    Any of you computerologists know how to go about fixing the format/display of the FFL Transfer List there in the DIY section?

    Or, is it worth fixing? Does anyone use it?

    Point being, I made that list 'some years ago' and I haven't got a clue what I used for a 'template' to start with, but it survived the numerous changes back and forth between galaxies. And I have constantly updated the information, whenever anyone wanted anything added to it.

    Until recently (as in the past few weeks) where it has turned into 'gobble-dee-gook' (that's a technical term) and is near heirogryphically indecipherable.

    So, before the whole thread gets deleted (or should it?) is there a way of making it legible again?
     
    DO NOT delete the information displayed currently.

    Html (google that if necessary) uses "tags" so that the browser (what you use to look at this here) knows how to format the information received from the server (where the 'hide is hosted).

    The FFL list displays incorrectly because of some of the tag structure being messed up. All you need to do is to fix the tag structure and things will be fine again.

    I could fix this for you but it would be more valuable for you if you did it yourself. Read a tutorial on how to create html tables and then correct the messed up page accordingly. It is really simple, much simpler than reloading or shooting well.
     
    Here's a start. I fixed some of it for you. You'll need to space it (the entries) out. I wasn't sticking <p> </p> tags in all day.

    Paste the original 'gobble-dee-gook' into WORD or something similar and then use 'Find and Replace' to correct the tags.
     
    That's what I did, but the old board s/w used [ ... /] instead of < ... />, and the online HTML parsers, after I stuck in HTML, BODY, etc., wasn't kickin' back auto-spacing. All he needs to do is to copy/paste and then use carriage returns.
     
    ok Thank You guys. I have some work cut out for me. At least now I know a few things. A) it IS possible, and 2) it seems to be wanted.

    I'm right in the middle of doing other things at the moment, so I'll get to this. To be continued. And yeah, before this I didn't even know what a 'parse' was, let alone that I had a few missing. Anyone got a few extra parses?

    :D
     
    Find a FFL:

    Go to Gunbroker
    Scroll down main page to Buyers
    Scroll down to "Find an FFL". Click.
    Follow instructions.
    Done. Free. And the fees are listed.
     
    OK, for any/all who're interested, I've got the list back up and it's somewhat legible. A number of ya'll have stated that it is useful and viable. A few have alluded to "don't bother".

    To each their own, and I've simply intended to help out 'Hide members. If you think that's a bad thing, don't go there.

    Anyone else want anything added to the list, hit me up via a PM. I want to keep that "just a list" and not a bunch of pages of posts. Thanks. Simpler/cleaner/concise'er that way.

    And if anyone has any humanly capable methods of making it look purtier again, feel free. I tried numerous times, and failed miserably. I can run a lathe, strop an edge, lay a bead, draw a bead, and even draw a plot plan. But speak computer-geek, and I'll simply resort back to hammer, chisel and slate. And a big F'n hammer, at that!

    Well, since today is technically a holiday even though I've spent all morning working as usual, I can take a crack at it.
     
    Jesus... This raw structuredly unstructured structure is structurally ugly.

    Almost done, though. I removed Devil Dog Armory since that dude pretended to be a marine. Also realized I know quite a few cities and can recognize them admidst confusing context.
     
    How's this look? I can change the style easily (read, my computer will do it) now.
