Just made major revisions to Greymatter
Things seem to be working normally now except one of the client-side editing tools has broken. Considering all that I've done, this is surprisingly good news.
Things I've changed:
- Fixed the URL strings of the Karma function so that they parse as kosher markup in W3C validators
- Removed most of the presentational markup in the Greymatter forms. A needlessly nitpicking change for sure, but it makes the script easier for me to read. I knocked off more than 60 KB this way. It makes the script easier to upload and probably makes it run faster too.
- Increased the functionality of the JavaScript used in the editing function
- Made certain that all markup that is generated is lowercase.
Things planned in future:
- More encapsulation and modularization. For example, putting all the JavaScript in separate files referenced from Greymatter.
- Tightening security.
- Correcting other minor markup errors generated. For example the use of " instead of ".
