For the record, below the rule line is what part of the proposed titlebar settings config page would look like. Ive had to omit part as FORM type tags are forbidden in a post like this and im not sure how to convert them appropriately.


Welcome to Titlebar Settings!

This is where you can configure the way the links on the title bar are displayed. You can use PerlMonks style HTML and linking to put pretty much whatever you want on the title bar.

Below there is first a preview of what your current settings are, or of the settings you have been working on. After that is a form where you can control the settings. For most of that form the first column is used to specify the position of the link, or html, or whatever, to its right. The numbers default to floating point to remind you that the easiest way to reorder the nodelets is to exploit floating point. Setting a links position to 0 will delete it, or for system links hide it. At the bottom of the form is a set of additional options where you can control what seperator and alignment is used when generating the title bar.

At the very bottom is a set of radio buttons that control what will happen when you hit submit. The option "Preview Settings" will cause submit to show a preview of what the options in the form would look like were they applied. "Apply Settings" will apply whatever settings are on the form. "Preview Defaults" will preview and set the form to the same settings as are default so you can use them as a starting point if you have already changed your titlebar."Preview Current" will set the form to the settings you currently are using and finally "Apply Defaults" will apply the defaults regardless of what is on the form.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
