GUI questions on TV Guide & search results

[FirstTeamOPS]

I'm not sure if this is expected behavior or not but I can't seem to figure it out. In the screen shot I have three programs circled. Each one does not have lines separating the programs. It's also the same for channels 12, 13, and 18 in that screen shot. I've noticed this the past few builds. It doesn't matter what channel it is and it doesn't matter what skin is used. On channels 14 & 19, there is a line separating the programs shown.

Search Results: noting this thread about a similar issue, the pre & post paddings in the search results show zero. I have them set to 1 minute in the config app.

I use the table results when searching. Can you put a line separating each result? It's not a big issue when I'm using a 1024X768 screen but when using a 1600X1200 LCD, I can't really tell if I'm checking the box for the show time I want. See second screen shot.

Thanks!

Do the same search in FireFox....my guess is you will see the lines....one of those small issues that appears from time to time with IE.

So when you click on the detail view of the scheduled or recording show you do not see the pre/posting when you select the option to update end times?

Again....try it in FireFox.....the lines will be there. I know this was intermitent in IE6. I haven't switched to IE7 (still to many bugs and performance issues) so I don't know if it is more prevelent with IE7. Bottom line is that the code is compliant and the browser rendering is not......

Both of those appeared in FF. That sucks. Can't use FF at work. Oh well. Thanks though.

No, the update recording time (pending recording) and the program details (TV Guide) are fine. On the "Advanced Episode Search Results" screen the pre & post paddings are set to 0.

Yep....that's because I didn't add the fix on that screen when I did the details screen.....I will update this with the next release....thanks.

Well... you *do* get quite a bunch of warnings... *hint, hint, nudge, nudge* Have you tried the FF plugin HTML tidy? Really nice to find html problems. Note: I'm not saying you should fix them. I think you've done a kick ass job with the EWA. But if you *do* want help with html problems, tidy html is really nice.

If I have time...some of the generation comes from the .net framework itself so I can't help that.

I am working on (an hopefully will be able to complete) moving the whole interface to be Flow/CSS based rather than fixed/table based.

Cool. That's what we're trying to do at work, too. Good luck
