To dos

your points[edit]

  • fix anchors(links)
  • make long pages flow over to next page
  • make font color display correctly
  • make pictures display inside book
  • figure out if <outline> tag does anything...
  • the font used ingame apears to be slightly smaller then the template font (see "The story of a white doe" page 2, 3 lines are cut off dispite otherwise being line by line accurate)
  • images seem to apear slightly higher then ingame cause is unknown.

rebuttals[edit]

  • Anchors will probably a difficult (but possible) one, seeing as the wiki does not allow you use html anchor tags. But you can use the wikitext links to create anchors, and implement that into the js to change pages.
  • Page truncation is most likely impossible. The html will not know when to cutoff the text and lead onto the next page, if that were even possible in the first place.
  • I don't see how you could have had a problem with the colors in the first place! lolol.
  • Pictures display just fine, but the position may be tiny bits off. That's where line breaks come in. One before the picture (if the picture is fullpage) in most cases.
  • Outline does nothing. That's a custom html tag installed into the game client.
  • The fonts shouldn't be a problem. As far as I can tell, you have the pages complete wrong. o_O Plus, you have to remove the line breaks after the br tags. The wiki reads them twice, creating a second line break. Wikicodingisweird.
  • Again, see my earlier point about images.

Automatic? I don't think that's possible on the wiki. :C Unless you create a program that'll automatically sort it all out. lol..

 

Umm these books are generated from a program when I get all the bugs out I was gonna let it generate all close to 200 in-game books.

Where'd you get the number 200 from? Lol. There are over 421 books. :D

 

With a program though, that'll still be difficult without manual labor.

 
  • I'm not sure what you mean by js (javascript???) all I know is everytime i've tried using wikitext links i couldn't get the link to change page.
  • It may be possible but hard i would have to take into account image/font height and know how high the text editing portion of the book is
  • blame devcat for including an alpha in their color #FF001122 looks like a piece of junk when rendered
  • pictures i'm still working on
  • thought so didn't apear as a tag accord to w3schools
  • ok i guessed incorrectly it was the double lines...

i got 200 from Category:In-game_Books i'm not doing collection books thier html/xml is coded different...

small change will still have to be done manually like renaming links but it still beats starting from stratch

  • yes, javascript. you wont be able to use wikitext links to change pages without it because tabs dont anchor the page.
  • if you mean by program to separate them into different sections, that's possible.
  • just remove the FF and it should be fine?
  • k.
  • yep.
  • ja.
  • collection books have different stuff because they change pages once you've collected the page.
  • And a lot of books are missing from the wiki. :D
 
  • you lost me thier i wasn't aware I even had acces to any javascript files...
  • yeah currently the program just moves to a new page whenever it finds a

    tag making it start a new page when 1 page is too long is a fairly complex task.

  • well kinda its a replace of "<font color=""#ff", " to "<span style=""color:#" I was more focused on the major flaws to bother with it...

  • I know why I was gonna finish this before I even started cxollection books
  • Yeah I know i'll have to count the amount of readable books that apear in itemdb.xml sometime
Laden01:22, 19 June 2012
 
  • You don't, lol. Admins do, though.
  • that should make half the job easier. Just find where one half ends/starts and just add a |p#p#
  • -
  • I did just now. 421. :c
 

hmmm and here I was just gonna adbandan the project due to its complexity/template limitations but with a bit of work/help it might just be possible to accuratly programmicly generate these templates.
wow thats alot of translated books nexon sure had thier work cut out for them.
not sure how many of those have working mabi book links though...
... this page is gonna be massive if I generate all them

Laden01:41, 19 June 2012
 

There are some that don't work? o_O

Explains the many translation errors they make, lol.

 

not many but Cor_Meditation_Method_Research_-Intermediate- is an example of one
I've also encounter a few 404 erros when my program goes through all the books in itemdb.xml but that may just be due to some bug, I'll investage into that later when everything else is working properly.
