1.6 theme upgrade
Moodle1.6
Which areas in Moodle have changed?
The semantic structure of the Moodle Pages
For better orientation of non visual Moodle users it is important to build a semantic structure for all Moodle pages. The skeleton are the headers h1 to h3. Details follow...
The header
For the semantic structure of the Moodle pages the "headermain" area is no longer build with a div but with a "h1" element. (See footer.html)
A link to the relating Moodle Docs page is added. (See footer.html)

What is new in the standard theme in Moodle 1.6?
The following files give you an overview of the changes in the header, footer and the CSS files from 1.5 to 1.6. When you open the linked files you will see all changes made in that file.
You can add these changes to your theme header, footer and CSS files to update them for Moodle 1.6.
These htmlpages show only those parts of the files which are different, not the whole file. The line numbers of the 1.5 and the 1.6 files will help you locate the areas. When you want to apply the changes to completely different files you can search for the old (1.5) property in your files and replace it with the new/changed one.
I will update these files with the differences regularily (every day when possible) until Moodle 1.6 will be released.
