I got bored... I'm really just waiting for Extension:Parserfunctions before I do many more content edits and I didn't want to take much time to do maps today.

Help with User Page

Question I may have found a way to make my tab area smaller, but I need to know if theses div classes will work in this Wiki. Here they are. div class="NavFrame", div class="NavHead", and div class="NavContent" I have found on another Wiki they did it by using these 3 div classes and other codes to go along with them. I have not used scripts in the html pages I have built unless it was copied from another code so I am not to versed in that type of programing. That is why I ask alot of questions dealing with that type of coding. I also have not gotten into the more advanced programing styles. All I have done is just the basic type of Web page programing and the WIKI is different then that so I am learning how to program in that way since some of what I do know of HTML programing does not work or works in a different way. If the above div classes will not work then I think I may have a way to do something like what has been done on the other Wiki.

Let me know the page/other wiki and I'll take a look at it to see if it would work here. In the meantime, without knowing the code behind it, I am very likely to say no, it won't work.

I tried coping the code from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_User_Page_Help/Do-It-Yourself/Formatting_Text#Text_formatting under the heading Show/Hide sections and placing it between the tags <nowiki></nowiki> but it all ran together so I just deleted it here in your talk page. But I do have a copy of the coding at User:DavidAHare/Test Page Section A.

I looked at the instructions for that atWikipedia:NavFrame and can say it's not going to be available, at least until I'm looking for another project to work on. It requires editing the css and javascript that's used on the entire wiki and that's not something I'd do without at least testing it awhile first in a controlled environment. In the meantime, we do have collapsible tables which is essentially the same thing.

Thank you for the information. You gave me another way to do something like that. The other way I thought of was to make seperate pages for the 5 different Sections to my profile with the Collapsible funtion and put each tab page on there. By doing this I can program different colors and I am more versed with this way. I will experiment with Collapsible_tables to see what kinds of differrent formats/ways of displaying information with them. I also found <div style="width:50%; height: 150px; overflow:auto; border: thin solid blue; background: white"> </div> which puts a scroll bar on the page which I know works on this Wiki since I have already tested it. I am going to use it on my pages to see if I can shorten the displaying length on some of my pages. I am also trying to get an upgrade computer to do what you did with the server and the Wiki where you were able to test your pages on your computer before saving them to this wiki. The proble I think is the references to information in this Wiki i.e. the Items and creatures, but I will deal with that latter.

I did notice the scrollbar you tested. That might come in handy for some pages.

Min MAX Crafted statistics

Hello, I don't think this is a good idea for 2 reasons. First, the pages code is becoming too complex and second, the quality label of a craft is related to the total gain compared to the uncrafted item. So basicaly, for most items with multiple crafted statistics, the minimum value for any stat is the bas euncrafted value for up to average or good items. I think it is better to give a "typical" value (and warn than actual values may vary...). Well, just my own .02€.
