First big site update

There have been a lot changes since I launched the site last weekend. Let's go through them:


Improved Package View

I improved the package's detail view. Now you get information about the developer, the homepage and further installation instructions.
Additionaly you can use BBCode in the long descreption.

To highlight installation instructions, you can use the new [ install ]-Tag (without spaces).


Furthermore, it's possible to add dependencies, that are not automatically resolved by opkg, to each package.


RSS-Feeds

There are two new RSS-Feeds:
- http://www.opkg.org/news_feed.php">News Feed
- http://www.opkg.org/feed.php">Latest Packages Feed

You can simply add them to your favourite RSS-Reader.


Improved Javascript-Compatibility

I recoded the "most popular"-box on the start page. It should work better than the old one. If you have Javascript disabled, the box doesn't stay blank anymore. It will display the package with the best rating.


News-Site

To keep you up to date, I added this little news blog with a comment function. Feel free to leave your opinion as a comment (http://www.opkg.org/posting_1.html#comments).


Bug fixes

I fixed a lot of bugs in the system (thanks to Thomas Bertani again) and one mayor bug in the layout, which let the menu fall down to the footer. This shouldn't happen anymore.


Well, that's it for now. I have some great features in mind. Depending on how much time I can invest, they will be available soon. I'm also happy if you give me your feedback trough the contact form (http://www.opkg.org/contact.html).

Regards,
Tobias
