The NYTimes Document Viewer

document-viewer's Issues

Mini-Mode.

It would be great to have a mini-mode option for DV.load, which would fit the document viewer into dimensions suitable for embedding in a blog (or blog-style format). A common request. The API could be:

DV.load(doc, {mini: true});

Unless it would be better to have mini-mode be automatically activated by the current width of the viewer...

How to enable 'click to add new note'

I am unable to add a new note. Please let me know how to enable this option.

Stop polling the DOM.

At the moment, we have poll the DOM every 100 milliseconds, doing two things: checking to see if the window dimensions have changed, in order to resize the viewer, and checking to see if the viewer DIV has been scrolled down, and we need to load a new page.

The polling could be removed, and the feel of resizing and scrolling correspondingly tightened up, if we can figure out a way to reliably and performantly work with scroll and resize events in a cross-browser fashion.

page-width / scrolling for iPad

Now that iPads are starting to spread around, it would be great to have the viewer listen to the appropriate touch events to scroll the page. Currently you have to use the two-fingered-scroll to scroll the viewer.

How to create input data in JSON?

I am probably just missing out on something here, but my question is:

How do I generate the JSON file, that is needed as input for the document-viewer?
Especially the annotations don't look like something that one would generate by hand.

Is there another project that can used for generating this, and if yes, is that open sourced too?

Brittle and Inefficient CSS Selectors for state changes

The selector rules for handling state changes are quite long and fairly brittle should the markup change. Example from view-text.css

.DV-viewText #DV-sidebar #DV-well .DV-chaptersContainer div.DV-hasChildren div.DV-first .DV-trigger{ margin-left:-1px; }

These should be optimized so to ease templating.
