I added a column to the set year and it's also given to the

An advanced sorting mechanism for the web-view will be added later.

Man, I wish I knew you were changing that :)  I'll need to update
peeron to adjust to the new format.  I'm guessing anyone else who is
parsing the data will need to as well.

Hi Dan,

sorry, I haven't known. It was about inserting an extra column
between "name" and "pcs." only. Do you know who else could be
affected? I would advice these people via eMail.

Another little suggestion - adding new columns at the end will often
eliminate the effect of changes like this (and scripts can even be written
to explicitly expect the possibility of new columns being added at the end).

Of course another way to handle it is if the columns have labels at the top,
scripts could use those labels to find the columns of interest.

Do you mean id-attributes on the <td>-tags?

Regards,
René

(...) Actually, the <td> tags by themselves could be parsed by a program that processes the data to find the title of each column. Frank (18 years ago, 15-Jul-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
