Comments on: S5 1.1rc1 http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/05/30/s5-11rc1/ Things that Eric A. Meyer, CSS expert, writes about on his personal Web site; it's largely Web standards and Web technology, but also various bits of culture, politics, personal observations, and other miscellaneous stuff Thu, 24 May 2012 19:21:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Denn http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/05/30/s5-11rc1/#comment-11405 Denn Thu, 29 Dec 2005 05:47:27 +0000 http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/05/30/s5-11rc1/#comment-11405 Actually, I agree with you. The changes in structure between 1.0 and 1.1 probably cooled some enthusiasm there---which is another reason to get this thing fixed and finalized, so people can use it and theme it and what-have-you.

And if we did create more S5 themes where would we post them? Do we send you a link to them to be bundled in the download or what?

It has always worked. You know this because the computer tells you so. The computer is your friend. On a totally unrelated note, ever notice that when you're trying to reconcile two versions of a site, something inevitably gets missed? <code><whistle type="nonchalant" /></code> The 1.1rc1 link works.

I would take a look at the key handling code, but the 1.1rc1 zip link seems to be dead. Anyone else noticing this?

Are you asking to have the JS add a class to the 'body', or to remove it? A concrete example of what should happen, and how it would be useful, would help me a lot.

Looking at the code makes it look like this would be a trivial change and would be helpful IMHO.
