Now this is really Great!! I really like it! ^^

These organization ways are just incredible.

I seemed to have spotted an error in the page though, I'm not sure if I'm the only one but we'll see. It seems when you click on the lap organization there's a bunch of new, blank rectangles at the bottom of the page.
Should be easy to fix. Of what I've seen this problem only apears to be in the overall lap total area. ^^

Other than that This is awsome

EDIT: By the way, since you can view the 3 different organization ways for Overall, Ntsc and Pal. Would it be possible to do it for country as well? Or is the method of doing it quite different?

Thanks for the positive feedback guys!!

The error you mentioned is now fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.

Yes, I considered sorting Course, Lap, and Speed totals and points by country. It is certainly possible, but the amount of programming to do a country sort is quite large, so I decided that it's not worth it to me to create it. I feel that this new system will give you guys plenty of data to wrap your brains around ... IMHO, it's not all that important for someone to know that they moved from 17th to 16th in "USA Lap Total." And if you move from 4th to 3rd for example, that's pretty easy to see for yourself. Plus, I have to stop somewhere ... I have nightmares about seeing DVM's name on a "Belgium Joker Cup Speed Points set on a Tuesday" page.

Maybe I could add it in the future if I have nothing else to do, but right now I'm WAY behind in building the PHP pages. Not only do I need to create this new sorting system for SNES and FZMV, but I still need to convert the FZMV track rankings and profiles, plus the FZX profiles to PHP. And all of that is secondary to building the entire FZGX section!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, with this new PHP coding ability I've learned, in the distant future I will change the FZX track rankings to put course/lap/speed all on one page (just click the column header to re-sort), and also change all track rankings to include a country sort. I know that those of you who like this new country sort thing are now drooling at the thought of track ranking country sorts!

Oie.

I hope all this doesn't make you go crazy.
I'm sure many people are crazy about the country track rankings though.

By the way, will the FZGX page start in php format? Just out of curiosity.

Yep, it'll start in PHP, I don't want to have to build it and then rebuild it ... I do that frequently enough as it is! LOL

OK, test is over. I'm happy with how it works. FZX player rankings with PHP country and totals sorts is now online! FZMV will follow hopefully tomorrow, then I'll start on SNES.

Dave: While I'm thinking about this.....

How about a change in forum please?? These popups are getting VERY annoying since they come up with every page change.

http://www.phpbb.org will have the setup files.

I agree with Barry J. Herbert II on this one, Dave. The pop-ups on this message board are getting VERY obnoxious. The pop-ups are overwhelming ( although shutting them down gives me something to do while the page loads ).
The new format for fzerocentral does looks great.

I'm sorry that you're getting annoyed, but I'm gonna be stubborn on this one. I already changed forums once before, and I really like the one we have now. Living with popups is a CHOICE these days ... you don't HAVE to deal with them. Do what I did, get a popup blocker program. (I use StopZilla.) I don't get ANY popups!!

Before a while ago, pop ups on this messageboard could be stopped by keeping one open, and no new ones would appear. However, this trick seems to have disappeared now, so just use Dave's way: a program.

Ah. Well, I am using ZoneAlarm on my system(which stops the popups). Works well enough. Just have to shut it off if I want to modify a post(or any mod jobs. lol).

Ah well, just have to deal.

I think Berry and I both agree on this one:
Using these sorts of 'programs' is exactly the kind of thing that 'they' want you to do.
Join me in sticking it to the man by not using a popup blocker. In fact, I think that Fzero Central should change to a newspaper format with weekly mailings to its subscribers! I will draw the funnies and Dave can be the editor who smokes big cigars and wears one of those tennis visors made out of see-thru green plastic.
I nominate Barry for assistant editor and Kort can be the spunky and still-wet-behind-the-ears kid reporter!
Our newspaper will provide scoop after scoop, each edition besting the last! Our gimmick will be that on the inside of the front page is a naked girl. Ooh! or GORILLA! Yeah, a naked gorilla on page 2. Every week, a new, sexy, naked gorilla playing a different Fzero title and a different track!
We're going to need some prices on gorillas for this one. I'm not rich or anything, but I'd be willing to put a couple bucks in on buying a gorilla (only if it's over 21 so I can go out drinking with it).
Now all we need is a name....
