Having an annoying problem whilst trying to edit a HTML Page

by Cody 94 x 7/1/2013, 18:37

Im the owner of fifagamingleagues.forumotion.co.uk and im trying to edit the transfer rules you can find in the manager centre, every time i go to click submit this pops up ..

Any ideas how to fix this ?

You could try deleting the old page and creating a new one with a slightly different name. Not sure how well it would work, but if it's a problem with one page only, that might do the trick.

[EDIT: Likely not the issue, but are you sure that the HTML you are trying to put in there is valid? ]

by Cody 94 x 7/1/2013, 18:49

it works as it is, but i want to add more rules to topic, do u think it may be due to there being to much writing on the page or maybe ive used up my storage ?

by Darth Apple 7/1/2013, 18:51

What are you using your storage for at the moment? If it's just HTML pages, and users aren't using too many attachments at your forum, I doubt storage is the problem. It would be hard to fill 20 MB in HTML pages.

As far as too much writing, I checked your website, and I highly doubt that's the issue. I do know that forumotion limits the size of HTML pages, but it would be difficult to reach that limit with what you are using them for. BTW are you using any kind of composer/page generator for the code, or are you writing it all by hand? Some composers tend to bloat their code, or may put invalid code in the page that might trip things up.

well i dont really know what uses up the storage, if u just have a quick look through the site could u let me know if theres anything on there that maybe taking up some of the storage,

and i use a site called html.am to create my coding

by Darth Apple 7/1/2013, 19:04

It might be html.am that's causing the issue then. I rewrote the code for the contents of the page for you using cleaner HTML than the composer did. Try editing this code and let me know if it works.

<center><h1>Each squad starts the season with £50,000,000</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>If by the End of the pre season transfer window your budget comes under £0,000,000 or your squad size is over 23 or under 19 you will have your highest rated player BANNED for 6 matches</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>If by the End of the mid season transfer window your budget comes under £0,000,000 or your squad size is over 23 or under 19 you will have your highest rated player BANNED til end of season</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>If by the end of the season your budget comes under £0,000,000 you will be placed under a FGL transfer embargo, This means you have to sell players until your budget is greater than £1,000,000 before you can bring in any more players</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>if you sign someone in one transfer window you cant offload that player til next window</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>You will get punished if you do not follow this rule or any other FGL Rules</h1></center><br>

[EDIT: About storage space, you can see if you've used your storage up by going to ACP -> modules -> gallery (on the sidebar) then click the storage link. It will tell you what percentage of your 20mb is used. ]

[EDIT 2: I don't see anything on there that would cause storage problems, personally. I think it's probably something else. ]

this is what it says in my storage: http://gyazo.com/7b734b89e4157b7c211295627522a22e

are there only a certain amount of html pages i can create?

Well this is what i want to add to the rules:

Free Agents

Create a new topic in the transfer offers section with the free agents name that you want along with his position,rating,price of player and add the name of your club, e.g Anderson 77 CM - To Bayern - £15,000,000

Prices for Buying Free Agents:
Under 70 Rated = -2mil
71- 75 Rated = -10mil
76 - 80 Rated = -15Mil
81 - 85 Rated = -20mil
86 and higher rated = -25mil

You may only buy 4 free agents and release 4 players in one season

Externals

What is an External?
An external is a player that is not already on the site e.g Neymar is not on the site as Santos are not on here.

- Each Manager can only have 2 externals
- in the event two managers go for the same player, who ever posted first gets the player
- Teams you cant players from: All Division 1 Teams , All Division 2 Teams apart from that you can get players from any clubs.

- Final Rule ... HAPPY EXTERNALS and keep an eye on your squad size and transfer budget!

Prices:
70 - 75 = £10mil
76 - 80 = £15mil
81 - 85 = £20mil
86+ = £25mil

** Template on how to buy an external**

(TOPIC) De.Rossi CDM 86 - From Roma - To Bayern Munich - For £25mil

(In the Text Box underneath) simply type 'confirmed' or 'agreed/I agree'

Releasing Players

Maximum amount of Players you can release = 4 Players
Maximum number of Free Agents you can buy = 4 Players

Prices for Releasing Players:
Under 70 Rated = +1mil
71- 75 Rated = + 5mil
76 - 80 Rated = + 10Mil
81 - 85 Rated = + 15mil
86 and higher rated = + 20mil

if possible could you add the coding onto the bit ive just added so i can see if it works, also it would be gret if you could bold and underline the headings ( Free Agents , Externals , Releasing Players

EDIT: I just tried The coding you just sent me and it allowed me to submit that, isit possible ive just tried to add to much to the html page because there is alot of coding the way ive done it.

P.S where did u find out how to do that coding?

by Darth Apple 7/1/2013, 19:18

Did replacing the code that you had before fix the problem? If the cleaner HTML solved the problem, I'd be glad to do the coding for you. I might not have eit done by tonight, but I can give it a shot. Smile

[EDIT: About the maximum number of HTML pages allowed, there is a limit. I forget exactly where it's at, but if I remember correctly, it is at least 128 pages. From the looks of it, you are nowhere near hitting that limit. ]

by Cody 94 x 7/1/2013, 19:24

i only have 22 HTML pages but im guessing there was to much coding put into that transfer rules html page from html.am and that maybe preventing me from submitting it ?

could that be possible?

are there any other sites like html.am that provide cleaned up codes like the one u made for me ?

by Darth Apple 7/1/2013, 19:27

I've never used online pagemakers, personally. For me, I've always known how to write the code myself, but it's always easier to use a generator. I use openoffice/libreoffice personally, which is free, and it has always worked great with forumotion, although they give bloated code too.

Also, I'm almost done coding what you sent me. I'll pm you when I'm done. Smile

[EDIT: Check your PM inbox for the code with the new rules you wanted. Smile

by Cody 94 x 7/1/2013, 19:34

Thanks for the code mate,

it still wont let me add the new rules tho

this is really weird aint it :S

by Darth Apple 7/1/2013, 19:42

That's very strange. I did a little research, and apparently forumotion has some censored words. "buy" is one of those words. I replaced every instance of "buy" with "purchase" and it worked on my test site. Try this code:

<html>
<center><h1>Each squad starts the season with £50,000,000</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>If by the End of the pre season transfer window your budget comes under £0,000,000 or your squad size is over 23 or under 19 you will have your highest rated player BANNED for 6 matches</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>If by the End of the mid season transfer window your budget comes under £0,000,000 or your squad size is over 23 or under 19 you will have your highest rated player BANNED til end of season</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>If by the end of the season your budget comes under £0,000,000 you will be placed under a FGL transfer embargo, This means you have to sell players until your budget is greater than £1,000,000 before you can bring in any more players</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>if you sign someone in one transfer window you cant offload that player til next window</h1></center><br>
<center><h1>You will get punished if you do not follow this rule or any other FGL Rules</h1></center><br><br>

<p style="font-size:20px;">

Sorry about the long post. I hope the moderators don't mind me posting the code here. Smile

by Cody 94 x 7/1/2013, 19:49

its worked Very Happy

ahh mate you are a legend Very Happy

you need to teach me how to do that coding, its much more cleaner than the previous code Very Happy

by Darth Apple 7/1/2013, 19:54

No problem. Smile

As far as learning to write the code, PM me and I can find some good resources tomorrow. The good news is that HTML is pretty easy to understand once you get the hang of it. Smile
