Yet another Briefing Problem.
« on: 04 May 2004, 00:36:24 »
Hi.

I am making a Briefing for a mission that I am making at the moment and so far I have managed to overcome most of the obstacles, but have ran into one from whihc I don't know how to fix.

What I am trying to do is to make a Briefing with extra pages accessed by links. But so far I have manahed to get one link working but for some reason the second link does'nt work and for some reason when I open the working one the message I have made for the second on is in the working one...

I'll show you what I have written in my script.


<head>
<title>Briefing</title>
</head>

<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

<! ****************************************** >
<! **** Notes section in handwriting >
<! ****************************************** >
<h2><a name="Notes"></a></h2><h6>
Bla Blah Blah Yaddy yadda.
</h6><hr>

<! ****************************************** >
<! **** Plan section >
<! ****************************************** >
<p><a name="Plan"></a>

<! **** Mission plan text **** >
Mission begins at 05.30.
<br><br>
<a href="#Situation">Situation</a><br>
<a href="#Intel">Intel</a><br>
</p><hr>

<h2><a name="Situation"></a>Situation</h2>
<p>
<br>
Blah Blah Blah
<br><br>
Blah Blah Blah
<p><hr>

<h2><a name="Intel"></a>Intel</h2>
<p>
<br>
-Enemy Numbers are said to be within 30-40 Infantry.
<br><br>
-The Enemy are mainly Armed with guns...
<br><br>
-Enemy Morale is said to be high and will act aggressively under fire. etc.
<br><br>
<p align="left"><img src="mission_screenshot_2.jpg" width="198" height="114">
</p><hr>

For some reason "Intel" has moulded itself with "Situation" when in the editor.

Hope someone can find what is wrong with this...

Cheers.

Thats what I used tho. I don't think Chris's Script editior has an option for making extra pages like that...

-The Enemy are mainly Armed with guns...

 :hmm: What else? Flying chickens? :hmm:

Anyway, try changing the names. Like "Intel" to "Int" and Situation to "Sit". Just an idea.

:beat: *Gets Shot* :beat:

Here's a generic template I use for my briefings - just plop in the text where you need it.  It's simple but it gets the job done...you can add bells and whistles on your own ;)

Hope this helps you :)
