updated documentation to include a regret

Created application documentation with rake appdoc

Added ability to delete unused stylesheets. Wrote README.

set default route to point to message list. added del. link to massage list.

added sliders galore, and its seems to work OK.

finished helpers for color sliders and font size sliders!

Sliders work for setting size and color!! I need to make a helper for them, then drop them in, and the stylehseet part will be basically done!

selects in place of text fields in appropriate places in the style design section. Tweaked stylesheets

moved headline into colors panel, created incidentals panel

saved stylesheets can now be selected. if they are, they preempt all otehr style editing. so there's now a round-about way to edit existing stylesheets.

setting some defaults in the view

committing a few files that missed the last time

Basica functionality present to edit most CSS fields. No demos yet, and all are just text fields (no sliders or selects). No styling of lists or HRs yet

and the last one...

adding another .js file

adding javscript files

updated javascripts to most recent Scripaculous (may not hve been necessary). Refactored messages/send_or_save to be in a big transaction. Moved styles partial to the mailer so that ActionMailer can find it. Set full stylesheet (except for needing to add a width/color/etc for
tags).

one last time...

and again...

trying again with stylesheet model

added stylesheet model

trying to commit lighttpd.conf

Good morning! Added styles for page layout -- looks much better. Working tabs for Email text and Styles, with changing styles to indicate which is active.

message preview and sent text now share some styles -- this will need to be put in a styles partial of some sort. Basic functionality is present, as long as you don't want to add your own styles. :) That, as well as making the application and emails look pretty, will be tomorrows task. Bed calls.

Sends multipart formatted email! Also continu dto refine display of messages/list

making sure everything is hunky-dory with the new included BlueCloth files

removing sessions from version control (I think)

Messages are now saved before being sent, and a message list screen exists. It allows further editting of messages that have not yet been sent. Added boolean 'sent' flag to message model, as well as created_at and updated_at.

removing the database settings file

ignoring temporary files

First commit posted to web. I worked for an hour waiting for the SVN server to be ready. Message model is created in very basic form, and a form can be filled out which creates and sends a basic message. Observe_form in place watching the form, right now it just echos the message below as you write.

testing the commit script

I wonder if this will show up

Rails Day 2006!

I will try to use a SVN commit script to post my commit messagges to this blog as Rails Day goes on.
