Description Melancholie 2008-11-27 21:43:25 UTC
The OggPlayer is not usable without JavaScript (+/-5%). That's ok. Therefore an (i) icon appears giving you a link to the file description. Now the problem:

The (i) info icon is rather big and it's produced a line break before it: http://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibrant (by <div>)
Thus some projects *have* to remove that icon (and have to make the button smaller): http://is.wiktionary.org/wiki/auga
But then there is another text link necessary...

Please surround the "/w/extensions/OggHandler/play.png" image tag with an <a href="Filedescriptionpage"> tag so the button will lead people to the file description page (if they already are there the player won't work anyway, note necessary)! If that html tag will interfere with the onclick event, just remove the href destination with JavaScript (onload or whatever).

Furthermore, provide a possibility (maybe optional, as the player currently is used/aligned like it just is) to let the player button float inline like other images do. The div tags are producing line breaks, that doesn't fit smoothly into some layouts, unfortunately.

That are major issues why dewiktionary is hesitating using the OggPlayer within entries, for example.

Note: The <a> tag solution is ment for people having JavaScript disabled, only!

This was probably never fixed, but is in practice supersed by TimedMediaHandler, or at least I don't see the issue any longer.
