Fix stuff in kde-www, will port it over.


here is a pathetic rendering problem of the new design on some versions

>www and bugs.kde.org
Yes, commit it, will look at it and commit to www.

Could be solution ;)

sure ;)

>Moving /helping/jobs/open.php to /helping/open.php ("Open Jobs")
>Moving /helping/jobs/index.php to /helping/jobs.php ("Getting Involved")
>Make "Open Jobs" a subpoint of "Helping Out" in the menu
>Make "Getting Involved" a subpoint of "Helping Out" in the menu

Hmm, have simply moved the helping/jobs back to jobs, why was it moved
at all,
if good reason will undo my changes in www later.

First porting the page over, vote after the page is usable.
