Unfortunately the web host is having a lot of problems with the machine. They say they're working on it, but in the mean time it's been experiencing difficulties. Here are a few test links to show a few of the new features ( links are temporary): I have an Perl/Tk client reading all the XML data including a more efficient access method (it gets the update times from the server then compares them to the dates for its displayed data and only gets new data if needed, though this isn't the final solution I have planned).

the run message list in your local time seems to be having a little trouble with its maths: Information current as of: NaN-NaN-NaN NaN:NaN:NaN Local time

Yomi, I'm considering making a front-end to the player, market, and run listings. What's a good minimum refresh time for me to code for these (It's likely I'll have reasonable defaults, but I really don't want folks hammering the server with my client)?

Yeah, the run listing seems to be several hours (12 or so) behind.

The Run Listing page seems to be not updating for the last 10 hours or so. Oddly the Player Listing seems to be working fine.

The hosts' DNS server dropped again, right after I reinstated hostnames after fixing another issue. Back to IP addresses and it's working again. Thanks for the heads up.

I'd like to move over to the newer system soon, and would like some opinions on formatting for the static pages. Eventually we'll get better pages with settable persistant options but it's not looking like that will be in the near term. Send me a PM, X-Fire, in-game message, or reply as to what you think. Message Log1. Current2. New page basically identical 3. Run highlighting adds run highlighting 4. [url=http://info.hgweb.org/testwebout.pl?type=messages&localtime[/url]With local time[/url] changes times to your browser's local time if you have Javascript running. 3 and 4 can be combined. Personally I've been using that combination for a while now and prefer it. It displays all global messages in the last 3 hours, limited to 50. The current RSS feed is RSS 2.0. It could switch to Atom 1.0. Here are examples in Player List1. Current page2. New page Similar but adds server uptime 3. Adds guilds adds a guild column. While the data/time only shows in the 'Last Updated' section, I could have this change to local time similar to the message log. Market List1. Current Page2. New page uses rollups to allow easier looking at each section. 3. Adds highlighting Highlights open auction items with recent activity. Similarly these could be changed to local times if people like that.

My $0.02: Message log - Liking the local time, run highlighting is OK except when people are shouting for uboros and phelg runs, lol. Player list - Really liking this (uptime & guild listing). Would like local time and second chirikov's suggestion for player class Market list - Don't use it, but really like the sortable table format On formatting - if it's a trivial thing, would be nice to see all data in sortable tables. It could even be done much like the market list with a page combining playerlist and message log data (thinking off the top off my head so ignore if this sounds crazy . The page could have 3 headings (like the market list) Server Uptime, Player List & Message Log that expand into their respective tables. The 'Player List' table would then be list of all servers that you could sort by guild, server#, level, etc. cheers ss edit: also, liking the market list color scheme over the other two

New page added: It's a bit of a work in progress. Let me know if you have any suggestions. - Blank = the run is open
- Green 'I' means a run is in progress -- there is at least one character on one of the maps
- Gray 'C' means the run has been finished on that server.
- Light gray 'P' means someone has opened the portal but the run is not finished nor is anyone on the map.
- Dark gray 'D' means the run has been despawned.
A server reset sets all quests to open. It does not currently track if someone started a hells (or other) run but did not finish it yet not despawn the boss.
