There needs to be a limit on names - Number of letters limit

[italianstal1ion]

OK, I don't know if anyone has noticed " yoavscvzxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

but his name has totally screwed up the charts and pushed over the name list over a lot. There should be a 20-30 letter limit on names that upload scores to Divra's charts so this doesn't happen.

Thoughts?

Haven't noticed... but yeah... that surely s*cks! 30 letters in one name is also too much... I think 20 is enough!

[Divra]

There was a limit on 20 characters (might not have worked correctly), which I changed to 15 now. It only changes what is shown, the full names are still stored and used for anything else.

Still stretching here. Using Firefox 3.

How many characters does it show? And where?

[PQED]

In the player table, showing the entire name italianstal1ion posted.

Ok, player table is fixed but while doing it I noticed how slow it is... Not so weird since there are over 2000 rows in that table. I really should split it up into pages with maybe 100 on each?

Sounds good to me.
The song table for each player (if a lot of songs has been played) takes a fair amount of time to load as well, perhaps something similar can be done for that?

I made a test page, I could use this method for both users and songs. What do you guys think about it? I think the links at the bottom might be better as buttons?
This is the first time I used AJAX, it's pretty cool...

for me, time to load/see is more longer with it (than 1 page) but this method works fine, perhaps you could add a link to see GHxx,PH song table for each player

Yeah, it is slower than I hoped... I'm pretty sure I can make the GH/PH pages, at least tomorrow

For the song tables I was thinking maybe they could be split up alphabetically (say A-F, G-L, and so forth)?

Also a good idea, which shouldn't be too hard to do. That would probably be the best for the user table too.

I just checked back on this topic..

Hey alright, thanks for fixing that so quickly Divra

[Divra]

No problem
New version of the song table, with both 'by letter' and 'by game' navigation, what do you think?
