League Scores
April 01, 2004 at 04:46PM View BBCode
MooVoLong is on a roll. There is a new page called League Scores that will show the scores for all games in your league for a given date. You can see the page under the Games menu.Let us know your feedback.

I just noticed an issue while viewing this in Mozilla. Sometimes the score table will span the full width of the page (it's supposed to be only 50% width). Hitting reload then displays it correctly. I have no idea what would be causing that...anyone got a clue?

make sure you close all your tags with the same ones you opened, i.e. close th with th and td with td

I'd suggest skipping the calendar part of the SI web design.

That's a great addition... The presentation is little hard to read as it is kind of spread out from right to left. Might I suggest an alternate presentation based on a popular web site?[url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/scoreboards/2004/3/31/]Click here for an alternate idea[/url]

We're going to go through this page as a group during the chat today. Come on in if you're interested in giving ideas.

Adding the team record next to the team name could be another enhancement to this.

Ooops, how embarrassing! :rolleyes:
Was it only on the previous/next links?
Thanks!

I only looked at that table so that's the only placed I noticed it. It's not embarrassing though, that stuff happens all the time and certain browsers are pickier than others.

The layout of this page has been updated. Let us know what you think.

I forgot to add the logos with the team names, so I'll stick those on there along with any other suggestions anyone has.

You have the winning and losing pitcher... any chance the pitcher with the save can get in there, too?

I don't store that in the database yet. Maybe we can add the saving pitcher in the future.

I think the size of the team names and the spacing could use some work - especially when a team has a long name.

The overall table containing the scores has width=70%. Maybe that should be changed to an absolute, maybe 700, to give more space for 800x600 browsers.
The team names could be resized to normal instead of +1. Would this look ok compared to the normal-sized pitcher names? Also, the 16-pixel version of the logo could be used instead of the 32.
Any other ideas to adjust that?

How about adding NOWRAP to the cell, which will force the table to get larger when necessary?[Edited on 4-5-2004 by celamantia]

I would also suggest getting rid of the FONT tag and using a stylesheet entry to format the team name cells. There are also a LOT of links, and thus a lot of underlined blue stuff, on this page. I suggest removing the FONT tags and changing each TD containing a team name to TD NOWRAP CLASS="leaguescoresteam" and add the following to the estyles stylesheet:
.leaguescoresteam
{
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
FONT-SIZE: 140%
}
.leaguescoresteam A:hover
{
COLOR: blue;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}
.leaguescoresteam A
{
COLOR: black;
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}
This style will increase the font size and cause the team names to turn underlined and blue only when they are hovered over.

In fact, after looking again, every TD in this table should be NOWRAP (but only those with team names should have the "class="leaguescoresteam".

On the nowrap's, do you only mean all the TD's within the table for each game, or do you think every TD in the whole table structure needs it?
I wouldn't mind moving all the width's, cell spacing, bgcolor's, etc out of the table tags and into CSS. It might clutter estyles too much to put it there, but could I create a <style> section on this page for that?

I usually leave the cellspacing in the table where it's easier to tinker with, but I do move row highlight background colors to a style and apply it to the TR.
For the nowraps, I was worried also about the cells with pitcher names, as they wrap ugly, too. If you get those and the team names, you'll be fine.

If you find you have a lot of styles for a particular page, you could create a separate style sheet for that page. Just link to that page after the estyles link. Any styles that conflict will come from the sheet that's linked last (I do this to create "printer friendly" pages; I have a printer-friendly style sheet that overrides the non-printer-friendly styles.)I usually leave the cellspacing in the table where it's easier to tinker with, but I do move row highlight background colors to a style and apply it to the TR.

That's a good addition. The only thing I don't like about it is that I have to scroll down to see the last box score. Can you make the font a little smaller to eliminate scrolling?
celamantia
No. :)
The font size isn't the cause of your problem, it's the logos. I think the use of the 32x32 logos here looks much better than the 16x16 logos would, though. The spacing between the games could be tightened up, though... I think it's the BR's after each game which is spacing them out so much, but that's probably by design... MooVolong, can we try it without the BR's to see how it looks?
