I would like to request the following patch be applied to /support/see_request.bml so that support volunteers can see additional information with regards to the status of the request: For example:
Status: open (still waiting for approved answers) --> no answer submitted
Status: open (answered, but still needs help) --> answered but user needs more help (similar to help.bml)
Status: open (answered, awaiting closure) --> answer submitted.
You can find the diff at http://www.callete.com/~highway/see_request_121.diff
http://lj.teencity.org/support/see_request.bml?id=5 (example of answered request)
http://lj.teencity.org/support/see_request.bml?id=6 (example of non-answered request)
This will work with the additional patch to /cgi-bin/supportlib.pl where the verbiage will be stored instead of clogging see_request.bml. /support/see_request.bml calls a function in supportlib.pl, which returns a hash, a hash that contains the needed verbiage which is appended to $state in /support/see_request.bml
