My suggestion has to do with getting annoyed with the ships stats always opening in the same window, without the option of clicking a button on the screen, 2 get back 2 the last screen. And I was wondering if it is possible 2 get it 2 open in a new window or 2 integrate it into the same window with the PA menu on the left of it.

if you're using internet explorer:
right click --> open in new window
if you're using firefox:
see line 2
or click middle button to open it in a new tab

I already knew that. It would just be easier, in my opinion, if it could be integrated.

That's what the back button is for !!!!

New windows are more disruptive to surfing as any web developer will tell you, and are almost never appropriate.

That's just it; from what i understand he wants it to open in a page like the Mission screen, instead of opening into a new browser window. So the Ship Stats page would have all the fancy headers with your planet name and rank at the top etc, and have the in-game links down the side still so you can easily navigate back to where you just came from.

and maybe add the option to call a specific ship race stat.. like calling up cathaar ships, or terran ship, separately..

Its how i saw it... :\

Doorsdown · 3 Nov 2005, 07:03

that is one of his 2 ideas for a fix but his first idea is already in place i would like to here what browser he has that is causing him this trouble

and

Code:

<a href=stats.pl?rn=7549696 target=_stats>

should be updated to

Code:

<a href=stats.pl?rn=7549696 target=_blank>

Just 2 clear up the original question, I already know the ship stats R opened in a new window. I think it would be better 4 the PA menu at the left of the traditional PA overview, news, message, etc. 2 appear on the ships stats aswell. Meaning integration into PA, instead of a seperate page opening as it does into part of the manual.

I hope that makes it clearer

Doorsdown · 3 Nov 2005, 16:47

ah well yes it would and thanks for clearing your question up
