Looks good to me (my CSS is out-of-date -- I'm assuming classes with ':' in are generally understood by browsers?).
I was hoping someone would tell me if this isn't the case :) I'm now thinking though that actually it would probably be safer to use underscores instead, since colons do have special meaning in stylesheets.
Having these classes would also mean we could do something like having big clear icons for things that you might want to see at a glance eg 'has disabled access', 'has baby changing facilities', etc.
Yes!
Aside: Owen has observed that there are two (or possibly more) different types of category: 'is X' (eg 'Cafes') and 'has X' (eg 'Baby Changing Facilities').
Yep. On RGL, the former are plural ("Category Pubs") and the latter are singular ("Category Beer Garden"). This wasn't entirely on purpose, it's just the way things mostly turned out, so I decided to make it a deliberate policy (albeit an unstated one) for the sake of consistency.
On the other hand, we could then differentiate between the use of 'Cafes' to mean 'is a cafe' (eg G&Ds) and 'has a cafe' (eg Waterstones). If we cared.
I'm not sure we do care - does this distinction really matter in a practical sense?
[Goth/Gay guides etc]
I think it's best done elsewhere.
Goodgood. Are you happy to delete them or should we wait & see if anybody else on here objects?
Let's wait a bit and see if anyone else has an opinion. I have put a note in my diary to sort it out in a few weeks if it proves uncontroversial.
