doc/bugs/No_progress_in_progress_bar.mdwn



I've just upgraded my Ikiwiki to backported version 2.64 for Ubuntu Hardy
and wanted to see progress bar in action. Unfortunately, I can't see any progress.
This is my example Ikiwiki syntax:
[[!progress percent=75]]

A here is a HTML result:
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-done"></div>
</div>

It seems that progress plugin works at all, but it's a problem with passing
progress value.
Anyone can confirm the bug? --[[Paweł|ptecza]]

You are correct.  The above example does generate the HTML you suggest.  The
plugin requires a % sign:

[[!progress percent="75%"]]

This could probably be improved.  Certainly the documentation could be. -- [[Will]]


Thanks for the hint, Will! I could check better the code... However, in my opinion
that '%' sign is confusing here and should be dropped. I hope it's clear for all
people that "percent" parameter passes values in percentages. --[[Paweł|ptecza]]

I've forgotten to add that now the HTML code is OK, but I can see only
"75%" string on white background wihout any border. I need to look closer
at CSS styles for the progress bar. --[[Paweł|ptecza]]


You need the div.progress and div.progress-done from ikiwiki's
default style.css. --[[Joey]]


Thank you for the fix, Joey!


I had div.progress* in the style.css file, but my Epiphany didn't want
to display the progress bar... Now it's OK and I can see beautiful progress,
though I've not changed anything. --[[Paweł|ptecza]]
