- The VM list's power forms (style="display:inline") are d-inline.
- The fields scripts show and hide are d-none, and the scripts add and
remove that class instead of calling jQuery's show() and hide(),
which could not undo it: the custom memory boxes of the Resize tab,
the ISO upload's error message and the clone dialog's metadata row.
- The please-wait dialog's full bar is w-100.
- The create-VM pages' own 56rem width (.create-vm) goes: pages stop
at 960px now, about the same.
- static/css/font-awesome.min.css goes: no page loaded it, no element
used its classes and its fonts were never in the repository.
Three upstream rules in webvirtcloud.css set every page's layout
against Bootstrap 5.3:
- .container { max-width: 900px } held each page to 900px at any
screen width, below Bootstrap's own widths. Pages now take
Bootstrap's container widths up to its lg one, 960px, and stop
there on wider screens: its xl and xxl widths (1140px, 1320px) leave
the panel's forms and lists too wide;
- .page-header (margins of 5px 5px 20px 20px) put headings 20px right
of the content under them; its 14 uses are mb-3, flush with the
content (one carried Bootstrap 4's mr-auto, now me-auto);
- p { margin: 10px } indented every paragraph 10px from the content
beside it; paragraphs take Bootstrap's own bottom margin.
webvirtcloud.css keeps only what Bootstrap has no utility for: the
page width cap, the XML editor's place and height, the Tom Select
colour fix, the sortable table headers' arrows, the grouped VM list's
collapsed hosts and the charts' height.
webvirtcloud.css still carried the upstream panel's rules for what
Bootstrap 5.3 has as utilities and components:
- the page's bottom space (body padding) is pb-5 on base.html's body,
and the console page no longer has to undo it;
- the VM page's action tabs (.action-button, .action-block with a
fixed 65px width) are text-center with a d-block icon; its tab panes
(#power ... #undefine, one rule each) mt-3;
- the bordered sub-tab panes (.tab-pane-bordered, a fixed #eee border
that dark themes could not change) border border-top-0 p-3;
- the search box and header buttons (.search, .btn-header) m-1 and
mt-1; the SSH key select (.keyselect) a form-select;
- the boot order list (.multipleselect, fixed size, #c0c0c0 border) a
list-group of form-check-input items; its unused .multipleselect-on
goes;
- table cells centred by a global rule are align-middle on each table.
Two rules against Bootstrap's behaviour go: menus opened on hover on
wide screens (Bootstrap opens them on a click, and keyboard and touch
users had no hover), and "a { outline: 0 }", which hid the keyboard
focus ring.
The paragraph and page-header margins and the 900px container stay
for a separate change: they set every page's layout.
Eleven host pages (overview, instances, storages, networks, interfaces,
nwfilters, secrets and their item pages) each carried their own copy of
the links to the host's sections, as a breadcrumb: the sections are
siblings, not a path, and on a phone the separators were left at the
start of wrapped lines. The item pages marked no section at all.
computes/host_nav.html is the one nav, labelled "Host sections": pills
that wrap, the page's section marked active, with aria-current="page"
on the section's own page and "true" on an item of it.
- libvirt refuses to refresh a pool while a volume is cloned in it. The pool
page, the volume list of the VM and create pages, upload planning and the
API no longer fail on that refusal; they use the list libvirt has.
- A new pool that does not start (unreachable NFS server, a device LVM
cannot use) is undefined again, so the name is free for another try.
- A pool reporting no size, such as an iSCSI pool without LUNs, shows its
page instead of a division error.
- Each clone dialog shows its own format and metadata rows, so a format
is never shown without Convert ticked and silently ignored.
- The new-volume size is labelled in GiB and is at least 1; an inactive
pool shows no "None" volume count.
The list pages' search (filter-table.js) read what was typed as a
regular expression: a "(" or "[" stopped it with an error. It also
needed jQuery, while the instance list had its own script for the same
search. Both are now static/js/table_filter.js: plain text in any case,
the instance list's state list and host groups where a page has them,
remembered for a day as before. A group's header row is marked as one
(data-group-header) instead of being any row without a state.
sortable.js 0.8.0 (abandoned since 2014) sorted only a table's first
body: in the grouped VM list the first host's row moved among its VMs
and the other hosts never sorted, and memory sorted as text ("1024 MB"
before "512 MB"). tablesort 5.7.1 sorts each table body on its own and
keeps a row marked data-sort-method="none" in place, so hosts stay in
name order with their row on top and their VMs sort below it. Memory,
vCPUs and volume sizes sort by their numbers (data-sort). Headers are
reachable by keyboard and carry aria-sort.
base.html loads tablesort for every table marked data-sortable; the
per-page sortable includes and sortable-theme-bootstrap.css go, so these
tables take the theme's table style like the others. The grouped list's
row numbers go (meaningless once sorted). The VM owners and VM logs
tables were marked sortable but never loaded the script; they stay
unsorted.
The search box floats right of the short Volumes heading and hung
below it, so the table beside it shrank and its headers met the box.
The heading's wrapper now clears the float.
Twenty-five prompts asked only "Are you sure?", and on the storage page
one handler asked the same before every button, Start and Enable
included. Each destructive button now names its object and says what
happens: a stopped network cuts running VMs off, a deleted pool keeps
its files, a deleted volume loses its data, a reverted snapshot loses
the changes made since. Saves no longer ask, and disabled buttons lose
prompts they could not show. The VM QoS messages said to restart the
network where the VM has to be powered off and on.

Twenty tables had no .table-responsive wrapper, so on a phone the user
list, compute list, VM lists, network and network filter pages scrolled
sideways as a whole. Each table now scrolls inside its box, as the
other ten already did. The page test walks the network page too, and
checks that every table on every page has the wrapper.

An accessibility scan of the pages on a real host (the earlier scans ran
on libvirt's test driver) found unnamed elements the test driver never
renders: the network page's add fixed address buttons and their dialog
fields, the XML box of each nwfilter's details dialog and the convert
checkbox of the volume clone dialog. The buttons get a title, the labels
a for= and the fields an id, the XML box an aria-label.
Rendered through every URL on libvirt's test driver, the pages had
duplicate IDs and markup browsers repaired silently:
- Each flavor modal's "Advanced" button toggled #flav-add-collapse, the
first modal's section; every modal now has its own. The flavor and
template copies of the custom tab's control IDs, and the template
tab's unused images input, are gone.
- The VM page's action icons and the XML editors were styled by
repeated IDs; they use classes.
- Modal forms opened inside modal-body and closed after modal-footer;
they wrap both. Stray end tags and duplicate attributes are removed,
paragraphs no longer hold modals or rows, table heads have a row, and
the create page closes its row and column.
- html lang is the active language instead of "en".
A test walks every URL as a superuser and fails on a repeated ID. The
console page still has no doctype: its full-height layout relies on
quirks mode and needs its own check.
The job panel follows an ISO upload, so the dialog closes when the first
chunk is accepted and its progress bar goes; the dialog opens again with
the error if the upload stops. The browser still sends the file, so the
page asks before it is left while an upload runs. The storage page no
longer includes the please-wait dialog, which nothing on it opened.
The upload session lives in a job instead of flocks and .meta/.done
files; the job panel shows and cancels it; an upload idle for an hour is
ended and its partial file deleted; the page no longer reloads after an
upload.
