New version (v 6 beta) of Qualifications Crossing Boundaries web interface

18-June-2006

[ progress-report , Qualifications/crossing boundaries , QCA ]
I've just posted a new version of the corssing boundaries interface - version 6 beta. This has improvements to the controls for choosing columns, and offers an alternative, plain, styling.

I've just posted version 6 beta of Qualifications can cross boundaries - a rough guide to comparing qualifications in the UK and Ireland.

Changes in this version:

  • Improvement to the controls for choosing to hide some columns, and/or hide the instructions. There is now a series of checkboxes to control this, which makes it look cleaner and also gives better feedback to the user.
  • You can now choose an alternative, plain, styling instead of the leaflet appearance. There is a select-box (drop-down menu) to the right of the checkboxes mentioned above.

There is still room to add to these improvements. I can augment or change the palin stylesheet, and can easily create yet more alternative stylings ( the 'accessible semantic markup' of the table makes this very easy ). The user interface for controlling which columns are shown could be augmented with some ready-made pairwise choices (compare scotland with ireland for instance). And of course there is still a bit of work to be done with the rest of the interface,

Please give us feedback on what you think. Just add comment to this weblog entry, or email Alan with your comments.
