Bug#611717: alioth.debian.org: Improper quoting on request-to-join-project-form

Package: www.debian.org

Hi folks,

I hope this is the right place for this report. If not, feel free to
whack me over the head and tell me where to go instead :-)

I've just submitted a request to join a project on Alioth [1]. In the
comment I typed there, I've used a few single quotes. After pressing
submit, the request was correctly submitted (according to the message
shown). Additionally, the comment I typed was shown in the textarea
again, but this time all single quotes were preceded by a backslash.

This looks like some overzealous escaping somewhere (magic_quotes_gpc
perhaps?). It's probably harmless, but it might be an indication that
there is some underlying, more serious problem. (In fact, looking at the
FusionForge source code, it seems there is no explicit escaping in
request.php, so it might very well be that magic_quotes is indeed turned
on. There is also a possibly relevant bug report [1], which seems to be
fixed in the wrong way IMHO).

Gr.

Matthijs

Hi,

I haven't been very active with web site development, just keeping up
old translations to Finnish occasionally.

Where should bugs in new web site reported? At the page
http://www.deb.at/distrib/ one phrase "Quick Links" is missing
translation in my language. (In addition there seems to be extra dots
after file names, is this intentional?) Was there some information
posted here how translators can make sure that new layout works best in
all languages?

BTW, this new layout looks good, happy to see the progress here

 Which is also a very important task. :)

 Either here on the list or if you are familiar with/using IRC, on
#debian-www on irc.debian.org.

 Thanks, now we just need to get these final bits fixed to have as
little bugs as possible for the upcoming weekend!

 Enjoy!

Thanks for your constructive whack, I should probably have found that

same package).

I'll go bug the right people now.

www.debian.org: Add helper button on footer for design-flaws

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

with the new website design coming up, we might break some pages quite
hard.  Thus i would like to suggest to have a button on the footer of
each page with says something like "Found problem with the layout of
this page, click here".

Not sure yet what to do with this button, my idea would be to just mail
this to a specified address, and have someone watching the incoming mail
flood. Other idea would be to write a flat file somewhere.

Nevertheless, i think we will need the following information:

* Remote IP (yes, we want that, so we can find out if it might be a
  problem with the www-mirror we use, you never know...)
* page
* date + time
* User-Agent (it might be displaying problems with a specific UA).

I would suggest to limit this to four weeks, we should ne able to find
most of the fall-out of the redesign switch within that time frame.

Cheers,
Martin

This is an *official* Debian address, correctly it should be

These are not, sorry.  And they are not the same as the link above.

Thx, bye,
