Guelph Pro-Am

[John Coleman]

Does anyone know if the Guelph games are live? I can't find a website for the tournament.

Re: Guelph Pro-Am

The Website for the Guelph ProAm series of tournaments: Guelph ProAms

The specific pages for the Guelph Spring ProAm 2009: Guelph Spring ProAm

And the current Pairings: Guelph ProAm Pairings

and standings: Guelph ProAm Standings

Re: Guelph Pro-Am

Hi Patrick:

I was just at the site and I can't see the pairings nor the standings. Is there anything wrong with the site or is there something I need to do to see everything?

Thanks in advance for your help in this matter.

I can see everything, no problem. Thanks to Patrick for updating so promptly. (I kinda wonder why the ad on the CFC site doesn't link to the tournament... or did I miss it?)

Hi,

I am / was having some problems as well seeing the crosstable.
It seems to be the browser.

With Internet Explorer, it seems to work fine for me.

With Mozilla, I only see empty crosstables for both standings and pairings. To be able to see it with Mozilla Firefox, you would have to "select all" under "Edit" in the menu, or just use the mouse over the tables.

Re: Guelph Pro-Am

Thanks Alex!! I use Mozilla and have a way to switch to Internet Explorer if I need to. I was just wondering about the pairings and the results from Round 3.

Thanks again for the help.

Re: Guelph Pro-Am

OK ... so I look at the code under the page ...

No colours are specified for each table or cell ...

It should be using the default code which should be black ... Firefox must not understand using default font colour.

I have changed the text to all be specified to black text ... everyone talks about having to have bloated code for IE ... well I just had to bloat the code by about 50% additional code to specify the text to be black so that it can display in FireFox ... hmmm ....

Have a look now and let me know if it is better ...

(I just hope that I remember to add that code when I update the pages )

I'm not sure I buy that comment about FF "not understanding a default font color". In any case the introduction of a tiny bit of CSS would have saved inserting all those "font color...." entries in every <td> cell. Something along the lines of

table.c1 td {font-size: small;
font-weight: bold;
background-color : #eaf2fa;
color: #563c33;
padding-left: 1em;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}

in a style section at the top of the file, and then using the class "c1" in the table definition:

<table border=1 width="90%" class="c1">

This way every <td> tag in the table will use the properties set by the css; much simpler to tweak as desired.

Re: Guelph Pro-Am

Firefox must not understand using default font colour.

You are defining several times colors at your webpage and you start with a table :
TABLE{
...
color:transparent;
...}

It might get messy.

FF probably one of the browsers who follows standards and it does not try to correct a code opposite to IE.
