        I'll make it work for IE at the end. Right now, firefox or die ;)

      • teleGUISE
        hee hee it doesnt know how to calculate 1999-1-11 .. it doesnt know what day that is :P

        • 2006-06-08 15937, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        yes :D lol - a few strange things yet

        • 2006-06-08 15911, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        updating again - anyhow, that's way too soon to have anything tested seriously

        • 2006-06-08 15931, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        about that list: going top twenty + button show all / collapse ?

        • 2006-06-08 15900, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        ok still not getting to ever warn you.. it just says the day.. nothing else

        • 2006-06-08 15905, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        ok, let make it stable so :p I'll ping in an hour or two for some real tests ;)

        • 2006-06-08 15917, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        ill be passed out by then I think :)

        • 2006-06-08 15950, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        loool. Do you want some coffee ? - i just made some ;)

        • 2006-06-08 15954, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        Shepard: we were trying to come up with a not-so-instrusive but notable way to prevent people from entering bogus release dates. Making it so people won't get pissy about it but warn people that the date they are entering is possibly wrong.

        • 2006-06-08 15919, 2006

      • Shepard
        how annoying :)

        • 2006-06-08 15942, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        Shepard: So if someone enters a release date thats a Sunday for the US it was say Please Verify or Confirm or something of that sort

        • 2006-06-08 15901, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        :)

        • 2006-06-08 15912, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        I think you would agree that if checked the known common 3, UK Monday, US Tuesday, JP Wednesday that it save a lot of incorrect dates.. again a warning so people who enter bootlegs and indie label stuff won't get annoyed but just have a warning.

        • 2006-06-08 15936, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        tele: do we have known usual releases dates for the top twenty, or just for a few of them?

        • 2006-06-08 15910, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        actually really only the 3 I mentioned.. :( .. well canada falls in with US

        • 2006-06-08 15940, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        you could set DE for Monday Wednesday and Friday until it really annoys sheppy and he says theres many releases on other days :)

        • 2006-06-08 15908, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        anyway it could always be changed if something is real bad.. we will never know until we try

        • 2006-06-08 15931, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        USA / CA Tuesday ---- uk fr belgium -> Monday?

        • 2006-06-08 15906, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        your stretching my (guessing/knowledge) i can only give a good answer for what I consistently enter... and FR and Belgium aren't them

        • 2006-06-08 15931, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        neither do I... I'll make a quick check on AMZ fr

        • 2006-06-08 15953, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        I really think the most common days are Monday Wednesday and Friday except for the US

        • 2006-06-08 15904, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        and ho, while am at questions: for "confirmation" dialog, do MB prefer an alert box? or an inline checkbox with a fat red message?

        • 2006-06-08 15906, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        I cant recall many confirmed Thursday, Saturday or Sundays

        • 2006-06-08 15948, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        won't the inline checkbox confuse people into thinking they are removing something?

        • 2006-06-08 15908, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        hmmm unless i add them manually i guess we dont have a total # of releases with a release date... though it appears with the top 4 we cover 1/3 of all releases in the db

        • 2006-06-08 15909, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        dunno. But the checkbox is used on the confirmation when you try to add an artist with a name already in.

        • 2006-06-08 15936, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        (although it's done server side of course)

        • 2006-06-08 15944, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        I'll go with the dialog for now

        • 2006-06-08 15945, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        i guess do it that way... this is all prelim and will be bitched about for years anyway :)

        • 2006-06-08 15955, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        :p

        • 2006-06-08 15951, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        again question: where do I put that button "collapse/toggle" full list?

        • 2006-06-08 15958, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        even if it helps 25% of the new entries thats better than nothing... In the last week ive probably caught 5-10 manually that set the US to a UK date or vice-versa

        • 2006-06-08 15937, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        verified it was a true swap and all.. so that would be 5-10 i wouldnt have to find myself

        • 2006-06-08 15907, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        maybe use a + sign? next to the country box... no.. guess then people would think it was going to expand

        • 2006-06-08 15910, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        i dunno... anyone else lurking care to add any input on that?

        • 2006-06-08 15943, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        is Nyght still playing water games

        • 2006-06-08 15943, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        and we want just one "expand", whatever the number of releases line right?

        • 2006-06-08 15901, 2006

      • Nyght
        nope, sending my husband off to work

        • 2006-06-08 15913, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        well tell us where to stick it :)

        • 2006-06-08 15917, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        the button that is

        • 2006-06-08 15931, 2006

      • Nyght
        ah and I was gonna say if it was up... oh, yeah.

        • 2006-06-08 15953, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        dmp_panda: you mean once you expand they are all expanded

        • 2006-06-08 15907, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        that was my pick, but it's far from done ;)

        • 2006-06-08 15903, 2006

      • Nyght
        I think a plus is wrong if you aren't expanding, because the site uses pluses to expand albums.

        • 2006-06-08 15909, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        yeah the calendar would be a real pisser ;)

        • 2006-06-08 15935, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        ok nyght's back to her 3minute ago answers to my statements ;)

        • 2006-06-08 15950, 2006

      • Nyght
        I had to read over what you'd discussed

        • 2006-06-08 15912, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        nothing... you actually think we said something meaningful ;)... who you kiddin

        • 2006-06-08 15929, 2006

      • Nyght
        well you ask me for input, and I should have some information about it before trying to give input?

        • 2006-06-08 15915, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        Johnny 5 wants Input

        • 2006-06-08 15944, 2006

      • Nyght
        ugh

        • 2006-06-08 15951, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        tele, Nyght: what about an entry in the drop down list itself that says : "More..." ?

        • 2006-06-08 15902, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        or "Show all..."

        • 2006-06-08 15906, 2006

      • Nyght
        That's better

        • 2006-06-08 15901, 2006

      • Nyght
        Show, let's make it errrrr... fit with the others

        • 2006-06-08 15953, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        that is "Show all..." ? anyhow, such text correction may be easily done at the end

        • 2006-06-08 15903, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        going with the drop down entry idea

        • 2006-06-08 15901, 2006

      • Nyght
        That's a pretty good idea... and yeah, Show All.

        • 2006-06-08 15903, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        i think inhouse needs to create a page that shows all the reports he has :) so I dont have to bookmark them all

        • 2006-06-08 15928, 2006

      • Nyght
        That might be helpful. :) call it teleguise's quick pick.

        • 2006-06-08 15942, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        well being it doesn't display an editing suggestions list, i think a user settable page for all servers should have "Custom Report Options" list

        • 2006-06-08 15923, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        that way anyone logging into a test server can easily find neat little things the owner created and may be of use or unique

        • 2006-06-08 15936, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        or should say accessing not logging into

        • 2006-06-08 15916, 2006

      • teleGUISE
        i think ill suggest that to inhouse... if its not too much recoding to add such a thing

        • 2006-06-08 15912, 2006

      • Nyght
        It doesn't sound like it is... at least, the coding of the sheets done and such

        • 2006-06-08 15918, 2006

      • Nyght
        other than that... I don't know.

        • 2006-06-08 15925, 2006

      • dmp_panda

        plus it asks for confirmation is a US release is not on tuesday

        • 2006-06-08 15959, 2006

      • dmp_panda
        or a non-US release is on Sunday/Saturday
