Photo gallery?
by Damien Cassou
Hi,
is there any photo gallery available for Pier? I mean a widget where I
could upload pictures and they are rendered in a nice way. I started
one 4 years ago but I abandoned it.
Bye

Twitter Bootstrap and Magritte
by Nick Ager
Hi,
Based on the new file library (see previous mail) I've started work on a
Twitter Bootstrap Magritte form renderer [1].
The repository includes the Twitter Bootstrap libraries, Twitter Bootstrap
Magritte form and component renderers and a configurable Magritte form
rendering example.
If you want to give it a spin, you'll need the latest Seaside and Magritte
3 code, as well as the code from the repository.
I've put the sample up on seasidehosting -

Cheers

Great I've seen my first Pier ePUB book. I could view it in the Firefox
add-on.
Have you had any luck viewing the output ePUB file with iBooks on iOS? I
tried with my iPhone but it wouldn't open. I also noticed that the section
link wasn't numbered - any thoughts?
