  Re: LEGO Set Lists (was: Re: Announcing new set database)
 
(...) Yep!! Extremely useful..:-) At least an "input set list page" where we can input our sets by simply clicking on check boxes or such. Something like summary pages of set searches. I think including the input functionality to the current (...) (24 years ago, 20-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

(...) Throw me $100K and I can guarantee that. :-) (...) Could you make use of an export-as-CSV (or tab-separated text) feature? (...) Looking forward to that, ya! (...) This is just a tiny step in the right direction! :) --Todd (24 years ago, 20-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: LEGO Set Lists (was: Re: Announcing new set database)
 
(...) Todd/Suze, this is awesome! If you can promise me you won't have a server crash I'll delete my Excel collection database :] The parts count is really slick, too, something I was doing in Excel. I think a big plus out of all of this as well is (...) (24 years ago, 20-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: LEGO Set Lists (was: Re: Announcing new set database)
 
(...) Cool. Nice & quick interface. It didn't take me more than an hour or so of free time to enter my sets (from fuzzy memory). Now you give me a piece count, and I find out I've got more LEGO than I thought! Always a good thing. :) (24 years ago, 19-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: LEGO Set Lists (was: Re: Announcing new set database)
 
(...) incredible. I didn't post about it then, but I started discussing a deal to buy a set from someone based on the fact that they posted a desire to sell within an hour of the first time I looked at the new set database format. The deal isn't (...) (24 years ago, 19-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  LEGO Set Lists (was: Re: Announcing new set database)
 
(...) Here ya go -- (URL) you'll see there is everything you've entered, minus the ratings and the text notes. And when other people view your list, they only see the "Public" lists (i.e., numbers that you filled into the boxes labeled "Public"). (...) (24 years ago, 19-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database) !

(...) Just did, about a half hour ago -- try again now. :-) (...) I haven't added that yet. Maybe Sunday. --Todd (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Announcing new set database
 
(...) I'm waiting for it..:-) By the way, two other recommendations: * How about putting the two white/blue arrows at the bottom of the page? It would be very nice especially when browsing around multipage results of range querries. * How can we (...) (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Announcing new set database
 
(...) Yeah, that works. Thanx! (...) for (...) the (...) list wasn't expandable or anything so that I could click directly on a specific sub-theme or whatever. Going to a major them, and then browing the thumbnails until I find a member of a (...) (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Announcing new set database
 
(...) Nope, it was always there (I just checked). BTW, are you sure you aren't seeing "21–40" now? There should be a ";" after the "&#150", otherwise it's grammatically incorrect HTML, and you'd probabaly see "20" followed by a splotch (...) (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Announcing new set database
 
(...) I could have sworn that when I looked at the page source the first time, it was just "2140", but now when I look it is "21&#15040". Yes, it doesn't come out on Netscape 3.01 on Solaris (I know it's old, but our sysadmins always have "more (...) (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Announcing new set database
 
(...) Until there's an "advanced" search with more options, one thing you can do is something like this: (URL) put in whatever year you like). In the meantime we should also add some links on the entry page to specific years. --Todd (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  RE: Announcing new set database
 
Hi Guys, Thanks for the improvements! One issue I've had for awhile is how do I search for all sets in a given year? If I type in 1980 (as a year) for example, I get set 1980 (Elves) made in '91. Thanks, Mark (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Announcing new set database
 
(...) Hmm. I see an en-dash there (not a hyphen and not an em-dash but an en-dash). That doesn't show up for you? What browser/OS were you viewing with? It's using entity – there, which is kind of a Microsoft-ism in character set terms, but I (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Announcing new set database
 
Looks great! One bug and one suggestion: (1) The bug is that there is a missing range indicator at the top of a listing, e.g. go to (URL) and follow the quick link to trains. The first screen is OK --- it has "First 20 of 224 Set Matches". But then (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Announcing new set database
 
(...) That's when I grab my clue stick and don my taunting hat, and hunt down the page author. :-, (...) If the frame name is relatively unique, then it's really no issue. If I have a dozen Netscape windows up, but only one has the frame name (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
