I'll try again later today after I get the cert installed. I need to demo the VM control panel for my webmasters... after I trim down their menus.

Hey Joe,

I did try it today. Seems be good but the only thing I found there is that the site list ( drop down menu ) can't load properly in Linux Ubuntu Firefox. I didn't check it in IE or Firefox in Windows. Here in Ubuntu linux it stalled on loading...

Not to rain on the parade, but I would appreciate a search function and simple dropdown menus like the Stress Free theme. It's nice to be able to be able to quickly search for a function, or use the dropdowns instead of clicking [+] to expand all of the options, then using browser search to find the function.

Quick question - is this theme still available somewhere? I am looking into possible themes usable from within Virtualmin...

Yes, of course. It's in the Virtualmin Professional repositories--it will be the default Virtualmin theme soon. I'm releasing a new version with major changes in the next couple of days. As I mentioned the theme is still a preview release--it is not intended for production use. I'm hoping to finish it up and get it production ready in the next few days.

It also has some issue on Macintosh, under Safarin 3.0, on OS X 10.5, Leopard.

I really like this theme as it makes excellent use of screen real estate, however it just sits there trying to load the domain names into the drop down select box for me. So I cannot select a virtual server.

Earlier Joe mentioned the size of the ajax script and I wondered if Joe has looked at the MooTools Javascript Framework? Its about 40-45k compressed depending on features. Awesome framework....Joomla is using it in their new version 1.5. You could easily spice up the themes with the library with animated drawers etc. All cross browser compat too. It has ajax as well.

Hey Steve,

I'm pretty well committed to ExtJS. The widget selection is astonishingly good--it has its flaws, but the end results is wonderful. I'm within a day or so of another release of this theme, and it's got a lot of improvements...performance is no longer an issue. The JavaScript is only loaded once in the new version...that was actually a really easy problem to solve, I just didn't know how at the time I rolled up the preview version.

I have looked at all of the other frameworks, and I think some astonishingly good work is being done in several of them. My favorite of the other options out there is jQuery. I've met John Resig a few times at Y Combinator events, and he's just such an incredibly smart guy. The good news is that if we find we want to make use of jQuery for selectors and such, ExtJS widgets can back up to jQuery seamlessly. It's a really nice compromise.

Anyway, it was just a preview release. ;-)

As for the bug you're seeing, it might be the same one Alan saw earlier--edit the miniserv.conf and turn off internalcgis (or whatever it was I said do in that earlier discussion). It's bug-like, but I haven't figured out how to fix it yet.

Any way to get a copy that doesn't require YUM? FreeBSD and all.

(Translation: I'm a troublemaker.)

UNpossible. ;-)

I don't have that version handy anywhere any more to package it up. I'm nearly there on a working new version, so you'll have to wait a couple more days for a .wbm version. (As I mentioned, the previous release was not ready for prime-time anyway--it's just something fun to play with, and see where things are going.)
