This plugin contains macros which allow finer control over the layout (or composition) of a page.
The macros in this package use CSS and JavaScript (a.k.a. ECMAScript) extensively. The macros generally don't do anything other than allow you to control how and when page content is displayed.

A really neat macro.
it would be nice if, instead of using a complicated deck/card hierarchy for nested cards, you were able to tell the page to convert heading tags into cards, so that:

Hi Vincent,
From reading your issue report I'm not entirely clear what you are trying to achieve. Are you using the Composition macros in the 'Navigation' page while using the Left Navigation theme, or something else entirely?
Sorting this issue out in comments is not the best approach for several reasons. It would be best if you signed up for an account at the JIRA tracker above and create a bug report there with more details on the nature of the problem.

Hi,
I'm using Ajax to display a "Loading" message while the page is loading in the background, but when the page is displayed all deck/cards elements on the page are not showing.
Everything else works fine.
Any ideas why that happens? Not sure if this is because of the composiiton macro.

Decks and cards use JavaScript in the background to arrange and render the cards. Most likely, your ajax is interfering with the initialisation process.
Try adding something like this to your 'done loading' JavaScript code:
if (Behaviour) {
Behaviour.apply(document.body);
}
It may not be exactly correct. Also, if you're just hiding a specific <div> tag, you can pass that in instead of 'document.body'.

Hi David,
thank you for the quick response.
When I try to use the code you indicated I get a "Behaviour is not defined" error message.
The following is the Ajax code I'm using. I also tries to include the 3 .js files indicated in http://www.randombits.org/x/ugo but that didn't work either.
var page = "$body";
function loadPage() {
var h = document.getElementById('contentContainer')
h.innerHTML = "Loading data.... Please wait...."var ajaxRequest; // The variable that makes Ajax possible!
try{
// Opera 8.0+, Firefox, Safari
ajaxRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
} catch (e){
// Internet Explorer Browsers
try{
ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e) {
try{
ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e){
// Something went wrong
alert("Your browser broke!");
returnfalse;
}
}
}
// Create a function that will receive data sent from the server
ajaxRequest.onreadystatechange = function(){
if(ajaxRequest.readyState == 4){
var a = document.getElementsByTagName('body');
a[0].innerHTML = ajaxRequest.responseText;
}
}
ajaxRequest.open("GET", page, true);
ajaxRequest.send(null);
}
}
window.onload=loadPage;

it would be nice if, instead of using a complicated deck/card hierarchy for nested cards, you were able to tell the page to convert heading tags into cards, so that:
{format-heading-as-cards} h1. something h2. alpha h2. beta content h1. someting elsewould render as the following card (excuse the approximate card formating):
Options could specifiy what level to 'card' versus traditional heading layouts.

Have a look on CONF-7850, where I describe a conflict between composition macros used in Navigation page and Normal pages.

i havent a Jira-accout on your site. So i post an issue here. There is something missing within the css to display the cards (tabbed) correctly in Internet Explorer (Firefox works fine).
Just add
to the following style class:
.deck .cards.tabbed { border: 1px solid #339999; }Then scroll bars will correctly be displayed and there isnt a tab overflow if there is to much content in a tab.
cheers
