Sounds good. As long as we do it on Owen's terms and provide the links he would like, I think we should. I don't think archiving them here is necessarily a good idea, unless Owen supports it. In addition, I think the main page is in need of rearranging... perhaps with expandable menus, so there's no scrolling involved.--[[User:Knockinabout|Knockinabout]] 15:49, 18 April 2008 (BST) | Sounds good.

Revision as of 01:24, 20 April 2008
Javascript
I was thinking about a link to the chat on the front page. Included in this I wanted a javascript to show random quotes that have come from the chat room. Is this possible in the wiki? (I can post the script if you need me to). Also should/can we embed the chatroom on a page so it has a pilkipedia address?--Knockinabout 18:42, 1 April 2008 (BST)
- i think the link is an excellent idea. and i don't understand anything else about what you've asked. :) hopefully nigel does. Steve is King 23:27, 1 April 2008 (BST)
- Tried to tidy the poster blurb. It looks good on a widescreen monitor but the big white space is still there on a square monitor.--WikiSysop 18:59, 2 April 2008 (BST)
- good man. looks good to me. we won't keep this up long btw ... Steve is King 19:01, 2 April 2008 (BST)

Square monitor? People still have those? Losers.

Here's an example of the random quote generator: http://short.bus.tripod.com/
The white text on that website will change when you refresh it. Here's the script that was used. Wiki-able? Or not worth the bother?
<script language="JavaScript"> var quotenumber = 8 ; var randomnumber = Math.random() ; var rand1 = Math.round( (quotenumber-1) * randomnumber) + 1 ; quotes = new Array quotes[1] = "dyslexics of the world, UNTIE" quotes[2] = "how to make a living off of ignorant assumptions" quotes[3] = "if you are fat, for the love of god DON'T WEAR A BELLY SHIRT" quotes[4] = "home of king biscuit" quotes[5] = "whip terrorism!" quotes[6] = "beware" quotes[7] = "that's not funny, corey" var quote = quotes[rand1] </script>
