@Purge+ I need to make a correction.
Points is just kill points, no powerball, flag, king of the hill, etc points. Purely kill points. I think Flag Points is everything but Points (kill points).

Someone correct me on that if I'm wrong.

Smong · Posted: Wed Jun 20, 2007 4:59 pm Post subject:

Kill points have to be strictly kills only otherwise it would mess up your average and rating. As a sidenote *points on subgame converts all points to flag points so will mess up those 2 stats anyway.

Also why is this topic going in parallel on two forums? This makes it harder to keep track of what's going on.

May find a directory with the following files at http://www.hlrse.net/scores.

readme.txt (Currently an Explanation Guide to clear up things)

Code: Show/Hide

Main Stuff:
$title       This is where the website title will be outputted.
$sortnumber    This is the number of players per page that will be displayed.
$sortcategory This is the name of the category that the data is sorted by.
$cssfile    This is the filename and/or location of the CSS file to load.
$zonename    This is the name of the zone data is generated for.
$form       This is where the contents of a fully parsed and manipulated form.html is placed

Categories:
$number       This is where the place numbers will be outputted (ie "1." "2." "34." "53.").
$player       This is where the player name will appear.
$squad       This is where the squad name will appear.
$wins       This is where the number of wins (kills) will appear.
$losses       This is where the number of losses (deaths) will appear.
$ratio       This is where the ratio of wins (kills) to losses (deaths) in simplest form is outputted.
$rating       This is where the rating ((points(10)+(wins-losses)100)/(wins+100)) is displayed.
$average    This is where the average (points/kills) is outputted.
$points       This is where the number of points is displayed.
$flagpoints    This is where the number of flag points is displayed.
$totalpoints    This is where the number of total points (points+flag points) is displayed.

Points vs Flag Points Explanation:
$points       This is where the number of points is displayed.
$flagpoints    This is where the number of flag points is displayed.
$totalpoints    This is where the number of total points (points+flag points) is displayed.
There has been a small controversy about the difference between Points and Flag Points. To
clear all of this and confusion up, points are strictly kill points (points that you get
from killing other players). Flag points include the following kind of points: flag rewards,
flag-game wins, king of the hill, *points, and soccer.

Form $sortcategory Explanation:
<option value="$sortcategpry">$sortcategpry</option>
See [Categories] in scoreman.ini. Those are what will be placed accordingly into this
list. Everything under [Categories] will be inputted into the form during manipulation
(which is in the process of generating the webpages for the scores). You can change the
category strings as you please.

CSS ss_ Prefix Explanation:
You will notice that the prefix ss_ is the beginning of all the CSS styles. If you have a
website (hopefully taking advantage of CSS and using a CSS file), the CSS for this plugin
will not interfere with your website and it's CSS. There are less chances of this plugin
messing up someone's website if CSS style names are made unique by using a prefix. If your
website happens to use the same prefix, them you should change them. There is no reason for
anyone's website to be constructed with the ss_ prefix.

CSS Body Style Explanation:
body.formpage{}
body.statsbody{text-align: center;}
You can put class="formpage" or class="statsbody" in a <body> tag to load the styles for this.
The reason for having this is so that you could customize specific styles for the page that
the form is on, and styles for the popup window where the statistical scores data is presented.

Scoreman.ini ArchiveEarly Explanation:
SaveTime = 360;       // The amount of time in minutes to regenerate and update online scores
ArchiveTime = 1;       // The amount of time in weeks to archive the last set of data for historical reference
ArchiveEarly = 60;       // The amount of time in minutes to archive the last set of data early, see Readme for details
There is an extremely good reason for having this command. ArchiveTime is like a season, period,
or semester. If ArchiveEarly is set to 60 (1 hour), 60 minutes (1 hour) before ArchiveTime ends
it will archive the current scores. ArchiveEarly should not exceed SaveTime. For example:
SaveTime > ArchiveEarly
360 > Any number within the range of 0 and 359
Setting it to 360 is not allowed (it cannot be equal with SaveTime or more than SaveTime). Setting
ArchiveEarly to 0 is basically disabling this feature; it means that it will regenerate data and
create an archive after how ever many weeks ArchiveTime is set to.
Archiving will automatically regenerate data (to make it the most up to date) before archiving this
data for future reference.

Scoreman.ini ArchiveDates Explanation:
ArchiveDates = 0;       // See the Readme file for details on using this
This information is used for the form itself. By default a user views the "Current scores" but
will also have a list of archived dates to choose from. These are the dates that the archive was
made on. Use these numbers to help you customize exactly how you want the dates to be displayed.
0 ... Apr 1, 2007
1 ... April 1, 2007
2 ... 4/1/2007
3 ... 2007 Apr 1
4 ... 2007 April 1

score.focus() ;

}

EDIT :: I'm trying to minimize on these large "SPAM" posts. Just a side-note.

Smong · Posted: Fri Jun 22, 2007 7:43 am Post subject:

A small technicality about the form submission/popup.

Normally when you submit a form the page reloads and shows the results. This works by the browser attempting to load a page URL looking like:
showresults.php?sortcategory=Ratio&sortnumber=10
Note the browser generates this URL automatically, no extra code is required such as javascript.

Now the problem comes in trying to get the pop-up window to change "location" to this page. So if a form exists in window A how can I get it to submit to window B?

What I will attempt to do is generate the query string (the bit in green above) using javascript, something like this:

Code: Show/Hide

sortcategory = getElementById
sortnumber = getElementById
window.open("showresults.php?sortcategory=" + sortcategory.value + "&sortnumber=" sortnumber.value, "score", "width=750,height=550,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes");

Anyone want to chip in with a better way? Or has anyone got a full copy of the old scores site? That sub(f) function LC posted looks incomplete, since there is an "f" parameter that doesn't appear to get used. That and the popup's location is set to "" (empty string).

It doesn't seem like Mattalic[reborn] is right for the job (time-wise). He just never seems to be available and I haven't heard of progress from Smong for quite a while now. Anyone want to replace Mattalic[reborn] as plugin coder and co-operate with Smong?

I'll toss in a free beginners plan from hlrse.net if you want one. -_-

School carried me away. I'll try to get this back on in-progress and off the ground.

Irony is that people actually want this plugin and are waiting for its release, but there aren't enough coders out there that would seemingly care enough to get this done ASAP (and without having constant long-term interruptions). I've still got the $25 offer open.

allshallperish doesn't want any money (anything as a matter of fact).
Smong will receive his $25 upon project completion.

Something I did awile ago, it sends a nick, zoneid and date to edome.fi.soneraplaza.net or did b4 it went down.. Then rips the html source and navigates the DOM leeching the data then loads the next previous date all the way back to 1999.

I password protected it cause its crude to leech from another site like this, but that dont matter anymore.
You wont be able to run the application anymore, because edome is no longer with us, but you can still load a saved document, or view the save from the 2nd link below.

PW is "OK"

Then type "Fly Swatter" (CaSe SeNsiTiVe)
