things we have all learned where to look for

[denise]

For the wiki, I'd like to build a list of "things we have learned where to look for" -- like, "I want to change this thing. Where in the code would i find it?"

Some examples of what I mean, quick 'cause my brain's melting:

text string on page $foo --> in $foo.text or in ~/bin/upgrading/en.dat
styles --> ~/bin/upgrading/s2layers
all the routines that make html controls --> ~/cgi-bin/htmlcontrols.pl
control strip --> ~/cgi-bin/weblib.pl

Stuff like that! What should be on that list?

Images and CSS files: /htdocs/img and /htdocs/stc, but the hardest part for me is remembering which one has the image I want (theme images are in /stc but theme previews are in /img for example).

Where's JS?

Hmm. /htdocs/js ? Yep, that's it.

Is there logic about which goes where, and what does "stc" stand for anyway - I keep wondering!!

I'd say stc is static something content.
