The content of the amounts for the fundraiser can be kept in the HTML
rather than the progress bar Javscript code.
I suspect at some point I should keep this data in the Django database
and extract it from there as dynamic content.
Sidebar currently gets bottom cut off when your browser height is too
small. This URL seems to indicate a fix. I don't have time to do it
now, but wanted to save it as a note to do later.
This image now is displayed with the same background and to the left of
the "Big News". I spent extensive time researching how best to present
a larger <div> with the grey background and have the image properly
scale beside it. Ultimately, I couldn't find a better way than this,
and this is hardly optimal.
For example, I looked into wrapping the whole thing in a div, with two
div's inside, and applying various CSS to each to get the image to
properly stay right next to the text and scale in size when resizing of
media made paragraph longer. This generated even more problems, so I
went with the simpler solution herein, which probably isn't correct and
may well do odd things on different types of media.
An anonymous donor is matching up to $5k at 2-to-1 for supporter
donations. Therefore, update the page to include a progress bar for
this, and add notes about it in various places.
Since the error messages have important information, and since the
Javascript code is the only "enforcer" of the minimum donation, the
errors really should be displayed by default if the browser is not
Javascript-capable. This change does that, but also toggles the state
back so that errors are not shown until needed in Javascript-capable
browsers.
I believe this still fits graceful degradation, since browsers without
Javascript and CSS were already showing the errors anyway, so now the
only real change is that everyone sees the errors by default.
It *might* make sense to not show the errors in red in non-Javascript
browsers (i.e., make the default CSS color black for the form-error-show
class, and then change it to red in the Javascript). I didn't make that
so, because it's not clear to me that's right, and we *do* want to draw
attention to the errors lest people become a supporter below the
minimum (which has happened once already -- that precipitated this
change).
I'm still annoyed that PayPal doesn't provide a "minimum but no maximum"
variable donation box of its own, which would solve this problem
outright.
