3e03626cc1 v4: text is edited where it stands through one component, InlineEdit, and a dump's note and a playlist's title and description join its title, a profile's description and email — those three were written apart, each with its own state, keys, buttons, error and CSS, and the note and the playlist could only be changed in their full editors. InlineEdit (components/form) shows the text; a click on it, or the ✎ after it, opens a field holding it, with Save and Cancel under it. A one-line field takes the text's own type in every style, from the class it is handed (dump-title, playlist-detail-title), and sits on the faint plate the text showed under the pointer, so that nothing moves but the buttons that come; a Markdown text opens the editor comments use. Enter saves a line, Ctrl+Enter a Markdown text, Escape backs out, a text left as it was closes without a request, a required one can't be emptied, a refused save says why in one line beside the buttons, and the focus goes back to the ✎. A click on a link in the text, or one that ends a selection, follows the link or keeps the selection. The ✎ is now a button with the action's name, where a div pretended to be one, and the text keeps its own role, a heading or Markdown. The plate is drawn under the text by a pseudo-element, tinted from its colour: the surface colour it had was the card's own, and showed nothing on the dump page. On a playlist's page the title edits in place beside Follow and Edit, which go to the row's end, and the description too; an empty note or description says what goes there to whoever may write it. DescriptionEditor and EmailEditor go.
The GeoCities marquee stops only for a link the keyboard focused: a link pressed with the pointer took the focus as well, which put the line back at its start and scrolled it, so the link slipped from under the pointer before the button came up and the click was lost. The next page's marquee also carries on from the very point the last one had reached, with the loop it showed: it worked its place out from when the loop began, which ran on while the crawl was paused under the pointer, and showed the feed as it was by then, of another width.

The chat's message field rests on one line, as tall as the Send button: it rested on two, 54 to 62 pixels against the button's 38, and the button sat low beside it. Both take --chat-composer-height.

51439f475d v4: the GeoCities marquee scrolls the community feed, what the site's members are doing — it crawled three canned lines, a welcome, "best viewed in Netscape Navigator" and "under construction", which said nothing of the site. The feed is a list any style may show (CommunityFeed.tsx), which GeoCities lays out along its marquee: who is online, the week's dumps, upvotes, comments and chat messages, linking to /community, its most upvoted dump, then the 12 latest things done in public, newest first, each ending on how long ago it was: a public dump posted, a public playlist created, a comment or an upvote on a public dump, someone joining and who invited them. Every name and title links to its page. A dump has one comment line and one upvote line at most, its latest, so that a thread or a popular dump doesn't fill the feed. GET /api/community/feed serves it, signed in only (community-service.ts): the events are read from the tables on each request, the week's figures are those /community already keeps, as of its last refresh. A signed-out visitor has no marquee. CommunityFeedProvider holds the feed around every page, so that it outlives the header each page renders anew, fetches it only while a component shows it, and fetches it again two seconds after the socket last told of a dump, a comment, a vote, a playlist, a rename, a deletion or a reconnection: the socket's messages don't carry a feed's lines, and the server's query stays the one place that decides what the feed holds. Someone joining comes with no message, and shows at the next of those. The crawl goes at 50 pixels a second however much the feed holds, Marquee.tsx measuring one copy for the stylesheet to work the loop's length out from, where a fixed 36 seconds would have sped up with every line. A loop shows what the feed held when it began: text that changed mid-crawl would jump, so what came meanwhile waits for the next loop, which also brings the times up to date. The next page's marquee carries on from where the last one's had got to, rather than from the start. The marquee was hidden from assistive technology as decoration; its first copy is now a labelled list of links, the second, which the seamless loop needs, hidden and out of the tab order. A link that takes the focus stops the crawl and the line scrolls to it, the pointer pauses it as before, and with reduced motion the line shows once, still, follows the feed as it changes and scrolls by hand. The sentences a notification also says, "posted", "upvoted", "commented on", share its translations. The tests' DOM gets an AnimationEvent before React loads (src/test/before-react.ts): finding none, React listened for the animation events under their WebKit names, and a test's "animationiteration" reached no handler.

62e51f1622 v4: the six styles are reworked, each around one idea of its own, and the tab row stops painting the page — a pass over every theme, then the faults it showed in what they share. Brutalist draws every box in ink with a solid offset shadow and sets the palette's colors as flat blocks (a teal tag, an apricot quote, an inked label); its dark scheme keeps that ink darker than the page, on Twilight Indigo, where eggshell lines glared across every frame. GeoCities goes to the desktop of its day: the header is the taskbar, the site's name its Start button, the controls grey bevels, and a marquee crawls under the header (Marquee.tsx, drawn in that style alone), with Comic Neue where the system has no Comic Sans. Melange leaves its browns and Fraunces for a sorbet blend in Bricolage Grotesque, run along the header, through the site's name, where it drifts, and between a journal's blocks; its two schemes are one print and its negative, trading ink and paper while the pink and the plum written on it stay, and they share one fine grain where the light one had a coarse tile that greyed the page. Kanagawa opens the comments and the related dumps on a status line and reads on Lotus's brightest paper; its page is flat. Times draws its heavy rules in a mid grey at night, where ink is near white, and sets a journal cell with no picture as text. In what the styles share: a row of tabs (TabBar) hid the tabs scrolled under its scope switcher, and faded its ends, by painting the page's color over them, which showed as a patch on any page that is a gradient or a picture. The switcher now sits before the row that scrolls, which clips the tabs at its edge, and the fades are a mask (--tab-fade-start and --tab-fade-end); useRoomBeside measures the row through that one more level. A page's title keeps a word whole unless it alone is wider than the line: Firefox sizes a title set with negative letter-spacing a hair narrower than it lays it out, which dropped its last letter to a second line in any style that tightened it, so the rule is the base's and the two styles' copies go. A card holding one paragraph, such as the instances a new account hasn't signed in to on /settings, is spaced by its padding and not by the paragraph's margins as well. The site's name answers the pointer as a card's title does in each style, where two of them left it still. The emails follow the styles' tokens, Melange's blend among them.
