Re: Official OS Table Generators Site Thread

Semi-ignorant question alert...

Is there a way to "view" the html generated in any program I could use to edit what is seen?

For example, when "simming" games in NHL 10 you do not get all the stats in the even the simple boxscore generator, BUT I would still love to use part of that boxscore to list what stats you do see after a sim game.

So I would love to generate the code of a "blank" boxscore and then edit the html until I have what would work...then save it and populate it in the raw html each time.
Make sense?

OR...
Suggest an even simpler "sim boxscore" generator for the actual site maybe???

1. Records of each team
2. Boxscore (with periods, ot, etc)
3. Shots on goal
4. # of powerplays
5. Goalie each team
6. Scorers or even a couple of fields to highlight top players each team

Have a look at what is available after a sim NHL game and let me know if this looks right?
Thank you for all the work on this by the way!!!

Well, when you copy and paste, that is the HTML generated, and you are free to edit it as you please.

The only problem is that it is really unreadable because everything is squished to one line of code. But that's also necessary because if it were properly spaced out, the forum would insert a lot of line breaks into the post and you would get big spaces in the middle of the resulting tables.

If it's not enough to omit the extraneous stats in the simple boxscore generator, the (pretty painful) hackaround is:

1) Generate the boxscore
2) Open it up in an editor such as Notepad++ and properly space out the code so you can read it and make easy changes to it
3) Save a copy of this file as your 'template'
4) Every time you make a new boxscore, make the changes to your 'template' in a different file, and then condense the file so the code is on one line again

That's a real nasty workaround since even though making the template is a one-shot time sink, you're probably going to have to navigate through the html and delete about a hundred lines of spaces each time. So I don't know if I'd go through all that trouble for a boxscore. Editing a clean template sounds nice, but the one-line-of-code requirement really kills it.

Do you know your way around a programming language such as php or python or ruby? If so maybe you could do your own custom simple template locally and enter in the numbers through a neat interface, and have it generate the one-liner code for you. Try using sqlforms in web2py if you want to give it a shot.

You could also paste into Dreamweaver and change the code or take a screenshot and use fireworkds/photoshop to change scores and stats that you need although you will be limited on what you could do that way.

Ah! That would be really smart.

Re: Official OS Table Generators Site Thread

Yep, that's what I did with the code you showed me in the other thread. Then I could just press live view and see what changes until I found osmething I liked. 2 very useful uses for it so far, can't wait for FIFA 11 to come out to use it

Re: Official OS Table Generators Site Thread

I don't have NCAA 11, working on the "Heisman Watch" table though... when viewing this in the game, how many players do they list and what exactly do they list? I was guessing name, pos, year, school and stats?

Could someone post and let me know? Thanks!

it lists - Player Name - Position - Team - Move
and it shows the top 5 players.

for Move it shows an icon, yellow bar(horizontal) to show no movement. Green block arrow up to show if that player move up a spot, and red block arrow down to show if that player moved down a spot.

it shows the stats of the last game played at the top when you highlight that player. however, that is not really a good thing(and wont work for a table). I would suggest something like:

Player Name - Position - Team - Move - Season Stats

for the top 5 players.

and maybe have the season stats optional, if possible, so if someone doesn't want to take the time to type them out, they don't have to.

Great, thank you!

Re: Official OS Table Generators Site Thread

The "Heisman Watch" table generator is now available... see post #145 in this thread to see six examples of how this table can be used... you have the option to post season stats, which results in a wider table, or a smaller table that just lists the top five candidates, their position, team and movement within the rankings.

I've updated NBA logos for the Jazz, Magic and Warriors to match their updated logos for the 2010-11 season.

Re: Official OS Table Generators Site Thread

thank you so much for the heisman watch table. as you know, madden is coming out, meaning, new madden chises will be coming out too. i've been asking this since last year, is there a chance that we might get a award winners table or something like that?

Yeah I can get that done.

I've done some updates to the site, you can read about them on the homepage.

Re: Official OS Table Generators Site Thread

Can these tables be used on other forums? I'm having a tough time trying to get them to work on ipb boards.

Re: Official OS Table Generators Site Thread

This depends if the given forum allows HTML in posts or not. It also depends on the stylesheet of the particular message board and how it may interfere with the stylesheet of the code. If you know css, you make a post on the other board, load it up in Firefox and use the firebug add-on to tweak it until you get the style definitions right. If they don't allow HTML you are out of luck. Unless you post it here, take a screenshot, then post there as an image.
