Bug in mailto link. (email icon in content link)

Post by rasterblaster » Tue Feb 05, 2008 6:24 pm

I have been wonering why my mail to a friend link looks so crappy, and after looking at the code, I see there is a template that is called that does not exist in the joomla install. (1.5 stable or nightly...)

the screenshot is attached below of what it looks like...

The source of the popup window for the mailto has the line




Now in that directory there is no template.css

Ideas?  Fixes???

On last SVN here the source is


No other CSS is called for.

As Milkyway default is
a:link, a:visited {

text-decoration: none;

font-weight: normal;

}



a:hover {

text-decoration: underline;

font-weight: normal;

}
The Close Window link is pure old style html  ;)

Looks like you are using a template override which does include these css and not default template.
One should use in the component.php override:

baseurl ?>/templates/rhuk_milkyway/css/template.css" type="text/css" />

direction == 'rtl') : ?>
baseurl ?>/templates/rhuk_milkyway/css/template_rtl.css" type="text/css" />
and then add a com_mailto folder in the html folder of the template
copy /components/com_mailto/views/mailto/tmpl/default.php in there and modify to add classes or ids
then add the new css in template.css

FYI, System is a template that exists, it is the default that is called when there is nothing in the other templates or overrides.

It contains the css and layout for lots of the common elements.
