Roundup Tracker

Hi all,

I was getting bored by the space consuming red and green message bars in top of the screens (sorry Richard), therefor I made a small change to the code that displays those messages. Now there won't be any message in the HTML anymore, but an pop-up window will show the message.

For those interested, these are the required changes: In html/page.html I change this block::

into (sorry about the HTML-escaping)::

In 'extensions' add the file 'format_message.py' with::

You can easy choose when the alert window should pop-up, by placing the HTML part at an other location in the icing-macro in html/page.html. If you put it at the top, the alert window will pop-up first and after closing it, the HTML page appears. If you place it at the bottom, the HTML page appears first and when ready drawing it, the alert window will appear.

It's only :( that there's no way to change the icon in the alert window to make a clear difference between ok messages and error messages, but you might consider leaving the red block there in case of an error message. So only an alert window showing the ok message, but an alert and a red message block showing the error message (to be honest, that is how I implemented it in our tracker).
