LBH's Armageddon Shipviewer

[lastbesthope]

Well it's up on my website, follow the link in my sig.

If you see any stat errors or missing links, let me know, here or via PM.

I know the EM War stuff isn't up yet, not sure whether to run with Early EA or SFOS EA, I'll try and get the unique ships up next weekend so at least you can decide.

Cheers

1. All of the ships:

Whoops! We can't find your page!

The web page you are trying to access doesn't exist on Yahoo! GeoCities.
http://
If you continue to have trouble, visit our help area for information and assistance.

It seems you've used a \ instead of a /.


2. Clicking on the special traits inserts an extra blank line instead of changing the format (on firefox, works on IE)



3. Any ships with craft do not show them, and gives javascript errors (on firefox, works on IE)

Yes fireforx does not like LBH's shipviewer. IE works though.

BTW LBH, you might want to change your sig. ^^ List armageddon ships too.

@ Burger, all the links seem fine to me, Geocities must have had a brainfart.

As for the code not working in Firefox, I don't know, it's Obsidian's Javascript/XML stuff so I don't know how it works or how to fix it, I'm just the ship stat monkey :lol:

Will there be a downloadable version?

 

[lastbesthope]

I would say way, but I'm only just ahead of you there.

Click on the accolades link in my sig, takes you to a post on these forums, where I have, this very night, added a link to a downloadable zip file of the Armageddon version as it stands.

The other 3 versions are also there, the name of the file gives you a time stamp

Armageddon_yymmddhhmm

File created hh:mm on the dd/mm/yy (mm/dd/yy if you're in the US)

If you "view source" on your ship menu, you can see all the links have \ instead of / in them. IE fixes this up automatically, but firefox doesn't. Hence none of your links work in Firefox.

Works for me... :?

Great job LBH. Thanks for this.

Seems to make sense.

My firefox never gets any of the links working. But EA does em in a snap.

edit
OFC i mean IE!!!, EA has nothing to do with evil Microsoft, or do they?

Fixed the slashes, hope it still works for the IE bunch.

Also for the Firefox user, there are downloadable Zip versiuons of the Shipviewers, links in my Accolades post linked to in my sig. (Updated with slash changes)

As LBH said, I decided long ago not to bother with firefox compatibility. Far too many issues for far too few users. The code works 100% in IE and if someone would like to download and modify them to work in both they can be my guest.

I have Firefox and just tried to view my Vree and it worked just fine for me.
Don't know about the rest of you with Firefox...(Shrug)

You'd be surprised how many people use it... especially among the internet-savvy, of which a large proportion of forum members are...

 

[Voronesh]

Ive got to agree here.

Not many people might be using it at start. But when you introduce someone to firefox they hardly ever go back. Plus amongst students here, its growing in favor alot.

Yes :lol:
And proud of it!

There's a Firefox plugin to run a page in MSIE, I use that facility to view XML in general.

incidentally in case anyone was wondering the / vs \ is simply a difference between xml and html as far as I know (the \ of the xml stuff is designed to be able to run through normal windows explorer i believe).

IE can translate between the two, firefox cant. HOWVER as noted there is very little that IE can do that Firefox cant do (and do it faster ) with the right plugins

<geek>
Its nothing to do with XML. \ is a Windows path seperator, / is the standard internet path seperator. Some poorly coded Windows web development applications will use \ instead of the correct version, /.

Since IE is a Microsoft product and windows-oriented, it assumes that when you typed \ you meant a path seperator. So it changes it into / for you. Firefox follows the proper Internet standard, which is to give an error because the pathname containing "\" does not exist.

Damn it why won't this thing turn off...

fair enough, but I think you just prometed yourself from geek to nerd
