Good thing with js is that we can probably get the timezone from the browser which makes more sense, but there would still be quite some work to adapt the font size to each language and adapt to non-left to right languages too Julien On Thu, Jul 18, 2013 at 2:41 PM, Frederic Muller - DFF < fred(a)digitalfreedomfoundation.org> wrote: > Hi and thanks for joining the explanations. > > Unfortunately asking SFD teams promoters to insert JavaScript into their > web pages and select the right time zone seems a bit complicated.

Re: [SFD-discuss] SFD 2013 countdown

by Frederic Muller - DFF

Hi and thanks for joining the explanations. Unfortunately asking SFD teams promoters to insert JavaScript into their web pages and select the right time zone seems a bit complicated. We want something that is the easiest possible to insert and live little chance for mistakes. I was actually thinking it was the same scripting idea we tried in the past to combine the SVG and some text files to generate the PNGs. Now we could definitely have both options available and people chose what works best for them (that doesn't mean I can do options number 2 though).

Re: [SFD-discuss] SFD 2013 countdown

Hello All I think what Alexandro is suggesting is that we create a javascript that people would insert in their webpage along with the background of the countdown, in svg format. Then we would have a <text> in the svg that would be left blank and whose content would be controlled by javascript using getElementByID or something similar.

Re: [SFD-discuss] SFD 2013 countdown

Answers below. I remove much of the email but the idea I think is more than 1 year old. I remember someone trying with the Inkscape scripting like 2 years ago at least and we discussed about the issues to finally give up. But I think it was just to automate the making of 100+ png images. So apparently I'm still confused about your proposal.

That wasn't me. The OSM layer was added by an Italian contributor (we asked for someone to help). No one at the SFI board at the time was able to do the job...which is why we were using Google maps initially. As you see we just put the pieces together (while doing was we were able to do). Thanks.

Re: [SFD-discuss] SFD 2013 countdown

by Frederic Muller - DFF

This looks like a lot of research on my end for the time being and I don't specially have any issue with the current solution. While I'm not saying we won't do it giving me links to read and "advice" will definitely greatly reduce the chances of it happening. Note that we're looking for something easy to implement on the user's side. An image seems quite easy to do and has been working so far for us and for other organizations. In fact we were able to launch the countdown with 10 languages this year (as we didn't redo the graphics... that's a minus) and we're already at 12. I have been discussing with other board members and one suggested to use an iframe. Maybe that would match your suggestion? I hope you understand my perspective. I'm just a volunteer with limited knowledge and a lot of things to do. Of course if anyone is willing to spend time and showing us something that works and that we can easily deploy please go ahead. I'll do everything I can to support it within my abilities. Thanks.

Re: [SFD-discuss] SFD 2013 countdown

by Alexandro Colorado

Is really very simple, Javascript has the capabilities of locating the OS day and number so you can just have a simple script giving the ammount of days left. H ere is a simple example on working the Javascript code with inkscape: http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/2012/07/03/wireframing-inkscape-javascript/ If you read the last section, you will see where it triggers actions by behaviours (element.style.fill = 'red'.) for te SVG style, and ( window.location='contact.svg') for the action. And a snippet of code for the 'days left': http://www.digioz.com/downloads/javascript/daysleft.html Remember embeded SVG work the same way HTML could work so you can do this serverside as well using PHP, Python or whatever get's interpret or spit out. If you are worried of browser incompatibilities there is a library that takes care of that: http://code.google.com/p/svgweb/ On Wed, Jul 17, 2013 at 12:41 AM, Frederic Muller - DFF < fred(a)digitalfreedomfoundation.org> wrote: > Thanks for your help but this looks way above my skills.

Re: [SFD-discuss] SFD 2013 countdown

by Frederic Muller - DFF

Thanks for your help but this looks way above my skills. Could you be kind enough to detail how we can use the Inkscape graphics without text and generate those 102 images with the script? Note as well that different languages have different positioning of things, but I guess we can have 2/3 master templates and then just ask for translations. Thanks.
