[development doc updates]

[Fred L. Drake]

The development version of the documentation has been updated:

http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/

Lots of changes to how tables are actually formatted, with much of the
styling moved from the HTML to the CSS stylesheet.

Tables also look nicer in supporting browsers.

Please review the tables and report any strange presentations; be sure
to include the specific browser (including platform and version!) in
your report.


A downloadable package containing the HTML is also available:

Using MSIE 6.0 on Windows XP Professional, the tables have borders on the
left and bottom, but no borders on the top and right sides. The interior
borders between cells are fine.

Do you wath the reports here or in the bug tracker? Anyway here is one:

Using Firefox 1.0 and Firefox 1.0PR on Win2K, the tables are missing the
left and right borders. For example in Section 2.3.6, the table of
operations for sequence types, in the 2.3.4 docs I have a black border
on left, right and bottom; in the dev docs it is only on the bottom.

and top.

Also the borders under the header and at the bottom are heavier in the
new docs; my guess is that is intentional...

Same problem on Win XP SP2 with Firefox 1.0PR.
