Code Database Region/Game ID Incorrect (James)

[Panda On Smack]

Noticed that the Game ID isn't correct to the region?

RSBA is code for region free.

All regions = A

RSBE01 is NTSC though and that has it as PAL

It's because the right hand region is nudged a line up

That's because you're a good consumer and upgraded to Firefox 3.5.

The region names are using "float: right" and every single browser before FF3.5 got it wrong in the exact same way.
Since FF3.5 is displaying it how it's supposed to be displayed, I now have to figure out a way to remove the offset that the rest of the browsers need; But only on FF3.5.

I will fix it eventually but I still can't find info on how to target only FF3.5.

Heh

It actually is the same in IE, Chrome and Firefox for me

[James0x57]

Do you have the latest versions of each?

It's not like that in FF3, I have IE8 and it's not like that, I don't have chrome because it's garbage but last time I did it wasn't.

[Panda On Smack]

yeah, here is the page in IE8 for me:

Alrighty, they must have all fixed the mistake at the same time. I'll remove the offset from the CSS and anyone not updating their browsers will have all the names/regions down a line.

When I wake up, I'll do this.

You can type in your sleep?!

lol


I'm going to go ahead and move this to off topic now. I'll get to the update soon enough.

by the way

Can the code database site not be hosted on this server and use a database for storage instead of text files?

bit of work but far easier to manage and maintain?

[James0x57]

It is, yes, but when I wrote the database I didn't know how to do database stuff.
It all works though so... no.

Also, if the site is moved, all the passwords are broken and I'd have to pass out new ones. Hopefully it can stay at usbgecko.com for much into the future.
Should the time come that it cannot, I'd like to try to scrape up the monies to get its own place.

Logins aren't a problem as you just store all the user data in a table and that gets taken with you

Happy to help if needed if you ever do update it all
