Hi,

over the holidays we have completed the relaunch of our company page http://contaire.com . The implementation resulted in some new code for the Drupal community and we are very happy with the result.

You can read the full account of our experience - which was a pleasant one - at http://contaire.com/drupalsite .

Thank you all for this nice piece of work.
Olav

Would it be possible for you to post the whole text of the drupalsite entry as a book page? It would be great for the new Success stories section of the handbook.

I thought I could avoid HTML by writing in Textile ;-)

I have put the article at http://drupal.org/node/15243 . The code examples in CODE and PHP tags seem to be slurped up by the filter though.

Thanks. I approved it. Yeah, not sure what's going on with the code. I'll look into it.

The anti-inline-CSS filter is a bit too greedy and messed up the code (which contains a $style variable). The CSS filter has always been a sore point, basically it needs to be flexible so you can't use broken HTML (which a browser still understands) to get around it, but on the other hand, it shouldn't just strip out any mention of "style" everywhere.

I'll see if I can fix it up, basically it seems the \s character includes a lot more characters than HTML considers to be whitespace.

For now I changed the book page to Full HTML.

I think it was better posted as a forum topic and linked into the book using the outline feature. Also, while the site looks awesome, the write-up it is a bit technical to be a good success story: it reads more like an advanced tutorial. Lastly, there aren't any (clickable) links to the original site so people can't see what you're talking about. The screenshots in the original article were killer.

I did find the 'advanced tutorial' feature part of my interest in the write up. I often wonder about how a paticular site was put together. It also seems to be one of the learning curve's of new users. Choosing what modules and in what combination to accomplish things can be a daunting task.

So you want to create an "advanced tutorial" section? :P Yep it's technical, but they're also a technical company.

The minimal write-up here meant that most people wouldn't follow the link to read the whole thing. It's nice to have great content like this right on Drupal.org.

I edited it to include a note/link at the top of the article.
