programs page bad colours

Issue #87 resolved
dd1 created an issue

on the programs page, the "running on host" column now has bad colours - very low contrast - white text on whitish background. That text is actually links to /system/clients, so should have normal link colours. In any case low-contrast "white on white" text is not good. K.O.

    Check again with the current develop version (you have to clear your browser cache to force reload of the new JS and CSS files)

    I see the where the problem is. Links have the text colour set to "white" instead of customary blue/purple for visited/unvisited. K.O.

    I made that on purpose, because blue/purple inside the red box is almost unreadable (several people complained). Below is a direct comparison.

    I changed now the "white" (which was #EEEEEE) to "pure white" (#FFFFFF), is that any better?

    restored normal colours of links by default. in places where special high-contrast colours are needed, i.e. the "alarms" top bar, select special colours by css class. K.O.

    Still not satisfied. We have now two green boxes: "localhost" and "Alarms: None". Both have the same background, but different colors for the links. Whatever we do, we should keep the style of links consistent over all our pages. Now we can argue if the green background favours a white link or a blue link. I personally favour a white one, but I can agree to use the default blue one, but then please also change the alarm link to look the same.
