Permanent status bar!

by **stigmatt** on Sat Oct 14, 2006 8:49 am

Permanent status bar below "Personal menu" needed.

There won't be any need if on every game screen there will be a bar, showing status in all ur active games. Not only showing when it's ur turn, but a kinda "turn status" we habe in "Players" table. It should be real time updated, so there won't be any need to look through all ur games u participate in all the time to find out what is going on in all ur active games.

Isn't that similar to the RSS feeders? I thought there was an RSS thing for CC already...

i couldn't make this RSS work with my miranda... still, don't want to multiply the countless number of neverending "useful" utilities.

even popular "notifier" doesn't solve the problem - statistics is not obvious. Can't see who is having his turn in my every game, at what stage of turn he is etc...

CC is an oline BROWSER game, so i think it would be much better to have such built-in feature.

Maybe a small iframe that auto refreshes occasionally with a ticker tape of your games and your turn status?

by **stigmatt** on Sat Oct 14, 2006 11:17 am

maybe, yes!

u catch the clue!

Yea, it makes sense to me. And I don't think it'd be that hard of a thing to put together. Just a little JS to recycle the page occasionally (even the HTML refresh thing?).

JS still would be nice. but a little notice: in many big corporations and even small enterprises only MS Internet Explorer is available. so, all the benefits of JS in Mozilla mean nothing to poor employees in such companies... And that means they don't have all this JS "features" as some others do...

Well, you can still do some JS in IE. Look at some sites with HTML clocks. I think it'd be possible to do with IE.

And if not, force the companies to switch to Firefox

May the Force be with you

))

Could u give me a clue, how JS from this forum can be applicable with common IE? some special plugins like grease monkey or what?...

P.S. as many other users, don't have any extraordinary programming skills

Look at something like this:

Instead of "blowing up" the page, it could just reset the iframe with the data, thereby refreshing whats there.

Ok, but still, how can i use JS for Mozilla in my IE browsing CC web portal?

by **JerenYun** on Sat Oct 14, 2006 12:56 pm

For your status bar, I think you would just need JS to refresh the iframe every 30 seconds/minute/whatever. It would impliment a counter similar to what I linked you to.

Firefox Portable anyone?
