[TYPO3-core] RFC #16032: Overwork tree frame design

[Ernesto Baschny [cron IT]]

Hi Steffen,

+1 by reading and testing (FF 3.6, Chrome 7, IE8).

The change in typo3/class.db_list.inc: I am not sure if this is related
to your modifications?


For IE8, there is no drop shadow (see attachment), but I guess this is
by design, since it uses CSS3's box-shadow. Maybe we would need some
visual separation on IE6-IE8 since it looks very odd without *any*
separation at all?

Adding these old-school styles makes at least the shadow "appear" on
IE6-8 again, but in the page tree only in the content area:

#typo3-navigationContainer {
        background:
url("../../images/backgrounds/module-menu-right.gif") repeat-y scroll
right top #DDDDDD !important;
}
#typo3-pagetree #typo3-docbody,
#typo3-alt-file-navframe-php #typo3-docbody {
        background:
url("../../images/backgrounds/module-menu-right.gif") repeat-y scroll
right top #ebebeb !important;
}

I guess this has to be tackled separately. We currently only have a
"ie6.css" switch, maybe we need a "non-css3.css" switch to add graceful
fallbacks for all non-css3 compatible browsers (IE6..IE8)?


Cheers,
Ernesto
