in sent-mail).
You can try, I won't for the moment (I won't have lot of time in the following weeks)
-
Hi every body, I tried with the new svn trunk. It still works (files concerned haven't been changed)
May it be integrated in the svn version ?
-
Hello,
this is probably a relatively easy thing to change, but is there a way to remember the expanded/collapsed state when changing pages or logging in/out?
thanks,
pat.
-
Hi I don't have any time for the moment, I'll take a look later even if I can't say when...
I'm sorry to inform you that due to excessive hack tries on the demo user on my web site, this one as been volontary deleted, so you won't be able to try it anymore there.
-
If you look on the general discussion of svn version, someone has done it.
The way he made it is nicer than mine, I can only suggest you to use his one.
