Comment on attachment 50483 [details] patch We talked about this in IRC: Please use the theme stylesheet mechanism for special appearances. No need for nasty hacks in RenderStyle and SelectElement. Eliminate SELECT_ALWAYS_USE_POPUP_MENU ifdef, switch this based on current style (Maemo5Style in this case) Casting to WebComboStyleOption is bit nasty. If QStyleOptionComplex is insufficient for passing everything, it would be better to subclass it and use that subclass everywhere in webkit Qt theme, not just in special case of combo box.

Thanks. > Please use the theme stylesheet mechanism for special appearances. No need for > nasty hacks in RenderStyle and SelectElement. For sure theme stylesheet mechanism is much better than making changes in core classes. However I could not find how to avoid changes in SelectElement. IMHO it is really needed. > Eliminate SELECT_ALWAYS_USE_POPUP_MENU ifdef, switch this based on current > style (Maemo5Style in this case) I don't want to make this changes enabled in maemo5 right now because if an special popup implementation is not supplied for <select multiple> then it makes <select multiple> == <select>. I am thinking about making this patch completely independent of maemo5 and create a new bug about maemo5 theme. The patch about maemo5 theme would then enable multiselect popup, provide the special multiple popup implementation and make some other theme improvements. What do you think? > Casting to WebComboStyleOption is bit nasty.

Again you are right. However casting is quite common in QStyle and its subclasses implementations. QStyleOptionComboBox is an specialization of QStyleOptionComplex used for comboboxes. It is then not possible avoid special cases for combo boxes because at least QStyleOptionComboBox is needed. WebComboStyleOption subclasses QStyleOptionComboBox. With this approach I got: 1 - QStyle subclasses that are aware of WebComboStyleOption can easily get the information needed to render special combos. 2 - special combo rendering naturally falls back to normal combo rendering in QStyle subclasses that are not aware of WebComboStyleOption. Do you think it is really too nasty?

I guess other platforms might want to use something similar, so maybe it is a better idea to introduce a generic flag and combine it with PLATFORM(QT) if needed? ENABLE_NO_LISTBOXES also doesn't sound very Qt dependent, and from looking at the code it isn't so I would suggest you refrase yourself a bit in the ChangeLog. Also I dislike the name; Enabling a disabler sounds strange to me :-) or maybe find a better name. ENABLE(TOUCHABLE_SELECTORS) maybe?

Also, it sound be called SelectElement::listBoxClickEventHandler for consistency.

Comment on attachment 50686 [details] SelectElement x Popup communication > + virtual void listboxClick(int listIndex, bool multi, bool shift, bool fireOnChange = true); Is click really the right terminology here? it sounds very mouse dependent. What about listBoxItemChange? (notice the listbox vs. listBox again)

I already asked Luiz to do the SelectElement refactoring in a separate patch, here: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36124

the dependency was created just to be sure that the patches will get in the commit queue in proper order avoiding patch applying problems.

Removing the [Qt] as this doesn't only touch Qt code.

Created attachment 51067 [details] patch 2

Comment on attachment 51067 [details] patch 2 > #if PLATFORM(QT) && ENABLE(TOUCHABLE_SELECTORS) Don't include the Qt platform ifdef. That should not be necessary. Just use ENABLE(TOUCHABLE_SELECTORS) by itself. The point of ENABLE is to let you define it on the platforms that use it and then platform ifdef gets hidden in the cross-platform code. I don't like the term "TOUCHABLE_SELECTORS" since it's not clear that we're talking about multiple select boxes. Really this feature is about collapsing list boxes in the page and using an external popup to make your choices. I think NO_LISTBOX_RENDERING would be more clear, as per your suggestion on IRC. The rest of the patch looks fine to me.
