[edit] SkillCheck
Just a note to anyone who is watching my talk page...
I am now (finally) really to release my SkillCheck plugin. After quite a lot of coding and waaaaaay too many bugs to be healthy, it appears to be working enough to be released. You can find out more information here - if you are interested in testing it, instructions are on that page.
If you do decide to test it, I would really appreciate you letting me know any of the following issues (plus any others you come across):
- Skills where information is retrieved incorrectly
- Browsers or OSs where the script fails to do anything at all
- Any JavaScript errors the script makes, even if it appears to be working (for IE, this is a yellow exclamation mark in the corner, for Firefox, it's Tools > Error Console)
- Any incidents of conflicts with other scripts of any type
Hopefully some people will find this useful; either way, it was good fun putting it together :).

- Looking through recent changes, I see that some people actually beat me to installing it. As such, I was unable to fix a major installation bug tht prevents it from doing anything at all. To fix it, you'll have to re-subst the installation code in place of the old stuff. Oopsie ^_^ Ale_Jrb (talk) 21:48, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
- Heh, thanks Ale for this, it looks really good! It'll come in useful as well. So far, I can see one problem (and looks like you've seen it too :P ) and that's the speed. When loading a page, it pauses slightly, then carries on. --

- What speed issue are you referring to? I fear that I may not have noticed it due to have a reaaaaly fast internet connection. Where does it slow down? Ale_Jrb (talk) 21:55, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
- Just after any page is loading, it seems to load and take a second to get all the data onto the page. (My internet connection isn't the best, but I haven't had this problem before). It's not a major pause, but it's noticable. I don't really notice the same problem in Internet Explorer, which is weird. For once, IE is faster than Firefox... Also compared it with how it was before I installed the SkillCheck, and it's fine then. I can live with it, like I said, it's not a major problem, but thought you would like to know.-- Brains12 \ Talk \ Contribs 22:04, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
- Ohhh - I think I know what you mean. I barely do notice it, as it loads so fast here, but there is a micro pause between the page loading, and being able to move it. I think this is the script fixing all the links so that the pop-up will appear. Contrary to somewhere like PvX, which handles all the code creation server side (so once the page is loaded, so are the pop-ups), this happens all client side after the page is loaded. I don't know how to optimise it more really. Hmmm.... Ale_Jrb (talk) 22:11, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
