You are so correct. I should have tested the link before opening my mouth. (although hearing the details is interesting). I was speaking from my experience of manually loading URLs with no knowledge of the XML variables. Thanks for the info.

Discussion! Talk about all that you want! Have fun!

Thanks Goobergunch for cleaning up our region page! Balli

Not sure who added the link to the NSEconomy Regional Calculator. The change doesn't show up on the history. It might have been a script run against the database since I see the link on the site a lot.

The problem is the Calculator no longer takes a regional name parameter so none of these links are going to work correctly. Balli

The change was made to the Template:Infobox_Region, so implementation was global. It seems to work fine on all regions except the ones that have always been too big. We're using a variable we just located called {{PAGENAMEE}} (A_Nice_Warm_Cave) which passes along the the name with spaces parsed into underscores. We already knew about variable {{PAGENAME}} (A Nice Warm Cave) which passed the standard pagename with spaces, but we knew that wouldn't work on the NSEconomy calculator. We're using the same paired variables to auto-generate the Region and Nation URLs, and it works like a charm! Frisbeeteria Θtalk 15:35, 21 Oct 2004 (GMT)
