It might look as if you\'re browsing a message on the IGN boards, but that\'s just because ' + 'I thought it would feel a bit cosier if I made this page in the same style as you are used to ' + ' wink

. ' + 'Plus, I can use the Board style sheet to test my up-and-coming "IGN Markup Preview" script.
\n' + '
So, as you\'re here, you must be looking for a script or two to make your life as a poster on ' + 'the IGN Boards a little easier. I plan to write small scripts and ' + 'bookmarklets, as I find the need, ' + 'or people ask me to write them. Each script will be added as a new post, and I will add it to the ' + 'top of this list with a link to the post in question:

\n' + 'Date Added: 8/5 1:30pm\n' + 'Description: Smiley Art - ' + 'Take a look!\n' + '

\n' + 'Date Added: 11/8/04 11:35pm\n' + 'Description: Automatic Page Refresher - ' + 'Try it!\n' + '

\n' + 'Date Added: 7/5/04 11:48am\n' + 'Description: IGN Markup Bookmarklet - ' + 'Try it!\n' + '

\n' + 'Date Added: 7/4/04 11:30am\n' + 'Description: Members\' Update - Lists Generator - ' + 'Try it!\n' + '

\n' + '
My browser of choice is ' + 'Mozilla, so all the scripts I write are guaranteed to work ' + 'if you also use that browser. A few of them might work in ' + 'other browsers, but I will probably not aim to maintain them for anything other than Mozilla. I want ' + 'to make life easier for you and me after all, so encouraging you to move to a decent browser is a step ' + 'in that direction.
\n' + '
Well that\'s all for the moment! If you want to receive an automatic notification whenever this page ' + 'changes, please click here, and enter your ' + 'e-mail address in the window that pops up.\n' + '

', // // Post 01 // 'This is the first script I wrote for the IGN Boards. Primarily for use by posters who maintain the various ' + 'MU\'s, it was written by request for nintendospy, to add a "Posts Per WUL" ranking list to the Zelda Board MU. It ' + 'has since been modified to produce the three main lists for "Post count" "WUL count" and "Posts per WUL"' + ', keeping a consistent look between the lists.
\n' + '
The generator' + ' takes as input a list of users names, with their current post and WUL counts, plus the list ' + 'with the same data from the previous MU, and outputs the entire list in ranking order, with WUL and ' + 'rank differences from the previous week. The list is formatted using IGN Markup codes, to add ' + 'color and font information.
\n' + '
As more and more people started to use this script, it gradually grew new features, until there are currently ' + 'about a dozen MU makers that use it. I have added \'special\' features for many of them, some of which I ' + 'have already forgotten, but the latest of which was prompted by ' + User.htmlLinkString('tylerjo2007') + ', who prodded and reminded me every week until I had fixed it: it is now possible to add colour and style ' + 'to the usernames in the MU - perfect if you want to keep your resident moderator happy ' + ' wink

. ', // // Post 02 // 'A bookmarklet is a tiny javascript program ' + 'that fits into the URL of a bookmark on your Personal Toolbar in a Mozilla web browser. The great thing about bookmarklets is that they ' + 'operate on the actual document currently in your browser, no matter where that page came from.
\n' + '
My IGN Markup Bookmarklet' + ' is designed to make life easier for you if you want to write messages using ' + '' + 'IGN Markup codes. Instead of, for instance, typing [b]Ocarina of ' + 'Time[/b] in your message (to get \'Ocarina of Time\' in bold), you would just type Ocarina of Time ' + '(without the markup tags), highlight it in the text area and click the bookmarklet.
\n' + '
Why not try it out? Highlight any text in the text box below, and click here.

\n' + '
\n' + '
When the prompter pops up, type b, and click ' + 'Ok. Now look at the text area again. The text that was ' + 'highlighted is now preceeded by [b] and followed by [/b]. Note that the new text (with tags added) is still highlighted, ' + 'so that you can just run the bookmarklet again to add further tags to the text. Try adding color=yellow and hl=blue to ' + 'the example (my favourite highlighting scheme!).
\n' + '
To install the bookmarklet in your browser, right click on the ' + 'same link, and choose Bookmark This Link. Find the bookmark ' + 'you just created, open its properties, and change the name from here' + ' to IGN Markup. Move the bookmarklet into your Personal Toolbar Folder, and it will then appear on your Personal ' + 'Toolbar. Now, whenever you\'re writing a post or PM anywhere on the IGN Boards, you have the same ' + 'functionality available as in the example above!', // // Post 03 // 'Ever sat there waiting for a particular thing to happen on the boards? Waited for a reply to a topic in ' + 'which you are interested, or a reply to a PM you have sent? Normally you would just hit the "' + 'Reload" button every now and then, and look to see if the thing you are waiting for has happened ' + 'or not.
\n' + '
Enter the ' + 'Automatic Page Refresher. Simply enter a URL and a number of seconds between refreshes, ' + 'and this little script will do the job for you.
\n' + '
I use it all the time, and find it very useful indeed!', // // Post 04 // 'Here is a cool piece of smiley artwork, which has (un)fortunately been disabled from the boards now ' + ' sad
