Subject: Re: [sw-l] SignWriting in MediaWiki

 This is probably for later editions, but I think the editor should load within the same page rather than on a whole new page. Kinda like a pop-up window, but on the same page. Just a thought.

WOW! Steve, this is a major development! THANK YOU!

I just danced a little dance for joy, around my office ;-))

I went to:
http://www.signpuddle.net/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page

Which I assume is the Alpha version of the SignWriting MediaWiki Plugin?

and I was able to edit and save a sign in the Wiki-style web 
page....using the new SignMaker and the ISWA...ha!!

This may lead to possible Wikipedias in written Sign Languages, or 
other wiki-based web sites, will be able to have SignWriting directly 
on their sites...which will clearly lead to the spreading of 
SignWriting throughout the internet...

Congratulations on this accomplishment...

Val ;-)

 Hi Charles,

It's easy to add pages in MediaWiki.  On the left hand side, you'll see 
a search area.  Enter the name for a new page and press Go.
-----------------------------------------


-----------------------------------------

You'll get a search result saying that the page doesn't exist.  There 
will be a link to create the page. 
-----------------------------------------


-----------------------------------------

You'll get a new page opened in edit mode.
-----------------------------------------


-----------------------------------------

You can enter any text you want.  To add signs to the page you can 
either enter the text "" where ever you want a sign to be 
put, or you can press the toolbar button.  Then save the page.  There 
will be edit buttons for the signs  you added.

-----------------------------------------

------------------------------------------

I guess it's not the easiest, but once you get used to it, it really is 
easy.  Here's a link to the new page I created:
http://signpuddle.net/mediawiki/index.php/Test_page

Regards,
-Steve
