Expand/collapse in internal linking

Description

We should use our user settings API to have a save-state expand/collapse the internal linking part of the links dialog.

This will require a small arrow sprite and some light JS to our API.

Jane wanted this for 3.1, but I don't see it happening unless someone finds time this week.

Attaching my own patch as well, something I forgot to do (which I wrote for some JS practice). Has some minor todo for sliding, and also has no UI/images toggle, just a dummy link.

My incomplete version.

Can someone try whipping up some CSS around this?

#12 follow-up: @nacin
14 years ago

I want to change this string, "Link to Content on this Site", because it looks ridiculous with "C" and "S". The easy option is "Link to content on this site". Do we want to return the word "existing"? It was previously "link to existing site content" before we added the expand/collapse.

So, one of these:

  • "Link to content on this site"
  • "Link to existing content on this site"
  • "Link to existing site content"

Would be nice if you could change the sprite, so that the images are vertical oriented.

Replying to nacin:

  • Or link to existing content

Sure... just rotate the image 90 degrees in either direction ;)

#17 @nacin

We're also dropping the colon in 'Enter the destination URL' for consistency.

The link around "Or link to existing content" should be dropped. It should still be clickable, but it should be the collapsed arrow inviting a click. I imagine it will be easier to drop the <a> and make the div (or a span the width of the text) clickable, rather than styling the <a> to match body text in terms of color and no underline.

what's left: final browser testing down to IE6, and checking long title handling.

#27 @demetris
14 years ago

I seems to me we have the expand/collapse arrows wrong.

I think the intuitive and common pattern for this case is:

Downwards arrow for showing

Upwards arrow for hiding

Patch forthcoming upon request.
